I tend not to drink substances that you can dissolve nails in.

From the "not again" department.

$1:

California's listing was based on a single study in lab mice and rats. A person would need to drink more than 2,900 cans of cola every day for 70 years to reach the lowest dose levels mice received in the single study upon which California based its decision," the group said.

Don't drink the stuff myself.

What a total joke. Sounds like the typical nonsense that comes out of California. Granola-munching vegan do-gooders assembling behind another phony "public advocacy" front to attack a product that, aside from obviously being a treat and not a staple food to be consumed eight times a day, is quite harmless. Hey Bart, leave that crazy place ASAP before they capture you and sacrifice you to their god.

[Lemmy]

Mix it with rum, which counteracts any carcinogens, and you're good to go.

Actually stomach acid is a hell of a lot more powerful in comparison...it can etch glass. It would take forever to dissolve a steel nail in cola and the story is basically a myth. Didn't you use tabasco sauce to dissolve corrosion and loosen metal when you were in the navy?

I'm not staying here after I retire, that's for damn sure.

Good, because we had planned to put you out on an ice flow.

Best place to hunt polar bears! How thoughtful of you!

Lime flavoured naval jelly?

What the hell do they use that chemical shit for anyways? It's always said 'caramel coloring' on the label so the whole world expected they actually used caramel. They use so damn much sugar anyways, why not melt some and just use that?
Dumb question as they most likely don't even use cola.

....and visa versa.

It's similar to bacon and most deli type cooked meats.

The label says celery extract, sounds good but it's the nitrates they extract as a preservative.

I've been trying to dissolve myself in that stuff for 37 years, no luck yet.
