Coca Cola ¡Y Ya!
Jun. 13th, 2002 12:29 pmI've been encouraged to post some of my memories of the time I spent in Yucatan and Central America in my youth.
The first memory I'll share: On a hot summer day, drinking hot Coca-Cola from a hot glass bottle.
I've lived in places where there was no television. I've spent time sleeping in hammocks in thatched huts. I've been to places where there was no electricity or running water.
But I've never been to anywhere so remote that it lacked Coca-Cola.
Landrovers with crates of Coca Cola would get thru to places with no schedualed mail service. When villages couldn't be reached by Landrover, by gosh the Coca-Cola got thru on the backs of burros or human porters.
If McDonalds or Starbucks are described as "ubiquitous", Coca-Cola can smuggly laugh. Coca-Cola knows about market penetration.
