    The person who had the lengthy the explanation about cocaine and Coca-Cola was correct - it just wasn’t what I was talking about. I was referencing diet pills in the '50s that were made out of amphetamines (“momma’s little helpers”).

      You did so in comparison to cocaine, in response to something that only mentioned cocaine in the context of cocaine cola. If you say it wasn’t cocaine but speed back then, how am I supposed to get that you are referencing diet pills and not at all contradicting the whole cocaine cola bit?

      But yeah, diet pills were basically just speed back then too. I can’t argue that. Not sure why that’s related to cocaine in cola though. Turns out people do all kinds of drugs, especially when readily available.
