    Just wondering about you blokes. You seem to be getting fairly excited and when you start using phrases such as
    " up your nose " in the same sentence as " coke" well .......... Just wondering that's all.

    Yes, that is a worry isn't it.

    Interestingly, the original Coca-Cola (c. 1890) actually did contain cocaine, but this was removed from the recipe in the early 1900s.

    It's amazing how many people don't believe that and think it's a myth. It contained quite a substantial amount of cocaine. It was originally an elixir made to cure the morphine addiction of its creator.

    It got its name from the Coca plant (cocaine) and the Kola plant (Caffiene) which were the two main ingredients of Coca Cola. The K in Kola was changed to a C for marketing purposes. The Coca plant is still used today to make the syrup but has gone through a process to remove the cocaine prior to being used for flavoring the syrup.
