Did Coca-Cola painted Christmas in Red.?

In 1926 Coca Cola introduced North America to Santa Claus. Before that Father Christmas, Cris Kringle and Cinder Claus all wore red. The Victorian age brought vivid colours to Christmas as new methods and colouring techniques were invented.

Aaliyah's Mama  - answered part of the question and she is right\nwhen coca cola first came out it was use as a drug to treat eplipsic cause it contained the drug cocaine in it .  Then it became a house hold drink.  \nand for some time they did not know why a lot of people back then were buying it right and let and getting buzzed out of there heads   until a few years later they found traces of cocaine that gave it most of it'e taste  since then coca cola company replaced the drug with arifishal flavor but now it does not contain any of the drug cocaine any more   you might be getting a surgar buzz if anything.

Yes, I should think so.\n\nAfter all, the shape of the Coca-Cola bottle was patented.\n\nDoes the bottle you are designing have a neat shape?\n\nYou could consult a patent attorney and find out for sure.\n\nGood luck on your design!

Allegedly yes.\n\nRemember at the time cocaine was considered a valuable medicine. Coca-Cola contained it and was named after it.\n\nHere is a copy of the alleged ad: http://boards.marihemp.com/boards/politics/media/75/75533.jpg

It was indeed "Pepsi Clear" and it was tasty, although definitely different than Pepsi.\nI wish it had succeeded, though: the caramel coloring on colas builds up on your teeth, whereas clear cola should have no such problem.

No.  Just sorry they didn't make it all year.  It is so much - family, presents, drinks, presents, songs, presents, parties, presents.  I am sorry they invented Jesus to go along with Christmas, though.

I don't know if Yahoo does, but I do. I have been painting on christmas ornaments for 17 years. I have a pretty good business going. I paint whatever you want on them, and then personalize the back side of the ornament. I charge $10.00 a piece plus shipping and handling. If you are interested, schmitt_wendy@yahoo.com, not much time left before christmas!!!

Wow..someone is really missing the whole point of christmas. Thats really sad Cynthia K if you dont know that the whole idea of santa claus was based on a man who really existed. Christmas is about the birth of jesus, and is about others being kind and warm to each other and showing how much they love each other. It was based on Saint Nicholas (dutch), who gave presents to poor children. The custom of giving gifts on a special day in winter was around before christianity came to be.  The first Dutch settlers who came to America had a figure of Saint Nicholas on the front of their ship. After christianity was well established, Saint Nicholas became a customary symbol among christians for christmas. The Dutch celebrated the feast day on December 6th and said Saint Nicholas visited their homes the night before leaving gifts. In time, English settlers adopted the legends and festivities associated with Saint Nicholas. English-speaking children spoke the Dutch name for the saint, Sinterklaas, quickly and excitedly so that it sounded like Santy Claus or Santa Claus.

Nope, it's not Coca-Cola. It's pretty much what Coke was inspired from, though. She, and a lot of other people of her time and stature liked Vin Mariani.

hey check this out:\n\nLet's start with the history. Coke started out with cocaine in it, hence the name Coke. That's not cool. I like my soft drinks to be 100% drug-free. I've heard of dying thirst, but not dying while quenching thirst ! Secondly, Coke is just plain "evil". In undergrad, during lunch I've had a soda from the soda machine once in a while. Never had any problems with Pepsi, but once I had to get a Coke (I guess Pepsi was out at that time), I got the soda, went back to my table and gently set it down. A few minutes later, I twisted the cap, and the thing exploded. That's not cool either ! Not at all ! Another time when I bought a Coke, I set it down on the table. A few minutes later, completely by itself, the bottle fell over, breaking the cap, and the thing exploded again. A friend of mine used to work in a store and Pepsi outsold Coke about 6 to 1. She even said that the Pepsi delivery guys are much cooler than the guys from Coke. Moreover, Pepsi's blue is a much better color than Coke's silly red.
