And now for the Daily Double. Who knows the origination of modern sodas, back before they were nothing but carbonated sugar water with bunch of chemicals mixed in?

Pssst...there's an even stronger solution of hydrochloric acid already in your stomach. And you know what else removes battery corrosion just as well as Coke? Vinegar. Uh oh. Better stop eating anything made with vinegar now. ^_^
Well if you want to drink loads of vinegar all day long then have at it. And where did I tell anyone to stop drinking coke? Coke also has sugar in it. Uh oh! I guess I am gonna be accused to telling people not to have anything with sugar in it now... :/

Take your pick of carbonated beverages, they will all clean battery terminals because of the carbonation (Co2), the higher the carbonation level the better it works. A solution of baking soda in water works the same way for the same reason.



Actually it's spelled "Barq's". "Barq's has bite" actually references the flavor, not the caffeine. Most large name root beers (A&W, Mug, etc) have a smooth creamy flavor whereas Barq's has kind of a spicy bite.
Thanks for explaining its the carbonation that cleans the battery, but in my house coke is alot easier to come by that trying to find baking soda lol.

Uh oh. I guess this means I don't think people should use anything with baking soda now.........

Is that beverage like sparkling apple juice? Actually, I rarely drink pop. Next time I go to my local super Walmart I will see if Appletizer is stocked on the shelves. I will probably require a six-pack.
yup, that's the thing.
Hehe

I just drink milk, which is the opposite of a satanic drink: It is nectar from the heavens.

Unfortunately it's satanic for those who are intolerant! >.<

Coffee, on the other hand... :D

The chemicals!!!! Oh noes!!!!

All the chemicals are teh evils! Did you know that the sodas contain a chemical called dihydrogen monoxide that is often lethal if inhaled? All chemicals should totally be banned, because it's the Freemasons trying to brainwash us into joining the Illuminati!
Actually, the Illuminati uses disinformation to make things seem so crazy that it can't possibly be true....... similar to what you just did.;):p:rolleyes:

Are you saying that some people who think they've been drug free their whole life didn't know that they were secretly doing cocaine? O:

Plus back in the day, cocaine, heroine, opium, and a variety of other narcotics by today's knowledge, were used as medicine. It's not so much that people were deceived. It was a widely accepted as a medication. And like oncefallen had mentioned, it was taken out of the drink.

I have a close family member who has been through just about every treatment, surgery, and procedure under the sun for back pain multiple times, but still finds little to no relief.

At one point within the past 3 years, the doctors suggested a prescription for opium... to which we were all like, ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? Thankfully, we answered as a family with one unanimous and resounding NO, THANK YOU!!!

I was personally shocked out of my gourd that such a thing would even be recommended.
