This is an quite interresting fact. Probably thers is 
quite a large market turning up due to the Coke. A swedish
brewery will on Monday start to produce "XL Cola" (stupid name).
The whole idea behind it is that XL Cola is said to taste like the Old Coke.
Time will show if they'll succeed. 
Anyway, they are surely not alone with that idea. So for any
do dislikes the new Coke (actually I haven't tasted it, it has -
thank God - not come to Sweden yet) it might be a good idea
of trying any obscure local Cola-drink.
