What are the contents there in the US? Does it contain aspartame?

[phileysmiley]

Only in the sugar-free versions (Diet Coke and Coke Zero).

[mnemonicj]

No aspertame.

Carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, phosphoric acid, natural flavors, caffeine. (directly off the can)

There was a news item here last night that Red Bull cola has been withdrawn from sale because it has a percentage of cocaine in it.

That's some German hysteria right there.

the 0.13 micrograms of cocaine per can of the drink does not pose a serious health threat — you'd have to drink 12,000 L of Red Bull Cola for negative effects to be felt — but it was enough to cause concern.

Someone leaked the secret recipe of Coca-Cola to the internet some years ago, so that if you search for it you should be able to locate it somewhere.

I saw that mentioned at various news sources over here as well. Funny thing is, almost every single dollar bill in the US has traces of cocaine on it. I'm sure that simply handling paper money allows at least as much cocaine to get on people's hands and into their systems as in Red Bull.

That said, I know some neighborhood teens who definitely go through 12,000 L of the stuff

You drink that much RB and you won't sleep until 2015. I would think coke would be the least of your worries

I'd think you'd die of sugar shock before you had to worry about caffeine, though the combination would be terrible if you were drinking that much. Imagine if you did survive how hard you'd crash after all that caffeine and sugar, and apparently some coke mixed in.
