Well, that's a better use for than using it to douche with. I understand that Coke was used by women to douche in the 40s. Eeeooowwww!
Just don't stand in the field when the cropduster unloads the bottles....
Coke has plenty of other uses. It's a GREAT glass cleaner. (I know, it defies logic since you'd think the sugar would leave the glass sticky, but it doesn't.) I've also heard a lot of policemen keep a cache in the trunk because it does a great job of cleaning blood off asphalt.

I believe it is the caffeine. It's a natural pesticide.
(you'll never see fire ants in the coffee grounds.. :^)
Kool-Aid works pretty good on RATS, so far today.
Probably the sodium in it too.....
Want to get rid of coons...pour some 7-up in a ceramic bowl, add some fly bait. The stuff stinks so bad that you don't want to mix it in the house. Coons love it and will make it at the most maybe 25 feet away. Don't know what exactly does it, but the coons drop like flies. Knew an old farmer that kept the coon population down in his haymow with this concoction.
Works great!

COKE...
1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the truck to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of coke and it will be gone in two days.
3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
For Your Info
1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase in osteoporosis.
2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards reserved for Highly corrosive materials.
3. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years! Now the question is, would you like a glass of water or Coke

On #7, also sprinkle that ham with brown sugar.
Speaking of cooking meat, I make the world's best ribeye. Worked on the prep-juice and methodology for over twenty years. Seriously thinking about marketing it.

I ran out of ant spray one time, tried Windex. It worked.
