More likely they’re having supply issues and had to “reformulate” to keep things going and cheap.

“because of the pandemic”
Not buying it. People binge bought sugary comfort foods to hunker down with.

Club soda for me (and I’m been a teetotaler all my life), sometimes I go hoity-toity and get LaCroix. Let everyone else have the orthophosphoric acud.

My doctor, whom I respect greatly - has several “enemies” he tells all patients about

“health-supplement” pyramid sales schemes
Big pharma marketing
COCA COLA

Phosphoric acid leaches calcium from bones and teeth. contributes to poor teeth, long-term poor bone density, arthritis and kidney/gall stones. High Fructose/Sugar are completely empty calories, contribute to US obesity epidemic.

He says Coca Cola needs to go “woke” to protect its ass from government-supported class-action lawsuits like occurred to “big tabacco.” Thus Coca Cola Inc. have become a political actor also.

Not a Coke fan. Never have been, never will be. Even in days long beofre wokeism, I found it to be too thick and sweet. Always been a Pepsi guy - been a loyal Pepso Zero fan for a long time.

You gotta go to Japan to get Georgia brand coffee, unless they sell it in oriental specialty stores.

When it comes to Japanese canned coffee, my favorite is the unwoke-ily named Suntory Black Boss.

It seems like I’m seeing Pepsi products in restaurants much more than before the whole woke coke thing started.

Fanta Orange Soda has it’s own interesting history.
Most don’t seem to know or care about it, and to be honest, the flavor is not bad for a fizzy soda.
Fanta was created by Nazi Germany by the German Coca Cola bottling company. About 1944. Because of the war, there was no shipping between Nazi Germany and the United States.
Beet sugar was used to substitute for Corn sugar. Apples and whey by product substituted for oranges and more common additives.

Phosphoric acid leaches calcium from bones and teeth


Not always. Calcium balance studies (measuring calcium intake and calcium going out) didn’t find calcium loss caused by drinking Coca Cola.

When you consume phosphoric acid, the kidneys produce ammonia, which reacts with phosphoric acid. Once phosphoric acid reacts with ammonia, it doesn’t react with calcium.

The total amount of calcium phosphoric acid can react with is limited by the total amount of phosphoric acid. If it’s something that can be easily replaced by consuming milk or cheese, it probably won’t be a problem for people who eat these foods.
