BEETLE JUICE 😳😳😳 "Coca-Cola"

Coca-Cola under the microscope: "To drink, or not to drink"

Back in 2006 Turkey, for the first time in the world, started a trial against Coca-Cola for the composition of the drink.

Coca-Cola's label usually says it contains sugar, phosphorous acid, caffeine, caramel, carbon dioxide and some kind of "extract".

It was this extract that raised suspicion. The Coca-Cola company was forced to reveal the secret of what Coca-Cola is actually made of. It turned out to be a liquid derived from the Cochineal insect.

Cochineal is an insect that lives in the Canary Islands and Mexico. This insect attaches itself to the plant with a hobot, sucks out its juice and never moves from its place. Special fields are being prepared for Cochineal insects. These insects in the field are collected by local villagers. From the females and eggs of these insects produce a pigment called lipstick, which colors coca-cola brown. Dried Cochineal looks like a raisin, but it's actually an insect.

You now understand what the word "Coca" means in the name of the drink.
