Coca Cola used to be green, and other stupid urban myths people believe

It was never green. Coke, that is. The first bottles were made out of green glass, but the drink itself was always brown.   Do a little research  and you find out the same.
I overheard someone today say that apparently Mc Donalds Apple Pies are actually made out of turnips. Yes, and they also grind up cow eyeballs and put them in their burgers. NOT!! Come on people!!  Where is the logic in that!!  First of all, the apples in the McD's pies are apples. Turnips are not in the ingredient list, and, by law, they have to list all the ingredients because there are so many people with food allergies these days. Not to mention food intollerances, and a wealth of other problems.

As for cow eyeballs? Please, this shouldn't even need explaining. Why would they go to all that trouble? The average cow only has 2 eyes - this should make them a delicacy.

And don't even get me started on the e-mails. Chances are, if it says "This is not a Joke!" it probably is. And its also the product of someone who has way too much time on their hands.

My point is, people need to use thier brains more often. God gave us all the gift of logic.  Look it up! Don't believe everything you read/hear and for goodness sake - if it sounds far-fetched that means it is!
