| The Many Uses of Coca-Cola : Thursday Thirteen #3 |
13. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
12. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.
11. Bake a cake : using just a normal cake mix, add only a can of soda, bake normally. It honestly turns out very tasty.
10. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coke into the toilet bowl. Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean.
9. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
8. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
7. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
5. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan; wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
4. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
3. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It's pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.
2. To carry Coca Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards reserved for Highly Corrosive materials.
1. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years! Drink up! |

For #7, Root Beer works much, much better because it fizzes and foams more than Coke. Happy TT to ya!
