No one knows exactly when or by whom flavorings and sweeteners were first added to seltzer but mixtures of wine and carbonated water became popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. By the 1830s, flavored syrups made from berries and fruit were developed, and by 1865, a supplier was advertising different seltzers flavored with pineapple, orange, lemon, apple, pear, plum, peach, apricot, grape, cherry, black cherry, strawberry, raspberry, gooseberry, pear, and melon. But perhaps the most significant innovation in the realm of soda flavoring came in 1886, when J.S. Pemberton, using a combination of kola nut from Africa and cocaine from South America, created the iconic taste of Coca-Cola. 1833: The first effervescent lemonade was sold.

The law was rejected on appeal. 2014: The relationship between SSB intake and hypertension was confirmed.
2016: Seven state legislatures, eight city governments, and the Navajo Nation issue or propose laws restricting sales, imposing taxes, and/or requiring warning labels on SSBs. 2019: In a study of 80,000 women released by the journal, Stroke, it was found that postmenopausal women who drink two or more artificially sweetened beverages per day (whether carbonated or not) were linked to an earlier risk of stroke, heart disease, and early death.

Flat Soda PopDid you know that the carbon dioxide in soda pop is under pressure? That’s why it dissolves in the water and forms bubbles. So then why does soda pop get flat? This soda pop science project will help you show what happens.Open up a new large bottle of soda pop.
Stretch the mouth of a balloon over the opening of the bottle. Every ten minutes, go back and look at the balloon, and record your observations. Eventually, you’ll find that the balloon inflates because the carbon dioxide that is dissolved in the soda pop is escaping. Try doing this project with several different types of soda pop to see which one loses carbon dioxide the most quickly. Soda Pop and BonesRead this article about the. According to the studies, the phosphoric acid in soda pop is likely the cause of bone weakening in teenage girls. If you still want to drink soda in relative safety, you can check the levels of phosphoric acid in different types of soda pop to see which sodas are least likely to impact your bones.
To do this experiment, you can use a pH meter or litmus paper to test the acidity of various types of soda pop. Remember to make a hypothesis first! Taste TestHave you heard people complain that generic bottles of soda pop just “aren’t the same' as brand name bottles? Test your friends to see if it’s really possible to taste the difference.Select one brand name soda pop, such as Coca Cola or Pepsi, as well as several generic sodas with similar flavors. Pour a bit of each type of soda pop into a different cup, and label each of the cups with a different color.
(Make sure to keep a list showing which color represents which type of soda pop.) Then have your friends taste each cup and guess which one is the name brand. Can they really tell the difference?Did you try any of these ideas at the science fair? Let us know how they worked out or suggest your own ideas in the comments!
