If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I thought it was peanuts in Pepsi, and it was a southern thing.

The combination is with Pepsi, not Coke.

I never did it, but my grandfather did.

Oops, Mike beat me by mere seconds.  Yeah, more of a southern thing...

I could get into the history of it, but I think Garden and Gun magazine did the same a few months ago.

I've seen peanuts in Pepsi, Coke, and Dr. Pepper.

Same here, but mainly Coke and DP.  I always thought it was a Coke thing since Coke is from Georgia, which grows lots of peanuts.

Pepsi started in NC.  Is NC known for peanuts?
Islamic sex dolls.  Do they blow themselves up?

Growing up it was Coke and it was mostly folk who were teenagers in the 1950s. So 40-50 year olds when I was adolescent/teenager.

This type of rabble rousing keeps up and pretty soon people will be pairing Moon Pies with RC cola. ;)   :old:

Never done it, but if you're looking for Coke in glass in CA, Costco or Mexican holes in the wall. You'll get glass plus Coke with real sugar. The story said this started in the 1920's, when soda used sugar, so that might make a flavor difference.

It always makes a flavor difference.

(And if you're ever in the Dublin TX area, try a Dublin Bottling Works Black Cherry Soda for a pretty darn good approximation of what real Dr Pepper used to be.)

Or hipster food stores.  Real cane sugar is preferred over HFCS in all of the finer hipster establishments.

As a bonus, when you buy a 6-pack in a hipster store you get a bonus clip on man bun.

I thought that was JamisJockey's corner.  Did he run you out of business?

Okay, I thought you were going to say that you bought a 6 pack in a hipster store and got your favorite clip on man bun as well.  :P

Nah, I'd pop in for a bag of chips and it would look like a tribble convention.

I've acquired the needed inputs. As soon as the Coke is cold I'll give it a try.

Once you have mastered the art of goobers and Coke then you will be ready for the next big step; Pepsi and M&Ms, drink a little Pepsi and pour a bag of plain M&Ms into the bottle. That was an Okie thing.
