With today's technology and chemists there's no way Coke could have a secret recipe. Any competitor worth their salt only has to see where the deliveries to the factories come from to see what the ingredients are then the chemists could break it down to quantities.

It has been kept secret because ingredients recipe may be mixed with alcohol, etc which is forbidden by Muslim countries the biggest consumers being Saudis!!!!

Not sure about alcohol but it did apparantly use cocaine in its early days

Took the post from me fingers


As if the people who work in the factory's dont know what they are putting in, they dont know whats being delivered either. They just all walk about blindfolded

Bollocks.

"Trace levels of alcohol can occur naturally in many foods and beverages. Governments and religious organizations have recognized that such minute levels are considered acceptable in nonalcoholic foods and beverages."

Rumors and Facts About Coca-Cola: The Coca-Cola Company.

French researchers measured the alcohol content of Coca Cola at approx. 0.001%. Neither the Saudis nor any other Muslim countries are bothered.

OFF TOPIC:-

When mixing car paint there is a 'machine' you put over exsiting paint and it tells you green, pink blue etc etc that in the sample

OFF TOPIC:-

See on TV victoran killers or something same again bloke put handheld machine over sample came up with what it had in it.

ON TOPIC:-

Sake of argument it's 80% water, 5% fairy dust and 5% sugar

So the workers have to mix the 5% fairy dust at the right time - to stop them snooping it is labeled 5% ADDITIVE

There must be times where the chemical company either send then boxes of fairy dust or relabel it "additive" somebody knowes - with this thread we can sort it.

Also if somebody accidently gets the mix wrong, the one of ONLY two people in the world tastses it do they say "ahh not enough sugar" or do thay say "not enough additive 56s"

There must be at least 15% fairy dust in it Meaty.
