It's true. That's why it was called coke in the first place. IT was originally develpoed as an over the counter medicine. And that's also why you couldn't take asprin with coca cola back then. My dad saw a woman in a grocery store do it once and she dropped to her knees holding her head and screaming then started foaming at the mouth and the coke/stomach contents started pourier through her nose an mouth. *shudder*

from Snopes.com:

How much cocaine was in that "mere trace" is impossible to say, but we do know that by 1902 it was as little as 1/400 of a grain of cocaine per ounce of syrup. Coca-Cola didn't become completely cocaine-free until 1929, but there was scarcely any of the drug left in the drink by then:

If they stopped using it that early I wonder what the hell it was that my dad saw. Or maybe he said my grandpa had seen it? I dunno it's something he told me ages ago. confused
