Coca-Cola's recipe is hardly secret, it's right there in the name.

Yeah I was going to say, surely there are no secret recipes now a days? At least not in products commercially available seeing as it's illegal to sell anything without clearly stating what ingredients have gone into it.

I imagine the only secret when it comes to Coca-Cola is what order they add the teeth rotting chemicals into the broth.

I'm pretty sure there are some spice blends you can just label as "assorted herbs and spices" to keep flavours secret. AFAIK KFC's spice blend is unknown outside a select few.

I'm 95% certain that the "secret formula" nonsense in stuff like KFC and Coke are just marketing placebos.

: What is the secret recipe for IRN-BRU?

A: The recipe for IRN-BRU is known by only three people in the world, former Chairman Robin Barr,his daughter Company Secretary and Legal Affairs Manager Julie Barr and one other A.G.Barr p.l.c board director whose identity remains confidential. The secret recipe has been passed down from one generation of the Barr family to another since 1901 when BARRS IRON BREW (as it was then spelt) was launched by Robert Barr and his son Andrew Greig Barr. On the announcement of his retirement from the role of Chairman in 2009, Robin Barr confirmed that he will continue to mix the secret recipe for IRN-BRU at the company’s headquarters in Cumbernauld. In true Barr tradition, he has now passed the secret recipe onto his daughter, Julie Barr – who will keep the recipe a secret for generations of IRN-BRU drinkers to come.
Beyond confirming that BARRS IRON-BREW was launched in 1901 containing 32 ingredients I am afraid we can tell you no more.

I thought the recipe for Irn Bru was Carbonated Scottish Tramp Piss.

A quick google says that was samples of new drinks still being developed.

The real puzzler is what happens to all the chisel extracted from the coca leaves, must be tons of the fucking stuff.

Wasn't sure where to put this so this will do I suppose, does anyone else like to just put an oxo cube in to a beverage cup and add a little herbs of any kind and drink it like you would say coffee or am I just strange? I'm on my second cup now.

@OptimusPube

You're adding water to this Oxocube, right?

Late Father-in-law, who I never got to meet, had jam on his boiled eggs.

His son eats those cheap and nasty Iceland chilled 'desserts' (pink with the cream on top) on a fried egg sandwich.
