Coca-Cola recipe found? Georgia man says he has it
ATLANTA -- It may be the most sought-after recipe in the world: the recipe to Coca-Cola, known by very few people.
The recipe is held in a safe at the World of Coca-Cola in downtown Atlanta. But now, one Georgia man believes he may have accidentally discovered the secret formula.
Cliff Kluge is a resident of Ringgold, Georgia who loves finding and selling antiques.
"It's a treasure hunt," he says. "We go around looking for treasure.
"And apparently we may have found some."
Kluge and his wife, Arlene, recently purchased a box of letters and papers at an estate sale. One of those papers is a cola recipe from 1943.
Kluge believes it is the recipe for Coca-Cola.
"You don't stumble on things like this very often," he said. "It's a letter, and a formula, and the processes to make it. I think it's a little deeper than having fun; I think it's the recipe for Coca-Cola."
