I was in the jungle of South India once, dying for a soda. Even though it was pretty rustic and primitive, the person I was staying with produced a bottle of Coke. He told me that they call it the "nectar of the gods".
That’s a golden story ! Love it
@@TheDailyWoo Adam have you ever heard of coke being referred to as dopes?
@@TheDailyWoo there is a history channel food show series covering coke
More like nectar of death
@@Mr.Buttermaker Booooooooooooo! Sir. Just boooooooooooo!
It just dawned on me this morning while watching today's episode that Adam is our modern day Charles Kuralt, the famed CBS journalist who took the back roads to shine a spotlight on Americana with his "On the Road" segments. Love this new vision for the channel, Adam! Looking forward to continued adventures and learning more about this great land.
Yes - I remember that show - yes, I am old too - it was wonderful - and so was this episode
@@LLC273 haha that's ok Linda. I'm around Adam's age and still remember Kuralt, too. Glad we have Adam now to take us into the neat little nooks and crannies of the USA.
You make good videos but why in the %^$^& would you make a video about commie, white male hating, racist, Woke-a-Cola. You know the commies are not going to let you ride around and travel don't you. People wake the h377 up!!! Coke actually said they hate white people and want to eliminate white people and what do white people do? They keep right on drinking coke and promoting them.
@@LLC273 I also remember that show. I loved it!
That's what I like about this new phase you're in with creating content. Everyone goes to the big deal over in Atlanta but with this adventure you were able to go deep into the story and show some of the lesser known locations. Well Done Adam as usual!
When you were in Knoxville you missed another notable note. When you were taking a selfie in front of the Courthouse at 10:35, you should have noticed that there was a Texas State flag fying under the American Flag. There are 2 flags in that square. The Lone Star State Flag of Texas was designed and made in Knoxville, Georgia. Joanna Troutman, a 17 year old girl, made it as a battle flag for a group of volunteers going from Georgia to Texas to fight for the Independence of Texas from Mexico. The flag was later adopted as the State Flag. Joanna Troutman's body was moved from Crawford County, Georgia to Austin, Texas. A statue of a young woman sewing a flag is at her gravesite and a protrait of Joanna is hung in the Capitol. An Historical Marker is on the grounds of the Courthouse in Knoxville. The Courthouse is across the road from the place where Joanna lived when the flag was made.
Oh wow. What a neat piece of trivia.
Very Cool!
That would have caused a controversy in the pc world if he pointed that out. - Enjoying the videos. Learning a lot of history that I wouldn’t have been exposed to elsewhere.
@@byd3k157 I say F the PC world!
That’s cool!
Loving the longer videos and exploring around smaller towns. Feels like I am there with you :D This is the content I really like. The Pig monument was something else XD .
Thank you !
Adam you are at the top of your work. So enjoyable.

Blows my mind when a product is still so popular all this time later. Possibly the most famous product ever? Really enjoyed the history of this. Cheers Adam.
I was thinking about this and I think Coke probably is the most famous. I can't think of anything that rivals it globally, although perhaps Apple will one day.
Blows my mind why anyone would buy it.
@@Anarchist86ed Cause it taste good
@@kamalporter706 No it doesn't. It's high fructose corn syrup with artificial junk and carbonation. Kroger brand cola tastes way better. It's also a lot less racist than coke is.

Hi Adam, I'm from & live in Columbus. I'm calling the city today about that plaque that's missing at Heritage Park, once I find out I'll let you know. (Also buried here in Porterdale cemetary is the Mother of Blues, Gertrude "Ma Rainey", as well as her Landmark former home with exhibits & artifacts. Additionally, Netflix has a movie from 2020 called, "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom", featuring Viola Davis and Chadwick Bosman in his last performance before his death.) Thank you for coming to Columbus!
A follow up would be awesome. Thanks
I'd love if you told us what happened in the mysterious disappearance of the plaque.
@@alianningson3829 Ok I just got off the phone with Justin from the Columbus Historic Foundation, not the city that I thought would handle this, and Justin said the plaque was stolen and the items at Heritage Park (the statues) are going to be relocated soon as they are "Redoing Heritage park", which is going to be a 2 year project. Once that project is complete they will move these items back to Heritage Park, complete with a new plaque, albeit in all honesty I've never been to Heritage Park, its in an obscure place, to me these statues would be better elsewhere more visible to the public.
I inquired about a new Historic sign that was in really bad condition at the 2nd house and Justin said he would look into getting that one replaced. I inquired about a "mural" possibly downtown on Broadway of Dr. Pemberton, where Adam spotted and those buildings are privately owned he said and it would be up to the individual owner.
I also inquired about Dr. Pemberton's tombstone and our city is in charge of this under the Historic Linwood Foundation. I have placed a call with them and I'm waiting for a return call.
I truly believe people from all over the world & country come here to Columbus to see these historic sites of Dr. Pemberton including his gravesite and they are putting money into our economy, we should at least should have his gravesite in better condition and our city should honor Dr. Pemberton with a mural as well. I will update on his tombstone when I get the information from Linwood cemetary. Thank you for your interest.
@@GeeBee.. Good work! Hopefully something will be done about the tomb at the very least.
@@GeeBee.. Hats off to you for caring about your community , Columbus looks like a fun place to visit , interesting history about John Pemberton , I agree , the grave sight can be easily cleaned up , and I like your idea of a mural honoring the man , I worked for Coca-Cola for 12 years , that little drink has provided so many jobs , really is an amazing story , thanks for the information on Ma Rainey , I grew up in Chicago listening to the Blues , so many Blues Artists made Chicago their home , in my younger years I even met Muddy Waters and Junior Wells , hope you , and the city of Columbus are doing well , take care , Peace
I've several videos on the Coca Cola museum, but I've never seen anyone do the inventor's birthplace. This was cool! Thanks for sharing! Although Coke is my last name, I didn't like it until I was in my 20's. lol
The Rialto theater in Columbus is the world's oldest purposely built motion picture theater. A Mrs. Mamie Banks bought the Rialto property in 1903 for the purpose of building a motion picture theater. Before that, motion pictures where shown in dance halls, school auditoriums, beer halls etc. The Rialto had a separate projection booth keeping the audience away from the highly explosive nitrate film. I ran the last reel of film in the Rialto.
That is pretty fascinating. Can you still visit?
Hi Adam, thanks for all your efforts with these videos👍 and not to mention the research and planning that goes into this. Hope you get some decent rest between the editing and early starts 😊 love seeing places like this that I’ll never get to visit.
We think you should be nominated for an honorary Doctorate of History, Adam! These meandering adventures are so chock-full of information while still fun...thank you!!
I second that!
Hi Adam, like many I’m really enjoying the renewed vigor of your New Year travels, really appreciate your perspective and personality. I’ve recently been watching The Food that built America episodes on History channel and this episode really ties in. Safe travels!
I like how happy, excited and well he seems.
Absolutely love your back road state to state video's! It's like being right there with you brother. You are without question one of the best youtubers online today. Wayne from Ottawa Canada.
Very modest grave for Mr. Pemberton and his family. I guess since he only had one son who died at 40, there were no further descendants. RIP. Very thorough and interesting tour.
When you think about it, it is amazing how Coca Cola spread into every little town and every little store/ gas station in the US. They all had Coke machines.
The glass bottles used to have the city where it was manufactured. Always fun to turn over & see how far the bottle had traveled to reach you.
@@sandrap6321 I have three small Coke bottles (6 oz.) that were manufactured here in Darlington, SC. One of my parents' high school friends dad owned the company. His daughter was in high school with me.
I loved how you told the story . Visuals and narrative that really hooks the audience. Awesome work 👏!
You’re in the wrong state, but you need to do a video on the first soda: Dr Pepper. Anyway, loving these road-trip journeys and explorations.
Thank you so much for taking us with you. My brother and sister-in-law have traveled to all 50 states. Like you took back roads through small towns and documented in photos not videos. They went to Alaska on a cruise and flew to Hawaii but other than that all other states they drove through. I think the secret to longevity is to never stop learning. I am learning so much history and weird facts I did not know thank you!
The way to prevent yourself from not being able to go is to not stop going.
My late husband always asked for "coca-cola in a can" at any restaurant we went to... fancy or not. He was a grassroots guy and looked grouchy if they didn't have it. 😀 Glass bottles came a close second...
Fond memories. I will have a small can today in honour of him, Pemberton and you, Adam!! He would have enjoyed this episode. 💖
Adam if you are still in columbus good bit of history to film here. Opera house has john wilkes booth history and may still be haunted by his ghost. Naval museum is interesting. Woodruff or bradley house is now an art museum up the road from dowtown. Beautiful victorian homes in downtown one especially by the Columbus water works building on the main entrance side. Literally right next to it. Civil war Battle of columbus was fought at the 14th street bridge and riverfront. Unfortunately they tore down a historic home to build that parking garage by the 14th st brigde. They could have put the paking garage where the new indigo hotel is across the street, but no couldn't do that.
We live in Columbus as well... Yes, so much history here. Go to Dinglewood for the best Hot Dog you have ever had, Scrambled dog! Lived here my whole life!
I live here too, born & raised here. :-)
Hey Adam! This is very cool! Ive done a tour of Atlanta of the Coca Cola creation sites. Thanks for a great tour. Have a great time and stay safe!
I have been enjoying these videos a lot Adam! I can see how much you enjoy covering this kind of material! I think looking at all the unknown towns and places I have never gotten see because they are really hidden is interesting. It is cool think each of these places has a story behind it!
This was great! Coke has been a part of everyone's life for generations. It was great to see where it all started.
So let me get this straight. It had french wine, cocaine, sugar, the cola bean which has caffeine, it's sold as a medicine, yet also can be had as a fountain drink? Was he laying a foundation for four loco? Glad it has been tamed! By the way, excellent video
I have a folding metal chair that has Coca-Cola stamped in the part that when you sit in it your shoulders touch it. Rick Dale from the old t.v. show American Restoration saw it and told me that they are extremely rare and they where only given out to select people . And in all of his years of doing restorations he has only seen 4. It's got what some people call patina and is the original color for Coke which is yellow and red. I got it at a yard sale and it was the only Coke thing that the guy had and he did not know anything about it's history. Rick did not seem to happy when I told him I only paid $40.00 for it.
_"ask anyone"_ I did. They handed me a Coke.
I’ll buy it for 50
@@justdoinit2378 No thanks. I think that I'm gonna have it buried with me. lol.
@@lilorbielilorbie2496 I totally understand brother. I was just messing around with you lol. Take care my friend n stay safe.
@@justdoinit2378 As the Late Great Herbert R. Tarlek Jr. said No Problemo. Oh yeah Booogggggeeerrrr.
And "Cheers" to the Pemberton family from all of us!!!! Amazing!! Great video, Adam. Thank you!!
My Grandfather saved the bottle tops & made a wooden doll with bottle top legs, & arms that held a bowl for chips. On his head was a smaller bowl used to put dip in. He was clever, & very creative. Enjoyed learning more of the history of Coca-Cola.
How cool that you chose to check out the creator of my favorite soda on my birthday! Very awesome and informative. Thanks Mr. Woo!
Welcome to Columbus! Long time viewer here. Glad to see you in my hometown.
Great homework and presentation Mr. Woo! Thank you!
I am from Georgia. I grew up in a town in Metro Atlanta called Lilburn and went to college in Lagrange. My first tattoo was done in Columbus. Like most Georgians all soda products are called Coke. LOL! I am really enjoying this series.
Coca-Cola inventor John Pemberton is said to have written this recipe in his diary shortly before his death in 1888.[28][29] The recipe does not specify when or how the ingredients are mixed, nor the flavoring oil quantity units of measure (though it implies that the "Merchandise 7X" was mixed first). This was common in recipes at the time, as it was assumed that preparers knew the method.
Ingredients:
1 oz (28 g) caffeine citrate
3 oz (85 g) citric acid
1 US fl oz (30 ml) vanilla extract
1 US qt (946 ml) lime juice
2.5 oz (71 g) "flavoring" (i.e., "Merchandise 7X")
30 lb (14 kg) sugar
4 US fl oz (118.3 ml) fluid extract of coca leaves (flavor essence of the coca leaf)
2.5 US gal (9.5 l; 2.1 imp gal) water
caramel sufficient to give color
"Mix caffeine acid and lime juice in 1 quart boiling water add vanilla and flavoring when cool."
Flavoring (Merchandise 7X):
1 qrt alcohol
80 oil orange
40 oil cinnamon
120 oil lemon
20 oil coriander
40 oil nutmeg
40 oil neroli
"Let stand 24 hours."
Malady is a french word (used in english too) means illness! Thank you for this Coca Cola tour (still my favorite carbonated soft drink) here in Switzerland you nearly can't find any glass bottles anymore (all recycle plastic) and it tastes different in plastic than in glass for sure, i rather have glass bottles, this means i have to go into a bar or restaurant to get one.. uugh! Fun fact some people mix redwine with cola here and call it Korea but don't ask my why lol
William Bartram's dad took him to what is now Florida and Georgia when William was a little boy, before the American Revolution. They collected plant and animal specimens for an English gentleman. Among others they collected a specimen of a beautiful tree they named the Flanklinia after Benjamin Franklin.
Fifty years later he made the same journey. When he looked for the Franklinia's they were gone from the only slope where they were known to grow.
All Franklinia trees are now descended from the sample that his dad sent to London and are not found in the wild.
Not a good idea to plant some nonnative species on native land could've been how the trees died just like Apples and Oranges some northern species won't survive in the south and vice versa.
Thank you for this info. I had to look up who William Bartram was as I was not familiar with that name.
Absolutely love this format!
Thanks buddy
At the risk of aging myself further, I remember being given Coca Cola syrup for stomach ailments. I recall that syrup being thick and gross tasting. But effective.
You are living the ultimate life my friend.
Awesome video. I live in Europe and it's nice to see more of forgotten American history like this
I did a bit of research, Adam, and John Pemberton's son Charles may not have been thinking too clearly when he sold the Coke formula for a pittance. Seems he died not too long afterward in 1894 -- of an opium overdose.
Too much of a sip of his own cocaine soda.
Dude you are the best..who else would drink a coke in honor of the inventor in his birth town..and how ironic I'm a letter carrier. In my opinion you're in your element. I've watched all of your videos and when you're on the road it's addicting. I guess I'm an OG kindred spirit. Safe travels brother and watch you tomorrow
Glad you returned to the road less traveled. Very enjoyable series. Thks!
I adore you still use maps, Wooie! That so made my day. :)
I think this is one of my favorite video of yours, the ones with your Dad were special also.
Another wonderful video, Adam. Coke is my favourite pop, so this video was extremely interesting. Thanks for taking the time to do this video. Very touching at the end where you paid your respects at his grave, drinking Coke in his honour. Very nice. 👍
MAN I WANTED TO RUN ACROSS ADAM. I live in Columbus and thought maybe he will stop through town. Col had some really nice spots for Adam to explore. Love the channel
Wow! Now I know why my grandparents and family called soda tonic. To this day I call soda tonic.
Hi Adam, I’m retired living in the Midwest and enjoy your travels each day with my warm caffeinated beverage. Alcohol and cocaine no wonder coke was an effective medicine back in the day
I live in the Columbus area. I wished I would have known you were coming this way yesterday, I would have liked to have met you. Cool to see my town in your video. I did go in that Pemberton Museum back in the 90's.
I'm loving this traveling series, thank you Adam.
Yes, hope Adam stays in Georgia for a spell. Lots of ground to cover, many hidden gems to discover
Interesting info about the founder of Coke. Never knew how it came about. Also, enjoyed seeing the city of Columbus and learning about its history. Thank you for sharing. 👍
Cool piece of history, thanks for sharing
!
Two Thumbz 👍👍
I've very glad you got the facts right (Macon Native here) over what Atlanta loves to say, I grew up in Macon and went to college in Columbus so my life is full of the forgotten history of GA. It's a lot of interesting fun. Great video! Thank you!
R.I.P John S. Pemberton.... Thanks for making the world a sweeter place!
The coke in glass bottles is made in Mexico. Taste better because they use cane sugar.
@Dapper Canuck I don't mean to be argumentative but I just bought some Mexican Coke and it says it has cane sugar right on the label.
Also, not all Coke in glass bottles come from Mexico. We bottle some Coke in glass bottles here in Canada too.
Thanks for honoring our favorite son!
Love the video- we do have an old mural though, that has been restored I believe, over on the old bottling plant- also an old NEHI mural that is still here! Stay around town, SO MUCH HISTORY here!!
Well- not a mural on the plant, but restored original Coca-Cola logo/lettering and graphics-
I am loving this video. I am only half way thru but i wanted to let you know how much i am enjoying this content. Love you woo!
Much appreciated thank you Kat
That was so interesting about the background of Coca-Cola, and its founder. I looked up once why Coke tastes differently in other countries, and it does. I recall reading that the key ingredients are the same, but the water, sweetners, and carbonation often differ, which affects the taste, a bit. I'm loving this roadtrip, Adam, and I'm a Coke fan. Have a nice day.
🤠👏🌟
It's always fun to get a chance to go to one of those fountains where they let you try Coke from different countries. You can really taste the difference.
Hey Adam. Be careful with your travels today. If you're going through Tennessee they're to get snow starting 7am central time. Please be cautious ⚠️
Not heading into Tennessee yet . Good looking out !
Another great video. Loved every minute. It brought back my memory of some years ago I was friends and lived next door to a Pepsi Co. programmer. He would tweak the formula for their different soda products and bring them to us to test to see if we could tell the difference. Super sweet smart guy.
I grew up in Columbus, glad to see the attention it got in this video!
Excellent educational video.
This is awesome. Thank you Adam and happy new year!
GREAT JOB 👏 Adam! Thank You so much for the informative, entertaining back roads adventure with Dr. John Pemberton! I decided to post about this episode on Facebook today! Cheers from Old Highway 66!
OMG YOU WERE IN MY HOMETOWN?? You were 5 minutes from me?! That's so cool! Great to see Columbus being shown off a bit!
I'm enjoying this fun journey! So much fun, thanks Adam!
Thanks Adam! That was a great history lesson! I'm so enjoying your road trip! Take care and see you tomorrow!❤
Excellent! I really enjoyed this walk through history.
Not to give a spoiler, I hope but a trip worth taking would be to the first licensed bottler of Coca Cola in Vicksburg Mississippi at the Biedenharn candy company. The candy store it still there as a museum. My son and I have visited there a few times while geocaching on road trips.
My current favorite channel.
Great video. Really enjoy the historical refresher!! Drive safe!
Cool bit of history. Thank you Adam and those below who added a little more history to the vlog!
It used to be made with real cane sugar. But in US only it has manmade fructose corn syrup in it. Mexico has the original cane sugar version which some restaurants have in the US but its called Mexican coke.
Absolutely love the videos of small town and perhaps some forgotten American towns. Keep up the good work please.
You was in my hometown Columbus GA. I'm a long time watcher of your videos since your early days. I would love to meet you and thank you one day.
Thank you for this awesome series Adam I look forward to them every morning
I enjoyed this video. Pepsi-Cola was born here in New Bern North Carolina
Always love hearing your family stories.
Nicely done! Enjoying your style and content! Stay safe! Peace ☮️
Love your program its so interesting. Thank you for your traveling experience.
I just want to say thank-you for going back to showing videos of small town America and telling its history. I love America’s history and small towns. It’s fun to hear the history and the story of the man that created Coca-Cola. Safe travels
Bravo! A great historical piece. I really enjoyed it. Good job!
I was hoping that you would go to Columbus. There is so much history there. Really love the videos.
I baked our Christmas ham in Coca Cola this year....it was the most delicious ham we have ever tasted! Nice story, thanks for sharing~
I love the coca cola in the bottles. So good 🕶 Morning Woo, Awesome tribute.
I’m a new subscriber and I love your videos. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Happy New Year. Good to see you again. Excellent Vlog. Wonderful History lesson. Looking forward to more travel videos.
I love this chill Adam, hanging out in small Americana. Welcome to Middle Georgia!
So exited you are covering the history of coca cola! Hope you include the museum in Atlanta!
One of the best video you have made. Good job Mr The Woo.
Thank you TDW for all your hard work researching all this in the traveling 👏👍
I absolutely love your videos! The way you talk and your awesome knowledge of the history of your videos is bar none. Love how you keep us, the viewers, seem like we are taking the roadtrips with you. Keep up the great work Adam!
Ok this was an incredible Vlog! Totally enjoyed this! You really followed this completely through! Super interesting! Thank u!
Hey Adam, when you come to NC I recommend a few places. They may seems touristy, and I know you're avoiding that right now, but I'd say they are still "off the beaten path" in a lot of ways.
1) Aloha Safari Zoo in Cameron, NC. This private zoo is in the middle of nowhere and was started when the owner "won" a monkey at a horse show and didn't know what to do with it. The owner is a great guy who would probably tell you all about it.
2) Sylvan Heights Bird Park in Scotland Neck. This is affiliated with the NC Zoo so it's a little more formal, but it's still in the middle of nowhere. I believe it's still the world's largest collection of waterfowl.
3) The outer banks. Hear me out. I know these are really touristy in the summer, but in the winter, Ocracoke Island is quiet and nearly everything is closed. It's a whole different place in the winter--much more small town feel. Most of these beach communities have very few permanent residents. To get to Ocracoke you need a ferry reservation if you're coming from the south end.
I'm enjoying the series!
Outstanding video! I loved the history of Coca-Cola.
Thanks for the history. Truly enjoyed it very much.
Adam!! OH We are so glad you came to Columbus!! Yes, so much history here. Go to Dinglewood for the best Hot Dog you have ever had, Scrambled dog! The INfantry Museum on Ft Benning. We are the home of AFLAC. Lots of movies filmed here including Tank and The Green Berets as well as We Were Soldiers.. So many. Callaway Gardens, yes the iconic golf name, is just up the road and the Callaway mansion is in Lagrange. Lived here my whole life! We would still love to take you to dinner and dont forget... You are Fearfully and Wonderfully made my friend!
Adam Thank You Very informative. stay safe and healthy.
“ add in a little bit of grandmas cough medicine “ 😂
You did a great job on this blog.
