Default A woman dies from coke!

Probably not a hot news item, except this coke induced death isn't from an illegal drug, its from Coca-Cola!! She drank 2 gallons of coke a day!!

I'm not sure how her stomach could handle that everyday!

Exactly. Anything can kill a person if they consume enough of it.

The New Zealand press is all about lies! All they tell is lies, lies and more lies! There is no danger from large amounts of Coca-Cola. None!

I quit drinking CC when I quit drinking whiskey.
Now I only drink distilled water. Preferably distilled in Scotland.

Meh, I don't feel any sympathy. Live by the Coke, die by the Coke.

This news is no news & no news is good news

They failed to mention the pound of Cocaine she was putting in her drink.
She wanted the original formula Coke.

I'm taking a two litre bottle with me to work this afternoon but it is a 24 1/2 hour shift and I will return home with approx a third of the bottle contents intact.
