Coca-Cola is halting production of its namesake soft drink in Venezuela for the foreseeable future due to a shortage of sugar. The US company says it is being forced to take the action because it has run out of the raw material. Venezuela's economy is teetering on the edge of collapse with widespread food shortages and inflation forecast to surpass 700%. Last month, Venezuela's largest food and drinks company, Empresas Polar, stopped production of beer because it was unable to obtain enough imported barley. [ link to www.foxnews.com] Oh NO not the POLAR! Worst beer I have ever had. Like a lot of 3rd world breweries they use formaldehyde, yuk. Funny thing though is the POLAR Bear on the tiny can. Sitting out on the veranda and just tossing the empties at your feet you would soon be knee deep in aluminum cans.
