Forum Overview :: Motherfucking News :: Re: I am a coke... thief! (bow bow bow bow)

[quote name="Fussbett"][quote name="Liz Enthusiasm"]I heard elsewhere that the formula actually stolen was for a new Coke product.[/quote] Yeah, it says that in the ABC News article I linked (<i>"Coke spokesman Ben Deutsch said the formula for trademark Coca-Cola was not stolen in the theft."</i>) but the public radio people were too excited about sticking it to the man to bother with the finer points. [quote]To me, the whole "Coke formula" thing inspires some skepticism, because anyone that's lived in different geographic areas knows that it tastes different depending on your region. For example, the Coca Cola you can buy in Ontario is a lot sweeter than what they sell in Michigan.[/quote] I agree 200%, I was disgusted with some Cokes on my travels. Though Mexican Coke (the only Coke embargo'ed Cuba gets) was pretty good. I also knew a guy who grew up in Jamaica and he'd always say that the soft drinks there were better because the sugar was from sugarcane.[/quote]
