    I'm trying to figure out if that super special ingredient has any significant effect on the taste >_<

    Is there actually coca leaf extra in Coke? A special deal with the US Govt to process it? I thought that was just an urban legend.

    There is an extract in Coke that is made from coca leaves, but almost all of the cocaine is gone. There is a special deal with the DEA whereby a separate company extracts the cocaine and sends it to a pharmaceutical company, while they send other extracts to Coke. They source the coca leaves from somewhere in S. America, I believe.
