Pepsi Max is good for pouring into drinking devices (like cups or glasses), as it has a lot more gas fortified in it than other soft-drinks... but not good to drink straight from a bottle (because of all that gas it releases as you drink it).


Coke Zero was only created to combat the rising threat of Pepsi Max against Coke's monopoly of the Cola market in this country. Pepsi was insignificant in our Country before they created "Max" (it does better as a brand in America though)... and even still, the regular Pepsi variety hasn't really benefited from Max's success. If it wasn't for Pizza Hut and KFC exclusively stocking Pepsi brands, it probably would have disappeared as a product long before Max was created to save the brand.

And now, a couple months ago both Coles and Woolies introduced a "Zero" generic brand cola despite already having a "diet" variety that is basically the same thing, especially when it comes to generic branded softdrink.

Yes. Yes you do. Have you ever considered working in the industry? Putting all that knowledge to good (profitable) use?

All the tags are colour coded too, as a former 'bread merchandiser' we used to pull anything with a tag 2 days old, then it was off to the pigs.

You know what i find scary? A raid was done on a kids locker today (yes i go to high school) and he's year 7 (so 13-14) and he had drugs... I'd like to know how f'd up this world is where a kid in a town where the police aren't even here for 7 days a week can get drugs

Something to restore your faith in humanity; 2016 Calgary Police Chief's Award Gala have honoured the following citizens for exceptional bravery in saving the lives of complete strangers.
* Four skateboarders who stopped a woman from being raped and detained the would-be rapist until police arrived.
* A woman who chased away a group of attackers and tended to the victims' wounds until help arrived.
* A man who performed CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on an unconscious driver who'd suffered a heart attack.
* A young man and woman who saw a man bashing his ex-wife (with their children screaming in the back seat of their car). They stopped the attack, called police, and looked after the woman until police arrived.
