its true. Its all over the internet and in major newspapers that a Chicago radio station aired one of the most closely guarded trade secrets- Coca-Cola's secret Merchandise 7X. Link. This is from the Globe and Mail.

Pepsi sucks

Coke does not suck

Damn Wikileaks. lol

Ooh that's sort of interesting in a 'the world has changed yet it doesn't affect me' kinda way.

No secret can be kept forever :(

The leaked recipe is the original one, not the one they currently use.

Coke is too strong; that stingy taste that's typical of sodas is overwhelming with Coke. On the other hand, Pepsi is too sweet. Dr. Pepper is the just the right balance between the stingy taste and sweetness.

What's that gonna do anyway? Isn't the recipe protected by copyright law?Got_to_go

That would prevent people from using it to manufacture Coke and sell it on the market. However, it doesn't stop people from making it in their homes or selling it illegally. Essentially, it could still affect Coca Cola's sales and revenues, since it could deter people from buying it.

If I liked Coke and had the resources to manufacturer it at home, I'd make it myself instead of buying it.

They do still actually use a decocainaised coca extract, which I don't see listed.

I said Dr. Pepper is better, not that it was the best. Root Beer being better than Dr. Pepper has no affect on Dr. Pepper being better than Coke and Pepsi.

I can't believe nobody's reverse engineered or tested it yet, or even noticed the likely millions of tons of ingredients that Coca Cola buys and transports to its factories.F1_2004

They probably buy decoy ingredients in addition to the real ingredients. Or, they probably buy the ingredients indirectly using some sort of secretive proceess that doesn't allow them to be identified. Or, they probably manufuctur the ingredients themselves.

That soda is awful, as most are what's the big deal?X360PS3AMD05

Millions of people and billions of dollars say otherwise. That's the big deal.

.... I didn't even know it was a secret....

I mean scientists can tell what the gas make up of a planet is over a million light years away just by judging the way that light refracts of its surface ... But no one can figure out how they make coke until someone leaks it...

I dont understand.

Um, that's not a recipe... that's a list of ingredients.

Without the instructions for the timing, method, and order you should introduce the ingredients into the mixture, it's completely useless.

Fake,

Coke contains phosphoric acid.
