I have a can of DIET COKE here with the (K) on the label.  What sort
of "rabbinic supervision" is needed to make sure that a completely
artificial mixture of fake colors, flavors, and various carcinogens
is kosher?  Is water kosher?  Does the company pay for this supervision
and/or the right to put the K on the label?  And then we see the
special "Kosher for Passover" labels on the cans at certain times.
What's different about the chemical brew in that case?
