COCA-COLA Just when you thought you knew everything....

To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl.
Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The
citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china. To
remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a
crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in
Coca-Cola. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a
can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the
corrosion. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in
Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes. To bake a
moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan; wrap
the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the
ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix
with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy. To remove grease from
clothes: Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add
detergent, And run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will
help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from
your windshield.

AND WE DRINK THIS STUFF! (FYI... the active ingredient in coke
is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. it will dissolve a nail in
about 4 days.) The distributors of coke have been using it to
clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!
