'snopes.com: Coca-Cola Acids' (http://www.snopes.com/cokelore/acid.asp)

The 2 to 3 tenths of 1 percent phosphoric acid quoted in that Snopes web
page is what's in the syrup, not in the soft drink.


....and it gets taken out of the syrup before it goes in the soft
drink? Did you actually think about what you wrote? (I know,
impossible)

Assuming a mix ratio of 5:1, one gallon of syrup will make 6 gallons of
soft drink.

That results in a concentration of phosphoric acid in the soft drink of
about 5 one hundredths of one percent.

Coca Cola can hardly be used as a substitute for phosphoric acid because
it supposedly "contains phosphoric acid".

That fact is that you are *WRONG*. You can admit it now.
