It is a shame that they removed the sugar when switching back. Sugar-based sodas are arguably healthier for you (sugar being more natural and easier to digest than HFCS) and as said above, they taste much better.

As far as addiction goes, most likely the only addicting substance contained in coca cola is the caffeine.

But if you ever want to clean rust off your bike, coke can certainly help you with that. Seriously.

Also, cane sugar isn't addictive like HFCS. It shuts down the nerve receptors that tell you when you're full, so in essence, you never stop being hungry. Kind of like doing coke.

There was one major difference - when they returned to "Classic Coke," they switched from cane sugar to corn syrup - so it wasn't really a return to the original recipe at all. (Cane sugar sodas are much sweeter)

I had a friend who's addicted to coke(coca cola), possibly from personal issues. I wonder if his younger sister getting pregnant had any part to do with it or the fact that he settled with a career as a McDonald's manager. Anyway, this guys teeth was damd yellow and at the time, looked as though they were wearing away.. by now his teeth are probably as soft as sponge, that or he's dead. Three sides of his room (basement) were stacked with empty 24 or 12 can boxes that he drank all by himself. May he find peace.

There was a very little percentage of cocaine in the drink. The taste is the same.

If you go to the mexican food section of your grocery store, you can still get bottled Coke made with sugar cane instead of HFCS. It tastes like you remember it when you were a kid.

I've always wondered what original coke tasted like, before they took out the cocaine.

Happy to say that as a Scot I do happen to be from one if the few if not the only country that's own home grown fizzy crap out sells Coke's fizzy crap.
