I'm from India,and we too got coke,pepsi,fanta and a host of other soft driks,all they do is nothing but make money.Moreover they donot meet the international standards,Recently it was found that coke had pesticides cotent in it than the permissible level.So i think it's better to take coke& and its companions off the stands and instead promote natural drinks like "Tender Coconut water", other fruit juices etc...

It is indeed not needed, softdrinks or colas are classified as junk foods and our body doesn't need it, instead it adds wastes into our body. Here, we usually drink fruit juices and coconut water or "buko juice" we rarely have softdrinks inside our refrigerator.

No they probably are damaging and not needed but millions of people all round the world buy them all the time - I have to admit I love coke and pepsi - I think they are ok if you drink in moderation!!
