> also, carmel color is very rich in advanced glycation end products, so avoid Diet Coke!
Interesting, why can't all of chemistry not provide a better formulation for darkening Coke? is there something difficult to mask in there?
I would bet money there are many different ways to color a beverage similarly. But I would bet even more money that Coca-Cola won't ever change its formula, and especially not based on dietary research. When there's public paranoia and sales suffer, they'll introduce something like Coke Plus in an effort to win over a more health-conscious market. They'll keep making Coke Classic same as it ever was and keep selling it to everyone else.
