"We bought 2L Coke yesterday from the Tuckshop. I opened it and realised that it didn't make the "tshhhhh" sound when you open a cold drink. Even after shaking it, there were no acid bubbles, nothing. I took it back, and he gave me another one. This one made the "tshhhhh", but now it tasted like water mixed with Coke."
