Does Coke and Pepsi contain alcohol ?

Guys, please read well: "Daily Fail reported yesterday"

strange that QDC had no clue that this drinks containing alcohol were being sold at the local supermarkets without a permit or is it that alcohol has now become freely available out here

Alright, Alright .. Its not Haram... Go enjoy it

But don't come back asking another stupid question

Food and drinks in general are therefore "haram".

rice have alcohol too, so does almost all grain and beans, ..... : )

lol

Pepsi has seem to have admitted that the oils used in making Pepsi do contain trace amounts of alcohol. However, Coca Cola seems to refuse to give a direct answer as to weather their natural products do contain trace amounts of alcohol, and in turn claims that their products contain "no added alcohol" as required by the law.

people..everything that is too much is bad....just enjoy drinking...u all have point here....ok let's cheers to that..LOL

These kind of baseless report has a malicious agenda, they want people to stop drinking popular fizzy drinks and want people to drink their version branded products . Another research should be whether people get high or not, and the answer is no.If that is the case, then should they cull all the lizards,there are some desperate people who sniff burnt lizard tails to get a high, and some people sniff xerox toners too.....

You are putting poison like Coke and Pepsi into your body and are concerned about the traces of alcohol it may contain? You are joking, right?

And btw, IF one is addicted to this crap, it is the massive amount of refined sugar and chemicals that gets one addicted.FYI.

I want pure alcohol. I don't care about pepsi.

Coffee with cognac taste good.

As long as you let the alcohol get to your stomach and not to your head, you'll be fine.

better to drink coffee than alcohol....(soda)joke...lol coffee

Now I know why...

lol flower

nomad i didn't got drunk just by drinking soda....but in alcohol yes i did...guilty again heheheh..!

What do you mean you didn't get drunk? Have you been drunk before?

well said Pirate...the enzymes helps the fermentation...anyway i love to drink soft drinks...guilty to be addict!but i don't get drunk hehehe!

... and if you have a real sweet (sugar) orange juice, it will work even better, because the bacteria use the sugar as energy source.

brit, it's not me who put the bacteria in the fruit. They are there if you like it or not, and they do their job of fermenting.

In those times the knowledge on chemicals was limited. :)

hankyou. the key here is "expected levels" and the definition of an alocoholic beverage.

let's not make a Michelob out of a Moussy :O)

... because non-alcoholic beer also has alcohol, but it is at accepted levels.

Natural (!) juice ferments through contact with oxygen. It is well-known that such (fresh) orange juice has about 0.5% alcohol. This happens with almost all fruits more or less. A report published by Indiana University says, a standard glass of orange juice contains between .2% and .5% alcohol. Six glasses of orange juice could theoretically create the same culpability in a minor as six bottles of non-alcoholic beer.

LP is it alcohol or acid ?

The alcohol group of molecules are present in many, many things. But it I would expect people on here to know the difference between ethanol, butanol or even octanol...... Just need to know did God ban all of the chemicals or just one?

Well it might explain some of the poorer drivers in the region.

Ban the orange juice!

Orange juice has 0.45% alcohol, too.

My coke does cos only drink it if it has vodka in it! :)

Ban them!

YOU WISH, HOW STUPID TO PUT A COMMENT LIKE THAT

Yes.. Haram !!!

I believe in this...Because people get really addicted to this stuff

It may contain something more serious than alcohol
