Joe Rogan is widely known for saying stuff that has absolutely no basis in scientific fact that he’s pretty much just made up on the spot and here he is again, doing exactly that.

Rogan was speaking to Megadeth singer and guitarist Dave Mustaine when he made the claim, saying the following:
@cannabritsedutainment😲💉
New Coke, the Coke that you have right now; not new Coke, the flavour. But the Coke that’s available in 2022 – is made with cocaine. They process cocaine. They take out all the cocaine and that’s part of the flavour of the Coke formula. This is like fact.
It sounds like conspiracy theory. It sounds like conspiracy theory. But if you find the company in this country, that processes the most medical, [and] pharmaceutical cocaine, is the same company that supplies Coca Cola, it’s fact.
Yeah Joe, that’s right, it’s a fact. That’s why Coca Cola released the following statement as a response to the show saying the following:
No. Coca‑Cola does not contain cocaine or any other harmful substance, and cocaine has never been an added ingredient in Coca‑Cola.
Lol. In fairness I have heard a story that back in the day when Coca Cola first started they used to put cocaine in it, but I’m fairly sure that this hasn’t been the practice for quite some time now.
Weirdly, Joe Rogan even seemed to backtrack about it later on in his podcast, saying that Coca Cola today doesn’t have cocaine in it, just the original Coca Cola. That makes the whole situation even more confusing because he 100% does not say that in his original statement, in fact he says the exact opposite. Classic Joe Rogan I suppose.
