In the Army, I'd use about 6L of Coke to clean the engine on my
deuce-and-a-half (2.5 ton truck) before an inspection.  Pour the Coke all
over, let it sit for about an hour, and pressure wash.  Et voila! shiny
engine!

In the early 90s, when I was attending Job Corps in Astoria, Oregon, I was
assigned work study with the local Oregon State Police office.  One of the
items that all of the troopers carried in their patrol cars was two 3L
bottles of Coke.  I was told it works great at cleaning up blood at car
accidents.  They pour it on the mess and simply rinse it off.

Interesting fact: when Coke syrup is transported, it has to have a
"corrosive" placard on the shipping container because the syrup is so
concentrated and full of phosporic acid.

Needless to say, I can't even think about drinking Coke anymore.

      Title: Maggies Coca-Cola Basted Ham
 Categories: Meats, Soda pop, Main dish
      Yield: 12 Servings
 
     10 lb Ham; *
      6 c  Coca-cola
      1 c  Brown Sugar; Dark, Packed
      1 tb Mustard; Dry
      2 tb Mustard; Prepared, Sharp
      2 c  Bread Crumbs; Fine, Dry
 
  *   Ham should be one of the precooked hams.  Not one of the specialty
      cured or canned hams.  Just the standard bone in ham in the meat
      counter.
  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.  Place ham, fat side down, in a
  shallow baking pan.  Pour coke into pan until it is 1/2-inch deep.
  Bake 2 to 3 hours, or until ham can be easily pierced with a fork,
  basting with the Coca-Cola every 15 to 20 minutes.  (Center of ham
  will read 140 degrees F on a meat thermometer when properly cooked.)
  Remove ham from the pan and cool.  Cut away rind and fat with a sharp
  knife.  Combine sugar, mustards, bread crumbs, and enough Coke to
  form a thick paste.  Place ham on roasting rack in pan and pat all
  over with the paste.  Add remaining coke to the bottom of the pan.
  Increase the temperature to 375 degrees F. and bake the ham 45
  minutes longer, basting every 20 to 15 minutes until sugar-mustard
  paste has melted to a dark glaze.  Let stand at room temperature 30
  minutes before slicing.
 
MMMMM
