Man Keeps 10,000 Different Cans of Coca Cola In His Garage!


Think your recycling's got out of hand? Then spare a thought for collector Davide Andreani, who has stacked up the world's biggest collection of different Coca Cola cans. The sweet-toothed Italian has more than 10,000 cans, and has been seeking out unusual designs for the global soft drink since he was a child.
His collection includes designs from almost every country - except Cuba and North Korea where the drink is not sold.

Mr Andreani, 39, even has editions never sold to the general public, including one created in Milton Keynes in 1986 for the opening of 'the world's fastest soft drink canning line' which produced 2,000 per minute. When it comes to commitment, can collectors truly are the Real Thing, as the classic slogan goes. When one of them sells a can he no longer needs, it can fetch up to £500. Mr Andreani, from Pesaro, Italy, said: 'I started to love collecting them when I was young.

Coca-Cola Formula: Found at Estate Sale, Yours For Just $15 Million? [Video Within]


The original Coca-Cola recipe, dated 1943, has allegedly been found ... by a Georgia man who's auctioning it off and asking for eight figures in return. Cliff Kluge claims he got the original Coke formula from a box of papers he purchased at an estate sale. It's on eBay for $5 million (Buy It Now for $15M)!
The authenticity of the formula has not been confirmed:

"You don't stumble on things like this very often," he said. "It's a letter, and a formula, and the processes to make it. I think it's a little deeper than having fun"
"I think it's the original recipe for Coca-Cola." Coca-Cola begs to differ.
