Coke Testing 100-Flavor Soda Fountains
Good news for you soda fountain lovers: Coca-Cola plans to introduce a machine that dispenses 100 flavors.
The new unit, which will reportedly have a beta launch in early 2009, will remain the same size as an eight-valve soda machine by using highly concentrated ingredients to store more beverages.
