Blech

Coke to launch coffee-infused Coke Blak

Obviously, Pepsi will come up with something like Pepsi Noir. Then Coke will add lime. And Pepsi will add hazelnuts and lemon. And then Coke will offer a fully sugarnated version called Coke Blak Power. And then a diet version called Coke Blak Light. And then Pepsi will offer Pepsi Coffee-free, with all the flavor of coffee, but no actual coffee. And with the great flavor of cherry-vanilla. Then Coke will come up with Sprite Arabica Blast Thirst Quencher with Mango Chutney and Walnut Hulls. And then Pepsi will counter that with Uncoffee 7-Up with Eucalyptus and Echinacea.

I hope.

Coke Blech! I like coffee and I like diet cokes, but a mixture doesn't even sound good.

Why, it's a dessert topping AND a floor wax!

If I may quote a Bloom County, Coke War Era:

"one thing should be noted. They both taste like malted battery acid."
