Coke vs. Water

March 22, 2008 by · 3 Comments

I’m always getting those “coke vs. water” e-mails so I’m going to look at one of the more positive aspects of coke right now: the cleaning abilities it apparently has. No, I don’t have blood on my driveway that needs cleaning off- like the state police apparently carry around a couple 2 liters of coke to wash blood off the highway- no, my need is much simpler. My extra bathroom’s toilet is dirty in the bowl, I’ve cleaned the top, but I’m too lazy to walk across my small house to my other bathroom where is brush is stored. So, I’m going to pour a can of coke in the bowl and see what happens. I’ll keep up updated…

PS. Can someone give me a word other than “apparently” to use? I use that word waaay too much in general when I write.

    didn’t work. Maybe I needed to use a 2 liter of coke b/c a can didn’t do the trick. I’ll try it again but for now… Myth BUSTED!

    LOL . . .Why were you cleaning the bathroom with a can of coke handy and not cleaning supplies?? LOL

    And, how ironic is it that I just cleaned my bathrooms and decided I needed a break, so I sat down to read my blogs and viola . . .Heidi is talking about cleaning bathrooms? LOL

    It was great to spend some time with you yesterday! Love ya!

    According to Myth Busters, Coke can also clean rust off a chromed fender. With aluminum foil. It will also dissolve a tooth in about nine days. (old science project) Dunno about your toilet. Maybe it would dissolve it, too, and then you wouldn’t have to clean it! :)

    Um…. apparently is also: actually, evidently, obviously, seemingly, ostensibly…. you pick. :)
