Question: what happens when you pour cola on bacon?

Haha! That’s interesting – you could do an experiment and try it for yourself! 🙂

I think nothing would really happen if you poured Cola onto bacon. You’d get Cola-flavoured bacon 😉 There are rumours that raw, uncooked or uncured, pork contains nasty parasites, so that if you pour Cola onto pork, the acid from the Cola makes them try to run away, and you might see lots of little worms crawling out of the meat. But that has never quite been proven true (doctors and scientists have tried to do it for themselves but never saw any worms!). Just to be on the safe side though – pork should never be eaten anything less than well done!
