Yep. And Coca Cola was originally only sold at soda fountains in drug stores 'cause it was just so darn good for you! All the sugar and a dab of cocaine!
Thex Dar - Yep. My dad, born in 1908, said Cokes were called "nickel dopes" back when he was a boy. He also said you opened a bottle not by removing a cap, but by pushing a ball down in the neck. The ball was apparently kept in place sealing the contents by the pressure of the gas.
Thex Dar Many plusses for that one:-)
