you could buy sugar-sweetened Coke at Passover. Now I have to go to a Mexican restaurant for the real stuff.

And no, I don't drink a lot of it, mostly for an upset stomach. But sugared Coke is a whole other, delicious, animal from corn syrup Coke. I don't care why they're changing it. I'm glad.

When I was little, the only time I was allowed to cross Washington St. (it was busy) was once in a while in the summer when my mother was ironing in the kitchen and gave me a dime to go to the gas station across Washington St. and buy a Coke out of the machine. I was rewarded with maybe 2 ounces in a juice glass.
