    Like water. If you don't like water, eat a piece of rich, yummy chocolate. You'll get thirsty really quickly, then grab a water bottle and chug it all down. There, you just drank something healthy. Then you repeat the process until you can't take it anymore. ^_^

    (Um, I'm just bored... so forgive me for interfering with you people's soda conversation. Be healthy though!)

    We will of course, ignore the fact that the chocolate is just as unhealthy to begin with.

    How many people are going to get this wrong? Coca Cola is called Coca Cola for a reason. It didn't contain actual cocaine. It contained coca beans. To make cocaine, coca beans have to be refined.

    Coca Cola was named back in 1885 for its two "medicinal" ingredients: extract of coca leaves and kola nuts. Just how much cocaine was originally in theformulation is hard to determine, but the drink undeniably contained some cocaine in its early days. Frederick Allen describes the public attitude towards cocaine that existed as Coca-Cola's developers worked on perfecting their formula in 1891:

    Yes, but I'm sure tons of amount of water will filter out all the unhealthiness(don't listen me, I'm being stupid) but then you can always buy low-fat chocolate or fat-free. ^_^ Or just eat dark chocolate, they're healthier than milk chocolate.

    But this chocolate and water process if super fun when you're super bored. I've tried it and whoa, it made me lost weight.

    Coca-Cola did once contain an estimated nine milligrams of cocaine per glass, but in 1903 it was removed
