Off topic slightly: Scotland, apparently, is the only country in the world where Coke is not the highest selling drink.

Don't know - they are both majorly disgusting.... ugh. Try drinking either at room temperature, once it's gone flat. Oh jesus, makes me want to throw up just thinking about it. Did you not do that thing at school where you put a tooth in a glass of coke and within a few days it's completely dissolved? (You can do it with a coin, too, takes longer). Scarey stuff.

Pepsi? Popular? In the Netherlands?? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...s/biglaugh.gif
Most smaller supermarkets don't even have Pepsi around here, but they always have Coca Cola; figures... http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

What's the day old bit got to do with anything?

I'm not talking about day old. Normal milk you can drink warm and it tastes ok. Coke and pepsi you can't because they're foul a couple of hours after you take them out of the fridge. Geddit? (Maybe cos they're chockfull of crap? Warm chemicals. Ooh, yummmmmmmmmy......)

Coke is most popular here in UK. I love the taste of those bone-dissolving lukewarm chemicals http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gifhttp://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

As for energy drinks, my fabourite is Bomba - the bottles are shaped like grenades and the energy lasts for half a day!!!! Not half an hour like red Bull

Sorry peeps, I just think you're all stark staring bonkers! (My brother used to work in a coca cola factory. He said the stink was unbelievable. Before working there - enthusiastic coke drinker. After - he never touched it again.) But each to his/her own, I guess http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I don't know what is more popular in the Netherlands in general but I prefer good ol coke http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif Less sweet and artificial and just more original (god I sound like I'm advertising for it...) http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

You think the smell in a coke factory is bad? Try a dairy barn http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

What kind of coca cola factory did he work in, a bottling plant...?

We have both Coke and Pepsi here. Pepsi seems to clear off of the shelves first it seems, so I guess that must be the most popular one. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

<font color=orange>Coke covers everything in Tennessee. I tend to drink de-caf diet coke myself. Warm Milk... YUCK!!! If it ain't cold, I don't drink it!!! Moridin, I agree with you about dairy barns. If most people had to work in one, I'm not sure they'd drink milk either! Of course PETA would like us all to quit drinking milk and start drink soy mush!</font>

LMAO! I know what you mean there mate.... I used to live in London and there the kids on the streets had fire hydrant eating contests. Not pleasant. I went to Edinburgh last month, nice place but so full of bloody bagpipes! Not sure which I hate more: bagpipes or riverdancing.... http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif
