  • Have you got a Makro card (or know someone with one), or other wholesaler? Might be worth checking into.
    Oh well...

    I cannot tell any difference between pepsi & coke.

    Exactly what I was thinking!

    Actually, I can't either. Mind you, I never really drink the stuff to be honest though if I do have either I most definitely can't tell which is which. Maybe this might be down to the fact that I've hardly ever drank the stuff though I wonder if it's the brand people prefer rather than the taste <controversial>. Not sure if I could tell the difference even in a blind taste test to tell the truth.

    Mind you, and even more controversial, drinking cola is supposed to increases the risk of osteoporosis in older women, according to US researchers.

    Though the likes of Coca Cola dispute this. According to Coca Cola drinking caffeinated or sparkling soft drinks doesn't weaken your bones or cause osteoporosis.

    I also remember reading in the Nursing Times that it recommended drinking carbonated water instead, and especially if you had a history of osteoporosis in your family. Apparently this helps attract vitamin k to the bones rather than the opposite. Apparently, and from what I remember reading, cola does the opposite.
  • found a local pound land store that gave me the bottles for 95p each 2 litre expiry aug 2012 - bargains

    Aldi's two litre bottles of cola are 39p and taste pretty much like the real thing :)

    Try Costco if you can - works out cheap and you could easily buy the quantity you need
