Great uses for Coca Cola

[luvdietcoke]

To clean a toilet Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet. Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous China.

To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.

It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

Coke is great for tenderizing meat too! If you mix equal parts ketchup and cola, it is great on pork chops or chicken!

Great tips, I always pour cola in my porkroast while it is cooking, gives it a great flavor and tenderizes it!

I thought Mythbusters busted most of those tips? I know they busted the toilet cleaning, corrosion and rusted bolt. The cola and ketchup sounds like a good idea though.

My husband said that the state patrol keeps it in their cars to get rid of blood on the road after car accidents

OMG, I have heard about that.

For me it is how I get my day started. Diet Coke Junkie.

It works wonders to cut grease in the laundry. My ex husband worked in the oil industry many years ago, and I purchased many products for greasy clothes. Someone told me to pour a can of Coke in with the detergent and it cut the crude oil completely. Sounds strange but it works!!

A word of caution about the terminals thing. Pour only a little bit on each terminal. As coke is acidic and has other electrolytes it will conduct electricity. Point being, if that pool of coke connects the two terminals, the car battery will short circuit and likely explode.

I knew about the battery cleaning. Thanks for the other ideas everyone.

I also have added cola to my roasts in the crock pot. I've heard that other sodas work just as well.
