Pepsi ftw! Coke sucks.

I don't really think 8 oz will really make a difference. I didn't read it but I saw it on AOL news, it said the ingredients were written on some piece of paper years ago.. it's probably have changed by now.

Get over it, alcohol is just a chemical compound. I drink a lot of Coke and I've never got drunk off it. So I really don't care :/

Distilling Alcohol to make a beverage is different.
