Fall Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 Is it true that Coke's (Coco-Cola) recipe is the most guarded recipe in the world? :confused: Because in my Science class a few weeks ago, we were doing an experiment that involved adding coke. Then our science teacher started talking about it, and it turned out that he was talking about its recipe. He said "Coke's recipe is the best kept secret in the world". Now I just wanted to know if this is true or not? Because even my mum and dad say it is. :confused: ::mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liamc2 Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 gah well when coke first started out (so i am told) before using caffeine, they used coke(the drug), that how it got its name, how original:p. Anyhow the coke in the tonic got people addicted so they would buy more and more, then the manufacturers replaced it with caffeine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SephirothNIN Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 Nah I doubt it's a very well kept secret, any mcdonalds worker can probably figure it out. Besides the government requires them to list all their ingredients, just need to know how much ::shrugs:: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Akito Posted December 29, 2001 Share Posted December 29, 2001 Please, don't u ppl know that almost all food companies don't tell the whole story when it comes to making stuff? Like one time, I took a bite into a bar of chocolate, that was supposed to be just chocolate, and I bit into a nut! I hate nuts in my chocolate! But the bad part is, for some ppl, just touching a nut, or whatever their allergic to makes them break out! My lil bro breaks out just touching nuts! It was really freaky when it first happened this year, which was the first time he actually ever touched a walnut to eat it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it didn't have anything about "May Contain traces of nut or egg", and when they mean trace, they mean bits and peices, not a whole nut! actually, there were three nuts in it... And yeah gohan, thats pretty bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deedlit Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 I would prefer sprite, but I like coke. If you want their recipe, just look at the side of the wrapper that says "ingredients." It won't say how much of one thing to put in, but it's close enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] That's the ingredients, the stuff that's in it. But with some things, if you don't mix them a certain way, they don't turn out right. So I suppose that if you just put in that stuff on it wrapper (ingredients), even if it was the right ammount, it could still turn out completely different because of the way you mixed it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno if it was from the coke, but it happened about 5 days after..... :rolleyes: :wigout: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
