India : Coke and Pepsi
INDIA’S highest court yesterday demanded that Coca-Cola should reveal its secret formula for the first time in 120 years.
The Supreme Court ordered the US soft drinks maker, along with its rival PepsiCo, to supply details of the chemical composition and ingredients of their products after a study released this week claimed that they contained unacceptable levels of insecticides. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...299363,00.html

Ok, that is stupid, because other companys will just copy it, and Coca cola will be left with nothing...
There is nothing lik€e a good can of coca cola! ![]() The thing about it containing "unacceptable levels of insecticides" is stupid. People have been drinking it for 120 years, and all is cool! |

There are subtle differences, do a taste test. Some can't stand anything else but one or the other after 20 years of drinking it.
In any case, incesticides? I've been drinking soda since I got into high school, for 4 years, and even if there were any in it, they couldn't have been harmful.

There is actully quite a difference.
It certainly tastes a LOT different. As I said, I only accept quality when it comes to Coke. |

No guys, not again... So far we had we had PC vs Apple, Intel vs AMD, nVidia vs ATI, Republicans vs Democrats, Acer vs Dell, European sports cars vs American muscle cars [... can't recite all of them - they're countless ...]; endless debates - please DON'T get now in the Coke vs Pepsi thing, I'm seriously gonna kill myself... (by drinking too many Coke, perhaps?)

Ok what in the &^@#*&% *^!@%&
I have been drinking Coke and soda since I was like 4 or 5. That is a decade plus one or two; if there was high levels of insecticides I'd be dead by now. If there really is insecticides in it....... I think I will never drink another soda again and oh how I will miss them.........

it could be that the insecticide thing is limited to india only?? becuase my grandad is like 75+ and he was the first person i heard this off..back whe ni was 7...thats why i'm replying here..but..yeah i reckon if an old dude like that knows about it..then there must be some truth..and about ppl dying or it being reported..well we have the 2nd biggest population after china..so such things can easily get lost among the poor or between corrupt politicians..

They all use different recipes because Coke tastes MUCH better than Pepsi.
I sure as heck hope they show the recipe, I'm getting kinda nervous here.
