It's a popular myth that Coca-Cola caused Santa to be red in almost all media thanks to their advertisements, a myth that I personally believed for a while until snopes set me right.

My knowledge of the history was that Coke was originally a drink to cure headaches, or at least that was how it came about, but it surely evolved from there. The amount of cocaine inside it was extremely marginal.

Finally, I am thinking of cutting down some more. I already cut down from 3 to 2 glasses a day (erm... except today). Maybe I could just quit cold turkey. The problem is finding something to replace it.

Coca Cola did invent the fat jolly Santa as a marketing gimic, true story.
No it ain't. :ph34r:

Sorry to burst your bubble there...

Thanks for the URL, though.

i've only been drinking tapwater and milk at home since like 5 years or something. not that i need to lose weight or anything, i'm a skinny fuck :/ but at least they're cheap(er than sugary liquids made out of plastic).

I don´t drink much coke although i like it and their´s always plenty. I think I just got used to drinking water instead of anything else I don´t even think about something else anymore when I´m thirsty.
 
Agreed, listen to the Dolphins, water is all you need.

That really is the best replacement. At first it seems boring if you don't drink it much, but keep having water regulary and it will be the most refreshing drink you can have.

Not to mention the obvious health benefits. ...Still, I'm not one to talk. ;)
