Pepsi - the choice of a nauseous generation!
We’ve had sick kids lately. Here’s a GREAT tip: If you feel like you’re going to puke, drink flat Pepsi. Seriously. It’s miraculous. Just pour it back and forth between a couple of glasses until it stops fizzing, and then drink it. You’ll feel better in seconds.
I mentioned this to a guy at work today, who had never heard of this wonderful use for Pepsi, so I thought I’d share the info.

I would guess this would probably be along the lines of the pepsi basically being a “base” and functioning similar to an antacid…
Maybe…
Interesting discovery.
I would suggest trying combining Diet Coke and Mentos next.
(Google that before you try putting it in the kids!)

Mentos + Diet Coke + Children = catastrophic mess.
I saw the video. The kids made us watch it several times. I think they might enjoy the experiment themselves (internally of course).

Hmm we always used regular flat coke. When I was a kid my mom used to buy coke syrup in a medicine like bottle ….. for just that purpose…..
Of course you can also use coke or pepsi to help clean a corrded battery terminal!
Hmmmm I’m a diet coke addict and now I am jonesing for a Diet Coke!
