References: The other day I had the occasion to start drinking a cold Coke Classic, and then finish it 5 hours later, warm. To my surprise, when warm, it tasted like New Coke. This seems to imply that the difference between the two is a flavor in Coke Classic that comes out only when it is cold. Does anyone have any old Coke around? Did it have the same property? -- Ken Turkowski @ CADLINC, Menlo Park, CA UUCP: {amd,decwrl,hplabs,nsc,seismo,spar}!turtlevax!ken ARPA: turtlevax!ken@DECWRL.ARPA

This doesn't surprise me. Since New Coke is flat, I would expect any cola, be it Coke Classic, Old Coke, or Pepsi, to taste like New Coke after 5 hours when all the carbonation is gone.
