It is. I should have clarified that I meant May 08, not the year. According to the all-knowing Wikipedia, Coca-Cola was first sold in 1886 in Atlanta as a medicine.

So I'm watching RedLetterMedia's AotC review again, and just noticed that in part 5 where he is keeping tally of Anakin's romantic pluses and minuses, the background music is an instrumental version of "Strangers in the Night..." :lol:

They say you should drink lots of water. What they don't tell you is that it makes you piss like a race horse, constantly.

Is it just me, or does Pepsi Max taste better than regular Pepsi? I've even started preffering it to normal Coca-Cola.

Not for me, I despise the taste of the artificial sweetener used.

These days, everything is artificial sweetener. Even the sugar isn't real! :mrgreen:

The supermarket has "Pepsi Throwback", with real sugar again for a limited time. God, I miss those days.

Here in Tucson Costco gets Coca Cola from Mexico, real cane sugar in it, not sweetener. The regular Coca Cola has an acidic aftertaste that Mexican Stuff doesn't have.

Can't say much anymore for sugar vs. corn syrup vs. sweeteners; but I can tell you that using real cane juice makes a world of difference in a mojito.

Ah, mojito. The only time I actually like mint.
