Went to a drink store (Getränke Markt) in Aachen, Germany today. To my surprise I saw that all local soda brands were almost sold out(Fritz, Afri, Sinalco) and Coca Cola was almost not touched. I was very pleasantly impressed by this. Seems like more people are joining with the small consumer choices to buy from EU rather than US. Do more people notice this elsewhere?

    I’ve been boycotting them for a while (BDS), but it’s good to see that more people are joining in.

        Does cola leave a weird texture on anyone else’s teeth and tongue? I hate the rough/sticky feeling that cola leaves behind.

        That shit is dissolving our enamel with all the sugar and acid.

          That shit is probably dissolving our enamel.

          What do you mean “probably”? That exactly what all the dentists have been warning us about since the dawn of dentistry.

            Idk why I said probably. I just meant that when this feeling starts, thats what happens. Like „as we speak“ kinda thing. Sorry I suck at explaining.

            Gonna edit my comment.
