A little concerned about the article below.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2165422/Coke-Pepsi-contain-tiny-traces-alcohol-reveals-French-research.html

Many of us (including me) have enjoyed coke/pepsi etc....... but now i am furious about the findings in the above post.!!!

your views please..

This is a very interesting issue....whilst it is in minute quantities, we have the right to know and it should say it on the can/bottle.

[bouncersingh]

i totally agree, regardless of amount found in it, the point is, that it contains alcohol.

[Mehtab Singh]

More than that amount is in regular cough syrups or pain killers. However, these drinks should still be avoided.

Omg, dude chill... this is nothing special almost evverything we take to ourself like bana( a banana can develope till 0,6 alcohol( we all eat sweet banas so..)) etc contains alcohol - these are so called OH groups.. Even sugar contains them... I don´t know why all this hype about this.. Someone who has little knowledge about chemistry would know this.. You know alcohol is a hypernym in chemistry..

Everybody calm down. Alcohol is a chemical compound that contains an OH (hydroxyl) group. The type of alcohol that is in beers and stuff is called ethanol.

There are many alcohols. Butanol, methanol, etc.

Alcohol is present in all foods we eat in the form of an amino acid, which contains the hydroxyl group. This is basic chemistry.

In the article, it says nothing about what kind of alcohol is in the coke. Anyway, you should be much more concerned about the amount of sugar in coke and pepsi, since that is much more harmful than whatever minute traces of alcohol they found
