Coca-Cola also contained cocaine to a point. A lot of the early sodas were developed and sold by pharmacies as tonics. Healing, medicinal, feel good, and so on

A far cry from today's pure sugar rush and crash.

Almost all have been replaced with the "artificial" sweetener version. Most places often don't even have original coke, only stocking coke zero or diet.
- ragingrobot 4y agoA few years back, Coca-Cola released "Coke Life," in a green can. Very short lived, but instead of HFCS, it used a blend of cane sugar and stevia. IMO it kicked HFCS Coke's ass. It tasted better, it didn't have that sticky feeling of "normal" Coke and fewer calories because of the blend.
