OP, your friend definitely has an addiction if he NEEDS Coke like the way you describe him.

I've been finding that I like to drink Coke quite a bit. It's bad with all the sugar in it, so I resort to Coke Zero, which has no calories... but tons of chemicals! I like other sodas, but I've have not refused Coke because I didn't prefer it. (I like root beer, gingerale, and other sodas too.) I don't drink carbonated drinks as religiously as a lot of people I know do, though. I know a friend that can down a case of Red Bull over a day, and of course we all know our local and lovable Dew fanatics.

I would not say I am addicted, but I drink enough of it... 3-4 liters a week, and that is pretty much I think. But I am not addicted, it is just a habit. Coca cola is not my favourite, this other thing I tasted in Brazil was like a thousand times better... Guarana or something like that.

lol reading ur posts i would say most people are addicted to it but dont even know.

Like you say you always see people walking down the street with a bottle of cola and most people go for coca cola rather than any other drink.

I myself am probably addicted to Lucozade

You should probably at least try to get your friend to stop the coke addiction, with all that sugar intake, he'll probably get diabetes when he's older, you should inform him of at least that.
Oh, and don't let him drink your coke.

@Bluebear - you can get an highly caffeinated energy drink called "Bawls", that has Guarana

Well, you should really stop your friend from drinking so much coca-cola, not only does it destroy teeth like a tow missile, but with all those sugar in it, you'd probably be better off eating mistletoe...

Anyways, personally I don't drink coca-cola... I've gotta admit that it tastes pretty good, but barely ever drink it, and only drink it if I have to, but even if I'm just invited to drink coca-cola, I won't drink it...

Having the thought of that experiment where they put a steel nail inside a bottle of coca-cola and a week later, it disappeared, having been eroded away COMPLETELY by the coca-cola...

Yea, acid does wonders at eroding away things, but a steel nail? Could you provide me with a link?
That thought scares me.

I got my source from here:

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Can_coca_cola_an...ve_a_steel_nail

The validity isn't very valid, and so, maybe not a steel nail, so probably an iron nail, but more likely... Teeth (or as the orks call it "teef")
