Secret Formula of Coca-Cola | National Geographic 

*4K Thumbnail*

If Thanos drank this he’d be collecting the kidney stones.

It still remains a secret but Ronaldo doesn't like this secret.

Few days back Christiano Ronaldo unveiled Coco's formula

I imagine Oompa Loompas dancing and a flowing Coca-Cola river

Let's admit, We all know secret ingredient is cocaine

Plot twist: The *secret ingredient is* filtered sewage

Plot Twist: Nobody wants to know the secret. Drink water and add some more years to your life.

It’s only sort-of secret. The real power of the “secret formula” is a branding issue. It’s like McDonald’s secret sauce on their Big Mac. It exists primarily in the realm of advertising. Any decent group of chemists could figure out the formula for Coca Cola in a pretty short period of time. But that really won’t do them any good. Even if Joe’s Cola perfectly duplicates the Coke recipe, they still don’t have the iconic red can, the Coke name, the history, or the nostalgic attachment that Coca Cola has. By insisting that the recipe is a trade secret (and doing ridiculous little things like keeping a hand-written copy in a secure vault, where only the CEO has access), Coke creates a mystique around the product that helps promote a certain image in the minds of customers. In reality, every manufacturing center producing Coca Cola has computerized records of the exact formula. They have to have the recipe to actually make it, after all. Back in the 80s, maybe the early 90s, there was actually a Coke employee who stole the recipe and tried to sell it to Pepsi (apparently believing the “Cola Wars” were more cutthroat than they actually were). He asked for several million dollars for the secret. Pepsi called the cops and the guy was arrested. You know what Pepsi did with the formula? They gave it back. They don’t need to know what Coke’s secret formula is. They already have it. But there’s not really much of a market for something that tastes like Coke but comes in a Pepsi can. Oh, and the Big Mac’s secret sauce? You can find out what that is on RU-vid. Any chef can taste it and tell you exactly what is in it. There’s a burger place near my house that has their own version of a Big Mac, just bigger and more expensive. But knowing the recipe doesn’t give you the happy clown guy and the billions of dollars of marketing power.

Secret recipe: hello I’m Diabetes 2.

Ronaldo moves the coca cola bottles aside and YT algorithm moving the 10 year old video infront of every user. 😂

These “natural flavors” should be fully disclosed. There shouldn’t be any vague substances added to food sold for human consumption

If aliens were to ever show up, they should be given a coke first.

10 yrs later this video arrived on the shores of my youtube recommendation...

Waitress;"Would you like your Coke in a can or in a glass.?" Customer;"In a bag."

I love how everyone decided to drink cola regardless what was in.

The quality of the images are stunning even it filmed 10 years ago, kudo's to all who made it.

doesn't matter, we need the secret formula of krabby patty

The 8 K thumbnail was so convincing that I couldn’t stop myself from clicking it

Thank you! Nice tutorial. Will try it out next week.

There's nothing secret it's just a marketing ninja technique

Can we talk about how good the video quality is for 10 years old? Also the fact we are getting this recommended after 10 years?

"The Coca-Cola Company doesn't only sell Coke, it has around 4,000 different drinks across 500 brands. In fact, Coca-Cola makes so many products, if you tried one product from its portfolio every day, it would take you just under 11 years to try them all."

Coke: doesn't discloses it's secret Ronaldo: And I took that personally!

Battery acid, cherry, a drop of moisture squeezed out of day old bread, lime, and a touch of that dark liquid pooling under your kitchen sink. That's the secret recipe... or maybe that's just what it tastes like.

coca-cola doesn’t taste the same in diff countries.

I can't go a day without it I am literally addicted.

The Master from Kung fu panda movie says "There's no secret recipe."

I actually searched for this

Natural flavors. Coca Leaf without the stimulant, Kola nut, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, vanilla.

Plot twist: Ronald is taking his revenge cuz they didn't tell him the secret .

Honestly, seeing the fried thumbnail, at first I thought he was dipping a cigarette in it.

“We operate in over 206 countries” Countries in the world: 195

Why did RU-vid decide to put this in our recommended 9 years later

i think we need more people like Cristiano Ronaldo to stood against these Hazardous beverages

Coca-Cola says only two people alive know the Coca-Cola 'recipe', and they aren't allowed to travel on the same plane in case it crashes. I wonder if this is true

Why does the thumbnail look like as if it was made in a 19’s calculator ?😂

Don't let this take away the fact that Coca-Cola had actual cocaine in it during the early times.

Ridiculous amounts of sugar is their secret recipe.

Le Ronaldo* - Hold my water bottle.

I love how the concentrate has the caustic warning placard.

Video was uploaded on youtube when i was 13 so now after 10 years youtube wants me to watch this video at the age of 23 wow. Thanks youtube

who is watching this after ronaldo said no to coca cola

Just like KFC and Marlboro cigarettes, Cola also is a closely guarded secret.

“Vegetables or things like that” I’m sure lol

In 2075 when they finally see the recipe. They open the envelope and it's reads "You've been coconut mall' d"

I watched this video 2 hrs ago now I realised why RU-vid recommended me this That's why I am commenting

So they can reverse engineering a UFO but not a coca-cola bottle.

Even that VP of Science person also controling his laugh when they ask him about what's natural in Coca-Cola..

Reminds me of Plankton's obsession in finding out the krabby Patty's secret formula

10 years ago you all could do nothing RONALDO JUST MOVED THE BOTTLES, AND COCA COLA LOST 4 BILLION DOLLARS

How many dollars did you guys get to advertise this poison as if it were a safe drink, @NatGeo?

coke made with sugar tastes better than a coke with fructose.

I still can't believe I used to drink that stuff. One of my best decisions to stop - lost about 5 pounds! :D

I love their Christmas Commercials with Santa!!!!

I remember watching this on TV in my childhood ☺️....

Why thumbnail look like it's been taken with a calculator

Just FWI “Natural flavors” does NOT mean it was extracted from a plant etc.. It can be 100% industrially synthesized. It just means it’s the same chemical compound found in nature.

So this is how POISON is made…I’m so happy I’m in the 1% (0:34)

Thumbnail looks like a cigarette on the Coke glass, that made me click.

"those are things which have come from nature, many different things, vegetables and stuff like that" - sounds professional.

I’m drinking an ice cold coke and watching this. Tasty

Drink water for a better health.Quit drinking any type of soda

wonderful I always liked coca cola a lot now I'm fascinated with it

I wonder if they tell you that coca cola has 250 grams of sugar in it, while a person's daily sugar intake should be 25 grams

Let's admit that we got it recommended after 9 years Edit: thanks for 84 likes. For the first time I have received so many likes!!

Coca cola: exists Ronaldo:I am about to destroy this man's whole career

I drunk coke to this video in 2023 from New Zealand! Tastes so good!

the secret krabby kola formula

Who's here after Ronaldo pick water over coke? 😂

This is actually like the Krabby patty formula! 😂 I guess we have to find a plankton to find the formula out

*Quickly scan comments section for clever jokes about cocaine* *close video*

Who just recently got this recommended to you and is finally watching it now?

Cristiano Ronaldo: I am about to end this man's whole career

awesome video! very informative

Dear all, we're gathered here today by the algorithm after 10 years! Hope yall are doing well!

who else got this in their recommended all of a sudden?

It would be easier for us to discover KFC's 11 secret herbs and spices than getting Coca-Cola's secret formula. ❤ Coke forever.

a lot of plant extracts (oils , flavors , sugars , fats , fragrances) from South America . and mixed using a secret process adding coffee , liquor , water and sugar . then carbonate the drink . whoever found this is a pure genius

The secret formula is probably a lot of cokecaine

*Not gonna lie, when the bottles where traveling to the spot, it looked like a rollercoaster.*

Ronaldo disses Coke's bottles at Euro 2020. RU-vid Algorithm: It's TIME! Release the hounds!

Why RU-vid recommending me this after 9 years

The Secret Coke Formula : orange oil, lemon oil, nutmeg oil, coriander, neroli and cinnamon.

Don’t want to die without knowing that secret ingredient which I kept on consuming through out my life .

See you again after 10 yrs when this gets recommended again to everyone.

Imagine poison in a can or bottle. People don't understand the consequences of products,

Thank god youtube recommended this video

*Coca-Cola: "NEVER ever, ever AGAIN !"* *Gillette: "NEVER ever, ever AGAIN !"*
