they took the coke out of coke, that's why it's still legal, they probably should have re named it black sugar water or something like that...
it's like plutomium is illegal, but it's legal if you buy a packet of cigarettes, what a strange double standards world we live in.....

Because for something to be legal it must start with a capital letter. Coke does, but coke doesn't.

when the drink coke was first made it had an ingredient in it called 'coke' which was later discovered to be a drug, so was taken out of the drink, which made the drink fine to drink, and the drug 'coke' illegal.

Coke is illegal because only a lame-brained person would use it.

Coke is illegal...it's a drug. Coke (as in the drink) is not illegal as it no longer has coke (the drug) in it.

coke rots your teeth so it is legal -- oh and kills latin americans trying to set up unions -- thats legal too. coke that rots your septum and makes profits for individuals and not corporations is illegal.
