Watch what happens when you add coke to mentos. This is shown vividly in this video. What is shocking is the fact that our kids usually take the two together. Do watch and give your own observation and reaction. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OV_XWBCH9Y youtube.com/watch?v=ffMSVHF_x9M&feature=Responses&parent_video=vgQ9kvLGXS8&index=0 or visit this site: hight3ch.com/post/coke-mentos-coke-jet-pack -

Hello jenasise..........I really don't know why coke is manufacture at all.....I have read such dangerous things about how bad it is for our health. It is a poison, as dangerous as acid...and we are letting our children drink this acid. Fast food in itself is so unhealthy and over it children drink this coke.......what are we doing.....why the hell coke or any such injurious drinks are allowed by health centers.........I really feel very helpless as my son does not listen to me and is always drinking coke..... .

FDA has control over foods so perhaps it's blown out of proportion. Thanks and cheers.

You shouldn't believe everything you hear, I think you'll find most of it is entirely untrue. Everything that goes in to food is regulated, unless you're consuming a crazy amount you have nothing to worry about, but that's true for all food.

Weird. But the coke had to be shaken before it reacted like that, so unless you violently shook your kids up and down while they had coke and mentos in their mouth i doubt anything would happen.

Yes, perhaps, it is exaggerated. Thanks and cheers.

I have wanted to try this for the longest time but I haven't. y husband and his friends tried this in college though and it did happen. Too bad that some kids still do this despite the video circulating already.
