"The Cola Wars" by Steve Adams

from Tea With George · host George Caylor, Diane Gruber, Steve Putney

"The Cola Wars" by Steve AdamsIn the late 1800’s, two pharmacists, John Pemberton and Caleb Bradham, invented competing Cola products.  The Cola Wars have been raging ever since.  As a boy growing up in rural America, none of that mattered to me.  We so rarely had soft drinks that I could never tell one from the other, much less have a preference.When I was about 10, my dad held a large community event that lasted all day and well into the evening.  The church provided the food which consisted of hot dogs, hamburgers, fried country ham and all manner of baked goods.When the hot, sweaty day came to an end and we were cleaning up, the ladies at the food booth had plenty of left overs and I was offered TWO HUGE MASSIVE TWO LITER BOTTLES of a blue labeled soft drink.  I could not believe my sheer luck and proceeded to stash them someplace where my sisters would not find them.  In that moment, the cola wars were over for me and I still prefer that brand over the other. Sponsored by The Caylor Group.Support the show#Political/Conservative/Judeo/Christian/Constitutional
