I love this fucking time of year. Coke and Pepsi (in cities with decent sized Jewish populations, including Pittsburgh), release kosher versions of their colas every year for Passover. I’m not Jewish, and I know most of you aren’t either, but it is a windfall for us nonetheless: Kosher Coke and Pepsi contain no High Fructose Corn Syrup, because HFCS is unkosher. They are sweetened with pure sucrose instead, which makes the soda taste a thousand times fucking better. Also, many people are wary of health effects of HFCS, while sucrose is just sugar. We accidentally got a few dozen 2 liters at work, and I’ll probably end up buying half of them. If you can find any, buy it. ---

Coke and Mountain Dew are typically Kosher but not for Passover. When Passover comes, some of the food and beverages that are typically kosher, now are not. The only way to tell is if they have " OK for Passover " somewhere on the product. There is a lot of food that people eat everyday that is kosher. Next time you go and by food, if there is a ![http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:AfomiZflWz_qqM:http://z.about.com/d/kosherfood/1/0/8/-/-/-/symbol_ou.gif](http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:AfomiZflWz_qqM:http://z.about.com/d/kosherfood/1/0/8/-/-/-/symbol_ou.gif) or an ![http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:4tkqjbR-YigfAM:http://www.mazornet.com/jewishcl/Kosher/Ok.gif](http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:4tkqjbR-YigfAM:http://www.mazornet.com/jewishcl/Kosher/Ok.gif) symbol, then the food you are buying is kosher. Here are some examples or kosher beverages: A&W - (Root Beer, Cream Soda & Rochester Orange) Aquafina Essentials (Pineapple, Sunfruit, Tangerine Watermelon, Wildberry) Aquafina Sparkling (Original, Berry, Lemon Lime) Aquafina Splash (Citrus, Raspberry, Wildberry) Arizona Iced Tea and Flavored Water (when bearing O/U) Barq’s (Cream, French Vanilla Cream, Red Creme, Red Rattler, Root Beer) Club Soda (any brand unflavored) Coca Cola (Coke, Caffeine Free, Classic, C2, Cherry Coke, Coke with Lemon, Coke with Lime, Vanilla Coke) Cott (Cherry, Cola, Cream, Grape, half & half, Lemon Up, Orange, Quinine, Root Beer) Country Delight (when bearing O/U) Country Time Liquid (Regular Lemonade, Pink Lemonade - All Powders are certified when bearing O/K) Crush (Birch Beer, Cream, Grape, Lime,Orange, Peach, Pineapple, Pink Grapefruit, Red Cream, Red Licorice, Spruce Beer, Strawberry, Tropical Punch) Crystal Light (Liquids and Powders are certified when bearing O/K) Dad’s Root Beer Dr. Pepper (Regular, Cherry Vanilla, Red Fusion) Lipton Iced Tea (Diet Lemon, Green Tea with Passion Fruit, Lemon Sweet, Peach, Plain, Plain Sweet, Raspberry, Tea & Lemonade) Lipton Southern Style (Lemon, Sweet No Lemon, Extra Sweet No Lemon) Mello Yellow Minute Maid - Not Juice (Limeade, Yellow Lemonade) Minute Maid Soda (Blue Cherry, Blueberry, Cherry, Fruit Punch, Grape, Grape Medley, Lemonade, Mixed Berry Fruit, Orange, Passionfruit Orange, Peach, Pineapple, Pink Lemonade, Raspberry Lemonade, Sour Blue Raspberry, Strawberry, Light Lemonade, Light Raspberry Passion, Light Guava Citrus, Light Valencia Orange) Mountain Dew (Regular, Caffeine Free, AMP, Blue Shock, Code Red, Livewire, Pitchblack) Mr. Pibb Mug (Cream Soda, Root Beer) Nestea Iced Tea (Lemon Sweet, Peach, Premium, Raspberry, Sweetened Southern Sytle, Unsweetened Southern Style) Nestea Cool Iced Tea (Plain, Lemon, Peach Freezer, Raspberry Cooler) Nestle Splash Flavored Water (O/U) Pepsi Cola (Regular, Caffeine Free, Holiday Spice, Pepsi Blue, Pepsi Edge, Pepsi One, Pepsi Twist, Wild Cherry) Here is link that I use to double check items that I am not a 100% sure on.

america is fat because of technology. people dont have to work hard, people dont go outside to exercize. think about it…people used to walk to the market everyday to get food for diner… mom and pop stores are dead so you gotta drive to the supermarket. people are eating a lot less fresh food, etc… its not pop or mcdonalds…they are only a small piece of the pie. ---
