Is this going to draw as many outraged protests from offended muslims as mecca bingo halls?

Is caffeine as much a sin as gambling? or is that mormons? I'm getting my organised religions mixed up again...

(hehe Kate yes Mormons are as much a sin as gambling! [/pete])

i bet mecca-cola will taste like Rola Cola.

katie (katie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:33 (twenty-two years ago)

How many fauxca-colas can you name, and which is the best?

Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:35 (twenty-two years ago)

mmm Whole Earth organic cola is lovely. a-a-and it's NOT bad for you, cos it's ORGANIC!

katie (katie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:36 (twenty-two years ago)

I knew this was an Ed thread.

Virgin Cola with its bottle shaped like Pamela Anderson.

Didn't the Coke secret get leaked in the mid 90s, prompting Virgin Cola and all those other ones that don't actually taste like Panda Pops at all?

N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Katie's got to be right. Eight litres for 40p. Get it drunk.

It amused me because I find it incredible that sugar water can be such a strong cultural symbol.

Ed (dali), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:41 (twenty-two years ago)

well Ed it did start life as CRACK in drink form!

katie (katie), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Virgin Cola so does taste like Panda Pops/Rola Cola. You were just fooled by its daft bottle.

Supermarket Value Cola = Ricin.

Tom (Groke), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 13:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Price Chopper Cola! Tasted like... well, nothing else on earth, really.

RC cola, Jolt, Stewarts... I'm not doing very well at this, I'm so brand inoculated.

INCA COLA which tastes like irn bru

Sainsbury's Classic COla rools this thread. Plus Scintilla Cola at Sam SMiths which I think tastes like Coke squared.

Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 8 January 2003 14:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Of course Scintilla Cola is grebt - it's made with Yorkshire water.
