Why Does Coca-Cola Acid damage your teeth?
There are two damaging forces at work in carbonated soft drinks (pop). One is the sugar which can feed the bacteria (caries) in dental plaque. The other is the combination of carbonic acid and phosphoric acid, which can damage enamel. (Concentrated forms of this combination are used to etch glass!)
Fortunately, tooth enamel can be protected by regular brushing and flossing, especially before bedtime. The bacteria that cause tooth decay must compete for food with the normal bacteria in the mouth, and can be temporarily decimated by ordinary mouthwash. In the case of children, fluoride can strengthen the enamel and limit the damage by acids, either those in foods or those secreted by bacteria.
Is it true that if you pour coke on pork the pork will have maggots in about two hours?
This is an urban legend. The only way to birth maggots on your pork is to leave it outside. Coke has nothing to do with this urban legend. I have performed such experiments in controlled environments and can confirm maggots do not develop due to the introduction of Coke. What you might see is:
1. Residue from the carbonation that has coagulated the protein structure of the pork.
2. Acids that have started to cook the pork and brought out amino acids that were inside the pork.
I would have to say, this "legend" holds true when you get the cheap pork, as it has been tested with various "brands" of pork, and some worked and some didn't. My suggestion, go get yourself some expensive pork, and some cheap pork and a good bottle of coca cola and try this out for yourself. Remember to wash your hands because I don't eat pork because pigs don't sweat (sweating is a way to rid your body of toxins) No, it's not maggots. What happens is that the fats rise to the surface of the pork, which is caused by the bubbles in the coke. It's just fat. It's not alive nor is it any kind of parasite. It's just another part of the pork, hidden beneath the meat. It's not a "maggot," it's called a "trichina worm," a small slender parasitic nematode, which infests the intestines of various mammals,including the "pig"! It doesn't matter whether the pork is expensive or cheap,it only matters how you cook it.(Well,that's if you're going to eat it!) Raw or improperly cooked pork can KILL YOU!It's not good for you,and I'm counting on that after you've seen this video,pork will be the last thing to touch your plate. It's hard to know if you've been infected by these worms (having trichinosis) because almost all people with trichinosis show no symptoms - and some people have found the disease in autopsies of people who never knew that they were infected!
get some ice.. put it in the blender and blend it till its like little bits... then add the coke and blend it aliitle more.. but not too much cuz then it will make the frizz go away and it wont taste like an icee.. =] then serve ASAP
What is the pestle analysis for coca cola?
PEST Analysis for Coca - Cola: The Coca - Cola Company
The PEST Analysis identifies changes in the market caused by: Political , Economical, Social and Technological factors.
Political Analysis and Factors: Those Non- Alcoholic Beverages like; Coca-Cola, are within the food category, under the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The government has control over the manufacturing procedure of these products in terms of regulations.Companies who fail to meet the standards of law, are fined by the government. Following are provided some of the factors that are influencing Coca-Cola's Operations.
1.Changes in Laws and Regulations like; changes in Accounting Standards, taxation requirements (tax rate changes, modified tax law interpretations, entrance of new tax laws), and environmental laws either in domestic or foreign authorities.
2.Changes in Non-Alcoholic business era. These are; competitive product and pricing policy pressures, ability to maintain or earn share of sales in worldwide market compared to rivals.
3. Political Conditions, specifically in international markets, like; civil conflict, governmental changes and restrictions concerning the ability to relocate capital across borders.
4. Ability to penetrate emerging and developing markets, that also relies on economic and political conditions, and also their ability to form effectively strategic business alliances with local bottlers, and to enhance their production amenities, distribution networks, sales equipment, and technology.
Economic: In 2001, the recession influenced the companies operations, but because of aggressive actions the US Economy estimated to have returned in positive growth in 2002. Currently, because of global recession, Coca-Cola can borrow capital and invest in other products, because the interest rates are lowered. Also, it can borrow to advance its research of new products and technology. By researching for new products is cost effective, the company could sell its products at a lower price, so its cutomers would purchase more Coca-Cola products at a lower price.
Social: The majority of US citizens are excersizing healthier lifestyles. That has strongly influenced the sales of non-alcoholic beverage sector, because many customers are switching to bottled water and diet colas like; Coca-Cola Light or Zero, instead of drinking beer or other beverages. Additionally, time management is quite 43 % of all households, and it has increased. Customers aged from 37 to 55, are concerned with their nutrition. Also, large portion of the population is within the range of baby boomers age. While many cutomers are getting at older ages in life, they are more concerned in long term increasing their permanence. That will continue to affect the non-alcoholic beverage sector, by increasing the demand, in healthier and other beverages.
Technological: Some factors that affect the company's actual results to vary essentially from the expected results, are the following:
1.The efficiency of company's advertising, marketing and promotional programs, The new technology advances of television and internet that use incomparable effects for advertising through the use of media. Those advances make the products seem attractive. This supports the selling promotion of the products. Coca-Cola in media tends to use this technology so, to sell effectively its products.
2. Entrance of cans and plastic bottles in the past, have increased sales volume for the company because they are easier to carry and customers can bin them once they have been used.
3.Since the technology is advancing continuously there has been entrance of new machineries' equipment all the time. Because of that, Coca-Cola's production volume has increased sharply compared to few years ago.
4. CCE-Coca-Cola Enterprises have six factories in Britain by using modern technology equipment so to ensure top product quality and quick delivery. In Wakefield,Yorkshire in 1990, CCE opened one of the Europe's largest soft drinks factory. That factory has the ability to produce faster the cans of Coca-Cola even faster than bullets of a machine gun.
Does coke have alkahole in it?
No if it did you would not see people walking around drinking it all the time
Soft drinks are also known as carbonated drinks. Have you thought why? Soft drinks contain chuge quantities of carbon dioxide under high pressure. The high pressure causes the gas to remain in dissolved state. Hence, when you open the bottle, the pressure falls, and the dissolved carbon dioxide can no longer remain dissolved, and hence escapes off, as fizzing.
What are all the bad things Coca Cola can do to you?
soda such as coca cola can cause loss of bone mass and softening of the teeth.
Another harmful ingredient in soda is carbon acids. Carbon acids can increase the acidity of blood. When your body chemistry becomes acidic, it can open the door to other diseases. Both cancer and arthritis are more prone to develop in acidic conditions.
not to mention that coca cola use to contain "Cocaine" hench the name "Coca" cola.
But it's OK because the cocaine was taken out in 1908.
What are the ingredients used to make cocaine?
The only true ingredient is the resin from the coca plant. Anything else is added to make the cocaine white or to look like a larger quantity. Cocaine in its natural state is brown.
Mostly because people preferred to buy their cold coffee drinks from Starbucks (which was marketed in supermarkets by Pepsi) or they didn't like the taste (Coca-Cola and coffee? No thanks). It was pulled from North American shelves in 2007, but (strangely) continues to sell extremely well in France.
What was life like before Coca-Cola?
Before Coke, homes were simple wooden huts. They had wooden frames filled in with wattle and daub (strips of wood woven together and covered in a 'plaster' of animal hair and clay). However in some parts of the country huts were made of stone. Peasants huts were either whitewashed or painted in bright colours.
The poorest people lived in one-room huts. Slightly better off peasants lived in huts with one or two rooms. There were no panes of glass in the windows only wooden shutters, which were closed at night. The floors were of hard earth sometimes covered in straw for warmth.
In the middle of a peasant's hut was a fire used for cooking and heating. There was no chimney. Instead smoke escaped through a hole in the thatched roof. Any furniture was very basic. Chairs were very expensive and no peasant could afford one. Instead they sat on benches or stools. They would have a simple wooden table and chests for storing clothes and other valuables. Tools and pottery vessels were hung on hooks. The peasants slept on straw and they did not have pillows. Instead they rested their heads on wooden logs.
The peasant's wife cooked on a cauldron suspended over the fire and the family ate from wooden bowls. Candles were expensive so peasants usually used rush lights (rushes dipped in animal fat).
At night in summer and all day in winter the peasants shared their huts with their animals. Parts of it were screened off for the livestock. Their body heat helped to keep the hut warm.

What parts of your body does coca cola coke damage?
The Original Coca-Cola
Coca-Cola got its name from two specific ingredients, the caffeine-containing cola nut and the coca leaf that it is enhanced with.
For years there were speculations as to whether or not Coca-Cola actually contained any cocaine in it. And yes, initially Coca-Cola had actual doses of cocaine as a by-product of the coca leaf, but by the early 1900's, this was banned.
Today apparently, Coca-Cola uses instead of fresh leaves, "spent" leaves of coca - the leftovers of the cocaine-extraction process with cocaine trace levels left over at a molecular level. The company proclaims that it is thus using cocaine-free coca leaves.
The kola (cola) nuts are both a source of flavor and caffeine for the drink. Apart from cola nuts, the special taste of Coca Cola has contributions from vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, and lemons, though the exact formula is kept strictly secret.
Hence here are the ingredients that are made public:
- Carbonated water
- Sugar (high fructose corn syrup)
- Phosphoric acid
- Caramel color
- Natural flavors
- Caffeine
In the past Coca-Cola contained sodium benzoate, a chemical that has been linked to asthma like effects, hyperactivity, as well as it can damage DNA and holds the potential to become carcinogenic. Coca-Cola is still phasing this chemical out in some parts of the world. For more information on this see the article "Coca-Cola to phase out controversial chemical" from Mail Online.
Due to the fact that the exact formulation of Coca-Cola is such a secret, the company only produces the "secret syrup". This is then sold to franchise partners that make it into the famous drink by mixing it with the water and sugar and then carbonating it.
The classic coca-cola is said to have 160 calories per 355mL can (based on Canadian product), 42g of carbohydrates in the form of sugars and 40mg of sodium, as well as about 34 mg of caffeine.

To add to all this, never mind the quality of water they are using, the fact that in some countries the products are contaminated with cancer-causing pesticides, the aluminum cans or plastic bottles the product comes in or the fact that it stimulates thirst on a biological level and does nothing to quench it.
It is sweet, fizzy, and caffeinated. Different brands of cola have different amounts of each quality. Coke tastes less sweet, but has more caffeine, than Pepsi.
Did the original Coca-Cola have cocaine in it?
YES!!! Cocaine WAS an ingredient in the original Coca-Cola when it was first introduced to the public. (This was many, many years ago) Cocaine was present in minute, trace amounts. However, it was enough for people to become "addicted" to Coca-Cola. Cocaine was soon removed as an ingredient.
Dr. John S. Pemberton invented Coca- Cola in Atlanta, Georgia, 1886. Frank Robinson, his bookkeeper, came up with the name "Coca Cola" and created the now famous logo in his own handwriting.
