It was too late to party last night or sleepless all night, but it was supposed to be a good morning, but I couldn't get up all the time because I was in poor spirits. Faced with this situation, most people usually use a cup of mellow coffee to wake up, but if it is Coke-flavored coffee, would you be willing to try it?

Vending machine limit! Coke Coffee takes the stage

Sometimes I really have to admire the Japanese who have an endless stream of creativity. after transparent black tea, milk tea and coriander-flavored potato chips, this time there is coffee with cola flavor, which does sound a little unthinkable. after all, Coke and coffee, two kinds of drinks with strong flavors, what would be the wonderful taste if combined together, the Japanese Coca-Cola Company, which is quite experimental. Decided to let its coffee brand Georgia meet Coke, through the technology of coffee and cola together into a new product "Coca-Cola Coffee Plus"!

Coca-Cola Coffee Plus has 50% more caffeine than regular cola on the market, but 50% fewer calories. For example, an average can of 190ml Coke Coffee contains 34mg caffeine. In fact, this is not the first time Coca-Cola has launched a product combined with coffee. As early as 2006, it launched the Coca-cola Blak series of Coca-Cola with a very simple black style and coffee flavor, but the product was halved early because of its poor taste and excessive caffeine after only two years of sale. For those who want to taste fresh Coca-Cola Coffee Plus, this Coke-flavored coffee is currently only sold in vending machines in Kanto, Tohoku and Donghai regions of Japan.

In terms of taste, many people who have drunk it say that it tastes similar to ordinary Coke, but it is more full-bodied. Of course, some people say that it will not taste particularly delicious, but it is not as bad as expected.

Memory chewing gum

In addition to Coke Coffee, there has been a heated discussion about a mysterious food in Japan recently, which is the "memory gum" that can help you get rid of the goldfish brain. Just listening to the name, many people will think that this is just a gimmick marketing strategy offered by manufacturers. After all, it is like a prop that will appear in Doraemon cartoons. Is it really possible to greatly improve people's memory?

Rakuten, Japan, presented data for this purpose, saying that 19.2 mg of ginkgo biloba brass sugar and 4.8 mg of ginkgo terpene lactones were added to the gum, and after tests and comparisons before and after ingestion, it was claimed that it could help the middle-aged and elderly to maintain their memory and relieve their declining memory, and it was designed to avoid sticking dentures, so that middle-aged and elderly people could feel at ease.

Memory gum has been officially sold, divided into granular and flaky packaging, the granule has the flavor of "ginkgo", while the golden flake has the taste of "mint". Although Rakuten claims to help memory, Rakuten also stresses that chewing gum is not a medicine and is not suitable for treating or preventing diseases. In particular, each piece of packaging film is also printed with interesting memory test questions, which is very interesting to see if you still remember the shape and pattern of the third one on the right.
