What?! I've never heard of this. I ... What? Like how much sugar? And how does drinking cola with even more sugar calm ones stomach?

I've never heard of this either. If you call it "flat coke", I would just assume it had been left opened too long and lost its bubbles.

YES I KNOW OF THIS. I had it as a kid too. Although often without the sugar and just flat. And some friends had mums who put a pinch of salt in.

I WOULD KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

I'm familiar with drinking coke that has gone flat to help a tummyache... however the thought of adding sugar to it kind of makes me want to puke. I would just shake or stir the fizz out of it first.

My mom always made us flat cokes by, uhh, opening a can of coke and letting it go flat. Really! No sarcasm!

A sweetened coke makes me feel a little nauseous just thinking about it.
