Coke Celebrates Diet Coke/Mentos Geyser Eight Months late

While Joe Jaffe is all excited about having been present yesterday during Coke’s Experiment #214 at which the famed EepyBird did their Diet Coke/Mentos thing, we’re gleefully snickering at the mammoth company’s 180 on the whole thing from its “craziness with Mentos doesn’t fit our brand personality” stance to its eight-months-too-late embrace of the stunt. We’d be as excited as Joe too if we were there witnessing the event but we can’t forget that Coke is doing this because their ass was taunted and dragged into it. I’d be curious if the word Mentos was even allowed to be mentioned at the event. Joe makes no mention of it in his review of the event.

Greif and Gleason’s 1980 research on how children learn politeness routines found that young children almost never say “please” or “thank you” spontaneously, they say it because a parent prompts them with “what do you say?” dozens of times a week, meaning the reflex adults later display without thinking twice was built through years of someone else’s prompting long before it became automatic.
