Yellow Coke caps mean the Coke is kosher and can be drank during the Passover and God won't be angry at you



teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Seems kinda pointless - God's gonna always find something to get angry about.

There is an Orthodox Jew who does short videos about her life (married, expecting kid four or five, nurse by trade).  I recently learned about the yellow caps through her.

But, man oh man, the rules...the endless rules they are expected to follow.

Seems to me that this god is far to picky, he needs to get out more and relax!
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Poor, poor, pitiful godiboi, even with the massive expanse of all of time and space, it chooses that tiny closet.

I looked into it.
It says that Coca-Cola contains glycerol.
The glycerol is made from beef tallow normally (saponification reaction). Also, the glycerol is present as 1 part in 1000, which is acceptable for jewish law.
The jewish god has said that the presence must be under 1 part in 60.
For passover, the jewish god can’t tolerate the beef tallow.
So Coca-Cola makes glycerol from cottonseed oil or coconut oil (saponification reaction) for the passover version of Coke.


To make High fructose corn syrup, they use corn and they use an enzyme. I think they often use Xylose isomerase as the enzyme
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylose_isomerase

The enzyme converts some or most of the glucose into fructose which has a higher sugar flavor compared to glucose.
So, Coca-Cola can put less sugar and reduce the price.
For passover, the jewish god is worried that since corn is used, some of the glucose is converted to ethanol and that the person would get drunk.
For passover, Coca-Cola extracts sucrose from the cane plant or the beet plant and they don’t convert the sucrose.

Ridiculous. The 'normal' human digestive tract makes approximately 2oz of ETOH a day, even on a kosher diet.  Sucrose breaks down into glucose and fructose, look at the metabolic pathway, they all end up producing ETOH.

Sounds to me like Coke has found a way to make money, again.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

Abrahamism, the grift that keeps on giving.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
