Coke!

Okay so this blog post is going to be all about the magic drink that is known as coke. Now I know what most of you are thinking that coke is really not the best drink out there for you. And for the most part I would have to agree with you on that. However, let me tell you why I think it is magical.

So for the most part I do not really drink coke all that much. I find it to be not something that I am really fond of and the taste is not really to my liking, I prefer a nice Root Beer instead. But that all changes when I head overseas.

So many of you have heard the old story that if you leave like a piece of meat in coke over night and then check in on it the next day, the meat will have been dissolved. This is 100% true, coke contains some very powerful ingredients that will take out a lot of things, but this is why I love coke so much when I am overseas.

So one of the first things you need to know about traveling abroad is that you will get food poisoning at least once in your life, no matter how hard you try to avoid it, it just will happen. I am afraid that our American food system is really good, and most other countries do not always have the same standards for their foods. So in the end, you will be spending a night in some bathroom wishing that the food would just get the heck out and you no longer have to fell so bad. For me a trip outside of the States is not complete without getting food poising at least once.

But back to the topic, coke should always be you drink of choice outside of the states. Remember all those things I said about it and how it was powerful, well that will prevent you from ever getting anything. Well hopefully. I know that for me this Christmas I was once again in Malaysia visiting the Fiancee and I made sure to drink twice as much coke this time, and I didn't get sick at all!!

So there is your 411, make sure to have a coke a day, it keeps the toilet away!
