This holidays for you, Jas.....

On this day in 1886 - Atlanta pharmacist John Styth Pemberton invented the flavored syrup for Coca-Cola.
What would life be without ice-cold Coca-Cola (in glass, of course!)

Funny thing about Coca Cola. It used to only be glass bottles and was just the best thing to enjoy since candy was invented. That's what it was, liquid candy!

But then everything went to plastic to save money, and now... well, unless it's bottled in glass, it's just another soft drink!

They need to go back to glass. Seriously. They may lose a little money in the short run, but I'll bet with that strategy, they'll start to become number one again!

We are lucky enough here in Hooterville to have an old fashioned soda fountain where they still mix it by hand... not to mention all the great old soda fountian things like vanilla ices, and vanilla fosfates (or cherry) and any drink combination you can think of...LOL

We can get it here now in those little glass bottles like they used to have in the Coke machines. 6 or 8 oz I believe. They are the best. I drank Coke in Europe. It is a different animal for sure. Less sticky sweet, you can even drink it hot, unlike the Coke here. It was good even hot.
