A favorite country singer of ours — and millions of others — is Tim McGraw<\/a>. A few years ago, he recorded a song that was played often in our house and not many others, it would seem. The song is called Back When<\/em> and one of the lyrics is:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>"Back when…coke was a Coke…"<\/p>\n

Fast forward to today. On three Royal Caribbean's cruise ships — Majesty<\/a>, Freedom<\/a> and Explorer<\/a> of the Seas — a new soda concept involving Coca-Cola is being tested. Using medical micro-dosing technology and flavor cartridges, the Freestyle machines dispense 125 flavors of Coke.<\/p>\n

A HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE flavors! Who knew?<\/p>\n

The results from the machines so far have been staggering and Royal Caribbean<\/a> can't get the innovative machines on the rest of their ships fast enough.  The way it works is, for $6.50 (adults) or $4.50 (kids) a day, you buy a cup in which a chip is imbedded in the cup to provide access to the machines.<\/p>\n

To 125 flavors…and do you remember:<\/p>\n

"Back when coke was a Coke…"<\/p>\n
