hey guys :)
Ok all of what im about to say is totaly true and I learnt it from my History teacher today.
Coca Cola was founded in 1895 as a medical drink that would make people feel better. It contained extracts of cocain and many people became adicited to it. The coca cola company in New Orleans was raided by over 1500 consumers who killed 10 people just to get some coca cola. They removed the cocain and continued to sell it.
The coca cola cans were coloured green and white and their mascot was St Nicholas. They had the pictures of him wearing a green jacket and he lived in the woods making presents for children. Coca Cola changed their packaging and doing so changed the appearence of st nick to red and white. He therefore became known as Santa clause, father christmas and loads more names.
So Father christmas, the god to many children was actually made by a drug dealing company O_o

Hahhhaha! I knew coke used to contain cocaine and that it was used for medical purposes. But I didn't know that people killed to get it, that the cans were colored white and green, nor that the Coca Cola company invented Santa. :eek:

Yeah, I knew it had cocaine in it, why do you think it's called COCA Cola?

I didn't know santa claus was that 'young'. I though the separation from St. Nicholas was much older.
Interesting facts. Completely irrelevant...but interesting.
