Today's Coca-Cola's 125th birthday - virtual tour of their archives

[miel]

I know some of you have visited the World of Coke while in Atlanta for ProgPower and may appreciate this.

To celebrate, Coca-cola, has enabled us to take a virtual tour through their archives.. where they keep 125 years worth of memorabilia. Click here to see.

As kids in this area, we're all taken on school field trips to the World of Coke. It's a Southern rite of passage, I suppose. After all, we do call every carbonated beverage "coke".

ps - the World of Coke is one of the area attractions listed within the facebook photo album here.

Loved the Coke II exhibit but still miss that original pre-1985 original Coke taste. It was never the same.

There's a boutique little burger place here that imports Coca-Cola from the Caribbean and Mexico. Not only does the Coke have real sugar rather than high fructose corn syrup, I am convinced that Coke tastes better when it is in the green glass bottles.

The restaurant also serves a Krispy Kreme milkshake that has been known to provoke foodgasms.

Still younger than MOXIE by about 28 years!

If you've got Moxie you've got taste!

I don't think it was a field trip but I do remember going to the WoC when i was younger and still lived in atlanta & remember hearing that there was like 33 flavors of sprite (my only other drink besides water, literally) or something.
