Enjoy the following less-known Coca Cola facts :
- Do you know that if you throw a can of diet Coke into a pool of water, it will float? Whereas a can of regular Coke will sink. I wonder why that is. Maybe you should check out the ingredients in both these drinks to see why this happens. Try it out. Go and throw a can of both drinks into water and see which one floats and which one sinks.
- The Coca Cola company is known to own the world's second largest truck fleet. That must be a lot of Coke being transported throughout America.

- When accidents happen on the highway and you've got blood all over the road, guess what the cleaners use to clean up the blood? You guess right. Coca Cola.
