New Coca-Cola Flavors!
Coca-Cola just announced some new flavors to remain competitive with Pepsi Cola:
Of course, I am kidding I was just testing you to see if you were still paying attention.
I wonder how the following flavors would taste...
- Coca-Cola made with Low Fructose Corn Syrup
- Coca-Cola made with Molasses
- Coca-Cola made with Honey
- Coca-Cola made with Salt
- Coca-Cola made with Garlic Powder
- Coca-Cola made with Cholula Hot Sauce
- Coca-Cola made with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar
- Coca-Cola made with Tuna Fish Remains and Whipped Cream
- Coca-Cola made with a choice of Mustard:
- Delicatessen-style
- Dijon
- Plain Yellow Mustard
- Coca-Cola made with Pepper and Cilantro
- Coca-Cola made with Cinnamon
Of course, I am kidding I was just testing you to see if you were still paying attention.
I wonder how the following flavors would taste...
- Cinnamon Coca-Cola
- Raspberry Coca-Cola
- Orange Coca-Cola
- Dulce de Leche Coca-Cola
- Butterscotch Coca-Cola.

Diet Coke Splenda is way sweet and Coke Zero falls in between Diet Coke w/Nutrasweet and Diet Coke w/Splenda.
To add my two cents: I try to minimize HFCS whenever possible. Not that I think overloading on regular sugar is healthy either.

I think this post might constitute Thread Heresy.

I dont know where the OP is located but Coke made in Mexico is very easy to obtain in Hispanic neighborhood groceries and many supermarkets in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and i assume many other locations. Its really good.
Hope it ok to put this in this COKE thread....but... the DR. PEPPER that's prdocued in Dublin (Texas, not Ireland) is also made with SUGAR. Little harder to find but Central Market and a few others usually have it in Dallas. (If someone already pointed this out...mea culpa...I did not read all of the posts in the thread).

HFCS is quite bad for you, but no worse than sugar. To believe otherwise is another example of this country's acceptance of faith over science.

just add some Fanta to your Coke and you know how it tastes. at least the result you'll get is very near to Mezzo Mix
by the way: as far as I remember, all european Coke is made with sugar

Not all Kosher Coke is made with Sugar
Coke made with corn syrup is a Kosher Product. However during Passover, one is not supposed to consume corn syrup, therefore Coke plants around the country, clean out there machines, have them blessed by a rabbi and make Coke with sugar. These Coke bottles usually have a yellow cap and have a KP on the top. Years ago they used to have pull-off labels but those days are gone.
Point - if you go to a Kosher Market to buy Coke make sure the cap has a KP imprinted on the top, otherwise it's just Coke.
Totally off the topic, but if you want great semi-sweet chocolate chips for dipping fruit, use Kosher for Passover chocolate morsels - again made with sugar and no corn syrup.

I wish that the American Coke bottlers would use Sugar instead of High Frictose Corn syrup but they refuse.
I wonder if any Airlines serve Coke made with Sugar and not the deadly high fructose corn syrup.

SO far E-bay has been my only source but I'd love a consistent source from Canada, where Coke is made with SUGAR!!!

Here in Australia coke is made with real cane sugar and so it is served on all QANTAS flights, even within the US. It's funny to watch americans pull faces when they order a coke on a LAX-SYD flight and it doesn't taste the same...

Coke from Holland is available in 0.2 litre six-packs -- for 12.95!! -- at this specialty soda pop and cigar store in the Bishop's Arts District section of south Dallas.
It's made with natural citric acid, sugar and real cola nut extract -- apparently just like the original, post coca, recipe was.
Good stuff!
