not forget where the drink got its start and that was a drink we doubt the inventor ever foresaw the
massive impact his drink would have on the world but one thing he did know was that it tasted great
it was a natural extension to suggest its use in the culinary world for over a hundred years
chefs the world over have had the opportunity to work with the flavor of Coca-Cola and some truly
magical Creations have come about as a result one of these delicious applications is to use
the soft drink as a marinade for any piece of meat that's going to be introduced to open flame this
is particularly popular in grilling and barbecue I'm a freaking rock star man the Coca-Cola not
only works to impart its one-of-a-kind flavor but it also tenderizes the meat to melt in your mouth

the ants and in turn the ants Devour the larvae of whatever common past has taken up residents
among the crops the Cs the Center for Science and environment actually did studies and concluded
that Trace Amounts of pesticide residue were found in Coca-Cola it's confirmed before you go running
to pull the coke out of your fridge to throw away it's yet unconfirmed whether this was the result
