My Coke Can Collection

Look at this cool Coke bottle Soccer ball!  I picked this up at a local supermarket here in Ontario for $.99.  No, wait I think it was 2 for $2.49 at the time.  Well anyway they’re on sale now for $.99 everywhere.  This is the first one in a series.  I’ve got a couple of different ones now.  This isn’t the greatest picture perhaps, but you get the idea.  If you’ve read my post Read more »

Here’s a photo of the light-up Coke bottle given away at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic games.  Thanks to Larry for sending my the photo!  These bottles are quite rare.  I found a YouTube video of the bottle as it flashes.  A quick check on eBay reveals that these cool bottles are selling for upwards of $40.  Apparently Coca-Cola gave away 50,000 of these items.  I have yet to see one in person, however.

Diet Coke with Bacon flavour

I blogged about “Diet Coke with Bacon flavor” a few months ago.  I was totally making that story up about how it tasted.  Turns out that was one of my more popular posts!  I guess a lot of people were fooled.  I found this photo on the net of Diet Coke with Bacon a while ago and decided to have some fun with it.  I suspect that some graphic-arts student put it together for a laugh.

 There are however a lot of real Diet Coke flavors.  Here’s a list:

• Diet Coke Cherry
• Diet Coke Black Cherry Vanilla
• Diet Coke Raspberry
• Diet Coke Lemon
• Diet coke Lime

I didn’t mention all the other variants of the recipe like Diet Caffeine-free Coke, of Diet Coke Plus.

Look at this solid glass Coca-Cola bottle.  This picture was sent to me by Larry Slivinsky, a fellow Coke Collector.  I love this thing.  I’d bet it makes a great conversation piece on his desk!  I wonder if this is an official (licensed) Coke collectible item, or if it’s someone’s tribute to the famous Coke bottle?

Here’s a photo of his brass coke bottle as well.  I wonder how many of these were made?  If you have one, or can tell me about either of them, please leave me a comment!
