wow I haven't seen this brand in 20 years something is happening
coca cola and affiliated drinks are somewhat synonymous with israel around here. idiots would buy cola and film themselves pouring the drink down the toilet to protest when I was younger...no idea if it's still a trend, but I do remember some people stabbing oranges - the fruit, if it wasn't obvious already - to protest the netherlands a few years back. anything's possible
#it seems to be owned by dydo which is a japanese majority company afaik. pretty sure it was a local company's trademark before#and the company seems to have been bought out by dydo#some genius must've been up there thinking wow the turks are boycotting the drink market is fluctuating this is our chance#fascinating.#anyway dumb blogposting from irl#i was just at the supermarket#the cultural significance of coca cola in turkey cannot be overstated. entire construction sites would grind to a halt without coke#or so it goes#the 2L bottle of coca cola and white bread really is a construction worker staple

I’m not sure if this is permitted in other countries, but here in the US, advertisers are allowed to use any kind of malignant psychology they want in their ads so long as those ads fit within the allotted time-frame.
Back in high school, my class watched a video on how a certain Coca-Cola advertisement was made. You may have seen it, but for those who haven’t: The ad featured a cinematic montage of a crowded beach with smiling thin white people enjoying their leisure time and drinking Coca-Cola out of a common plastic bottle.
The big takeaway from this video was that the ad wasn’t actually advertising Coca-Cola. It was advertising a lifestyle. By associating Coca-Cola with a desirable lifestyle (as well as qualities associated with desirability) it plants the association of “Coca-Cola” with “happiness” in people’s subconscious minds.
This becomes clear when you consider who the ad was meant for. The target audience wasn’t the smiling thin white people that the ad featured, but instead it was people who wanted to be smiling thin white people. This was an ad for the Gen X mom of three kids who worked full-time, who relied on shelf-stable foods to keep everyone fed, and whose nervous system was chronically fried from the stress of never having adequate time for herself.
If she was at the grocery store, and saw the very same bottle of Coca-Cola featured in that ad, she’d be far more likely to pick it up than she was before watching it. If she didn’t anticipate finding relief for her stress, then she could at least drink up the idea of it.
Of course, the thing about ads is that they stop working. Eventually, people’s minds grow wise to the fact buying a certain product doesn’t actually grant them the lifestyle associated with them.
But there’s a lot of other tricks ads employ beyond this.
The reason why Geico is the first company you consider when thinking about buying car insurance is because of the calm, consistent nature of their ads and the fact they’re ubiquitous enough to be familiar. Their mascot forms a kind of parasocial rapport with the audience, so Geico already feels familiar to you by the time you’re looking to buy insurance.
Cereal brands use cartoon-character-like mascots to make their product memorable to kids who can’t read. The reason why so many cereal mascots exhibit such frenetic, possessive behavior is to teach kids to emulate that behavior to compel parents into buying them the cereal, especially if they saw that behavior rewarded in the ad (with the cereal).
You only really see ads for apps on an app-based devices for a reason.
Then there are the ads that don’t look like ads, but look like people on TikTok sharing a new secret product with their audience using the only communication format we regularly trust: word-of-mouth.
And let’s not forget the sheer magnitude of ads that exist. I can’t go outside without seeing them. I can’t watch videos online without exposing myself to ads that wants to skewer my emotions within 10 seconds.
There’s no reprieve from it unless I wall myself off from our culture entirely.
Ads are parasites to both culture and to cognition, and they must be regulated.

putting the ingredients on the side of the coke bottle is such a flex... it's like the coca cola company's saying "go ahead and mix up some carbonated water and food acid 338... still not gonna beat our product". and the thing is i can't even be mad

i think one of the best metaphors for america's relationship with fascism is fucking coca-cola
people love to talk about how the Soviets banned Coca-Cola as "American imperialism", but Zhukov cut a deal with the company to make a colourless, de-branded Coke for him to import because he loved the drink so much. rah rah American quality product overcomes Communist repression etc etc.
however, a decade earlier, the Nazis had also banned Coca-Cola, calling it a "Jewish beverage", and only changed their mind because Coke agreed to put a swastika on their bottles. (and of course Coca-Cola's German branch would continue operating even after the US embargoed Germany due to the war, leading directly to the creation of Fanta, and indirectly to the company's most ill-advised advertisement in its history)
Despite these being essentially the same sort of interaction (government bars product for ideological reasons, product adjusts branding to comply with government ideology, product sales resume), one of them gets a lot more play than the other

♡With My Bartender - Seungmin
(this is a membership exclusive + a preview👀 you can read the whole depraved story here)
pairing: bartender! Seungmin x fem! reader
summary - Being stood up sucks but it isn't so bad when the cute bartender keeps you company. But what happens when your boyfriend does show up but with another girl? Looks like the bartender needs to teach this guy a lesson he'll never forget.
warnings: mentions of alcohol, cheating, physical fights, rough sex, public sex, praising, breeding kink, creampies
“What can I get ya?” The bartender's eyes met yours only for a second. A deep brown that seemed to pull you in and hold you close before he pulled his gaze away to the person behind you. You waited for his attention to move to you again before leaning over the bar to say, “rum and coke, please.”
The bartender smirked at your order but said nothing. His strong hands slid across the finished wood of the counter and grabbed a small glass. Then he turned to grab a large bottle of rum. He poured a generous amount of the Amber liquid before filling the glass the rest of the way with Coca-Cola. He slid the glass towards you and landed it perfectly in your waiting hand. He was a seasoned pro and he knew it.
“That will be $5.50, miss.” He said, cleaning a glass as he watched you reach for your wallet. You handed him a $10 bill and told him to keep the change. He nodded appreciatively at the tip and watched you slowly drink from your glass. “So, what brings you out tonight?” He leaned in, his focus now solely on you.
You mindlessly swirl the small straw around your drink before answering. “I'm meeting my boyfriend…” your voice trails off for a moment, “if he even still is my boyfriend anymore.”
The bartender’s expression turns sympathetic as he watches you. “I see. Sometimes relationships can be a bit... complicated.” He leans against the bar, his arms crossed as he looks at you with concern in his eyes. “Is everything okay between you two?”
You nod your head solemnly, a part of you still trying to stay positive. “Yes, we're fine. He's just been distant. And I got all dressed up for him, too.” Your hand motions down to your little black dress. The fabric almost seems to pour over your body perfectly.
His eyes briefly flicker over your dress, taking in the way the fabric accentuates your curves. He clears his throat and looks away, a faint blush coloring his cheeks. “You look absolutely stunning, I must say. That dress is…” He pauses, searching for the right word. He chuckles nervously, his blush deepening. “Quite...revealing. Your boyfriend would be a fool to not appreciate the effort you've put in tonight.” He looks back up at you, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he smiles. “I'm Seungmin, by the way.”
You shake his hand and introduce yourself before taking another long sip of your drink. Seungmin watches as you drink, his gaze fixated on your lips wrapped around the straw. He quickly looks away when you lower your glass, clearing his throat. “So, what does he do for a living? Your boyfriend, I mean.” He asks, trying to steer the conversation back to safer waters.

Bottlegate and Cola Wars, I Can't Take it Anymore!
A few weeks ago, I wrote a blogpost about the Viceroy rule in NASCAR, and one thing I cut from it was a brief discussion of the Cola Wars in NASCAR. This week, I'm tackling that issue, along with its sports drink offshoot: the bottle wars between Gatorade and Powerade.
So, to review from the Viceroy blog, while NASCAR banned sponsors that clashed with series sponsors, it did not ban competing sponsorships among different teams - in fact, it encouraged it. Thus, Pepsico got involved with Hendrick Motorsports quite famously, initially with a number of Jeff Gordon Pepsi cars, and more recently with Mountain Dew cars from the likes of Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Chase Elliott.
That came to an end after 2020, and come 2023, Chase Elliott would be scooped up by the competition: the Coca-Cola Family of Drivers.
Peaking in the late 90s/early 2000s, the Coke family once consisted of (circa 2003/2004) Steve Park, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Michael Waltrip, Bobby Labonte, Tony Stewart, Bill Elliott, Ricky Rudd, John Andretti, Kyle Petty, Kevin Harvick, Dale Jarrett, Elliott Sadler, Greg Biffle, Kurt Busch, and Jeff Burton.
That's the entire three-car lineup of Dale Earnhardt Inc., both JGR cars, both Petty Enterprises cars, both Yates cars, the Wood Brothers car, Kevin Harvick who succeeded the late Dale Earnhardt at RCR, and 60% of the Roush Racing lineup.
Coke wasn't fucking around.
Unfortunately, Pepsi had Jeff Gordon.
Well, they also sponsored Jeremy Mayfield with Mountain Dew at this time, plus Pepsi/Gatorade had deals with Jeff's Hendrick Motorsports teammates (most prominently Jimmie Johnsons) as well as the other two Roush drivers in the form of Matt Kenseth and Mark Martin, plus Ryan Newman of Penske, but Jeff Gordon is the most relevant one for the first part of this story.
That's because the Cola Wars in NASCAR came to a head at Daytona International Speedway on July 3rd, 2004 for the Pepsi 400.
Coca-Cola was promoting their new Coca-Cola C2 (essentially a soda halfway between Coke and Diet Coke by the sounds of it) brand, and they sponsored an armada of cars in this race:
John Andretti in the DEI #1 Chevy,
Greg Biffle (who won the 2003 Pepsi 400) in the Roush National Guard #16 Ford.
Tony Stewart in the Joe Gibbs Racing Home Depot #20 Chevy.
Ricky Rudd in the Wood Brothers #21 Ford.
Kevin Harvick in the RCR GM Goodwrench #29 Chevy.
Kurt Busch in the Roush Sharpie #97 Ford.
Bill Elliott in his self-owned #98 Dodge.
and Jeff Burton in the Roush #99 Ford.
Coke had eight bullets in the gun to steal the thunder right out from Pepsi's flagship race - in what Pepsico pointed out was a blatant marketing stunt - however, like I said...Pepsi had Jeff Gordon.
John Andretti would crash out, Greg Biffle would end up a lap down, Jeff Burton in twenty-sixth, Bill Elliott eighteenth, Ricky Rudd seventeenth, Kevin Harvick fourteenth, while Tony Stewart in fifth and Kurt Busch in fourth were closest to pulling off Coke's marketing upset.
Unfortunately, none of them could stop Jeff Gordon from winning from pole in his DuPont/Pepsi #24 for Hendrick Motorsports.
It was the biggest moment of the Cola Wars, but 2004 had another Pepsi vs. Coke battle going on at the same time: Bottlegate.
You see, despite the Viceroy rule normally stopping this kind of stuff, in 2004, NASCAR decided to have Gatorade (Pepsi) sponsor victory lane, while Powerade (Coke) bottles would be placed on the roof of the winning cars. How the hell was this allowed to happen? Well, despite the France family running both NASCAR and the International Speedway Corporation, at this time, NASCAR had a deal with Coke and ISC had a deal with Pepsi - the same people in the guise of two different companies signed deals with two rival brands. Of course this was going to cause issues.
Pepsi did not want their drivers in their victory lane photographed with bottles of a Coca-cola owned sports drink.
Thus, Bottlegate began.
Matt Kenseth, Mark Martin, Ryan Newman, Jeff Gordon, and Jimmie Johnson were all sponsored by Pepsi, thus, as soon as they got out of the car in victory lane, they would punch and/or sweep the bottles off the roof, instantly getting Coke products out of the pictures...which pissed off Coca-cola a lot.
They were paying good money just to see drivers knock over their product!
So, after the Pepsi 400, with the aforementioned embarrassment of Coca-cola, NASCAR made a rule banning drivers from punching the bottles off the cars.
Coke drivers won the next two races with Tony Stewart winning at Chicagoland and Kurt Busch winning at New Hampshire.
But then Pepsi's Jimmie Johnson won at Pocono on August 1st.
Well, instead of punching the bottles, Jimmie calmly got out of the car, received a giant cardboard Lowe's sign from someone on his crew, and placed it in front of the Powerade bottles.
I love this stuff, this is generational pettiness over here, the Coke guys and the Pepsi guys each trying to make the other brand look bad, it's great!
Unfortunately, Coke and NASCAR didn't seem to think so, because Jimmie Johnson was fined $10,000 over the sign incident.
So yeah, this was NASCAR in the 2000s, where corporate money was everywhere and there were enough sponsorships going around that the drivers, the tracks, and the series all had separate deals to have to worry about. Hell, three Roush drivers were with Coke and the other two were with Pepsi - compare that to nowadays where the vending machines at RFK Racing are from Fastenal.
How the hell am I supposed to drink a wrench?

seeing a communist angrily assert that of course Coca-Cola had death squads murder union organizers! is now making me doubt that it even happened, when I used to think it was true without thinking much about it
not because "everything a communist says is the opposite of the truth" but because the obvious undeniable evidence that had no other explanation he pointed to was that 24 "union organizers" died... over the course of 15 years.
if the case against Coke was "24 people who each attempted to be the individual leader of a labor union for one of your plants got murdered" then that would be incredibly suspicious, since there's no way that isn't "every single person who tried that." but there's also no way there's 24 people who tried that. if the case is "24 people, each of whom was involved in some fashion with a unionization attempt, were murdered over the course of 15 years, in Colombia and Guatemala, in the 80s and 90s," no that actually is not suspicious because there was a looooot of murdering by a lot of paramilitary death squads going on there for political and tactical reasons, and then the question of "was the coca-cola company actually involved or just the bottling plants it sold licenses to but did not directly command?"
but I can't actually find much information on this, just "everyone knows about the death squads working for coca cola" and details of one specific suit regarding the deaths of 3 people that was dismissed due to lack of evidence that coca-cola in the US was involved. I'm not gonn be all "this never happened it's commie propaganda" since I still find it plausible but I'd like to find more actual info about it

Some of you may remember me mentioning my quest to get black cherry soda and several shipments ending in tragic bottle breakage. I have been seriously craving this soda for nearly a month now.
I contacted Boylan and accused them of shoddy shipping.
They very politely informed me it was not their shoddy shipping store on Amazon.
After some additional Amazon analysis, I felt foolish about my inaccurate accusations.
They informed me there were no local distributors of Boylan brand bottled black cherry beverages. They said they had no control over Amazon shipments and recommended I order directly from them. That would make this already pretty pricey pop about $15 more expensive after shipping and tax.
I had nearly given up.
After the $220 pizza and the $250 battery replacement and an almost assured account overdraw in my future, I'd have to wait at least until next month to satisfy my soda craving.
But when I went to my local Schnucks grocery store last night I decided to check the soda aisle to see if there were any alternatives.
My first find was Schnucks' own generic brand black cherry soda.
I have to say, that is a cute label for a generic store brand product.
After some research, I discovered this is a rebrand of a classic Vess soda. I like Vess soda! They make a wonderful cream soda concoction that my grandma used to buy whenever I would visit on the weekends. And I specifically told my mom never to buy cream soda for home because then it wouldn't be special when I had it at my grandma's house.
Sadly, I was unaware it was Vess-in-disguise and I was not trusting of a generic store-branded soda. Sometimes these low-cost rebranded items can be good, but it is always a crapshoot. I mean, their generic peas are 70 cents cheaper than Green Giant, but they are also mushy as heck. So based on my previous peas experience, there was a good chance it would taste more like black cherry cough syrup than soda.
I didn't know it was Vess, okay?
REMEMBER THE PEAS, PLEASE!
I fell into a soda research rabbit hole. Vess was acquired by a company called Cott Beverages in 1994. And Cott was then acquired by a company called Refresco in 2018. And Refresco partnered with Coca-Cola and is now their main manufacturer in the United States.
So I guess it is actually a Refresco Cott Vess Schnucks brand black cherry soda in partnership with Coca-Cola.
Capitalism is fucking weird, dude.
So the possible cough syrup RefresCoVesScnhucks was in my cart. I was considering taking the risk.
But then I noticed... the Fitz's section.
A locally owned and operated boutique soda bottler.
*heavenly music*
And do you know who owns Fitz's?
Mr. Alfred J. Fitz! (I don't actually know his first name or middle initial.)
Who founded Fitz's in 1947 as a drive-in restaurant based around his popular secret root beer recipe.
That's right. Fitz's was not enveloped by an incestuous line of conglomerates successively eating each other.
And because of that, they went out of business in 1976. The soda biz is rough if you don't have a multinational manufacturing and distribution network.
But then Fitz's was revived in 1993 by two plucky entrepreneurs who were determined to rebuild the brand using the original secret root beer recipe from Mr. Alfred J. Fitz.
Small business wins the day!
And then they sold out to The Westgate Group in late 1999.
Which then sold it again to Clayton Capital Partners in 2003.
Will capitalism please stop fucking with soda?
But then one of those plucky entrepreneurs thought the brand was being damaged by soulless investment firms and bought back Fitz's. He restored it to glory and I'm sure he will never sell it again*. He is intent on maintaining the Fitz's tradition and image as a beloved St. Louis small business that culturally enriches our famed Delmar Loop with vintage soda bottling techniques customers can watch when they visit the Fitz's restaurant. Neat!
*Unless RefresCoVesScnhucks offers him a bunch of money.
I can't believe I forgot about Fitz's. I used their root beer as a subject for one of my favorite product photos.
To make a long story as long as humanly possible my god why are you even still reading this...
...wouldn't you know it, Fitz's makes black cherry soda!
It is delicious.
Craving accomplished.

Coca-Cola’s VitaminWater is being marketed as a healthy, hydrating drink. The company claims that the drinks prevent chronic diseases, reduce the risks of eye diseases, promotes healthy joints, and supports optimal immune function. However, nothing could be further from the truth.
This is what John Robbins, Esq., PhD., M.D. says in his Mat Hoffman Post article:
The product is basically sugar-water, to which about a penny’s worth of synthetic vitamins have been added. And the amount of sugar is not trivial. A bottle of vitaminwater contains 33 grams of sugar, making it more akin to a soft drink than to a healthy beverage.
The ingredients of “orange-orange”-flavored vitaminwater:
Reverse osmosis water, crystalline fructose, cane sugar, less than 0.5% of: citric acid, magnesiumlactate and calcium lactate and potassium phosphate (electrolyte sources), natural flavors, vitamin C (ascorbic acid), gum acacia, vitamin B3 (niacinamide), vitamin E (alpha-tocopheryl acetate), vitamin B5 (calcium pantothenate), glycerol ester of rosin, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), vitamin B12, beta-carotene, modified food starch, sorbitol.
VitaminWater’s sugar levels are very very high. One 500ml bottle contains 27 grams of sugar, that’s about 8 teaspoons of sugar!
Crystalline Fructose
Crystalline fructose is produced by allowing the fructose to crystallize from a fructose-enriched corn syrup. So basically, it is made from corn syrup, and not only corn syrup, but “fructose enriched” corn syrup. Crystalline Fructose contains 99.5% minimum of fructose assay, which is a greater higher percentage of fructose than what makes up high fructose corn syrup. Crystalline fructose may be contaminated with arsenic, lead, chloride and heavy metals. This type of fructose leads to increased belly fat, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome. Large amount of fructose can create a fatty liver and cirrhosis as it can not be processed completely in the liver. The fructose interferes and alters the metabolic process in our cells, which causes oxidative damage.
