^apparently, dis guy really liked Coca-Cola and liked it so much he commissioned special clear fountain drinks in clear straight bottles be made for hims as opposed to the dark soda in the classic Coke bottle shape. Circumventing the Soviet ban on the drink as a symbol of capitalist America. He was able to achieve this through a series of contacts and associates namely all American or at least foreign born American citizens. What do you guys think?

Also, this decades before crystal Pepsi too. It was specially engineered at the time to be clear mimicking the appearance of vodka and so on. The late General didn't want to be viewed drinking the dark cola in public.

I bet this is why Stalin moved against Zhukov, he was like "you know what else was white? THE WHITE ARMY." And then Zhukov cried himself to sleep clutching an empty white coca cola bottle, vowing revenge.

I don't think anyone has much they can add about this subject beyond the silliness of a Soviet war hero having a "coke" habit.

Castro was also a heavy Cola drinker from what I recall.

Coca Cola is delicious, no matter your ideology.

The Soviet ban on Coke is of course silly, so really the only part I find funny is the enormous amount of effort required to keep his favorite soft drink a secret.
