I demand this to be brought to the US immediately
I would never drink that because when I drink frozen coca cola it gives me diarrhea.

What, how does that even work.
I wonder how it does that. It might have something to do with the cap.
I stand corrected.
I like the dungeons and dragons tshirt with the hipster hat.
Also Micr0, you can do this with pretty much any drink. Mythbusters tested it.

Its a chemical reaction, ive seen a video where its done with water/.
I wish there was soda machines like that here.
The liquid is just super-cooled.
I remember a few months ago or a year back they were trying to make it so you didn't need to have it in a fridge to be able to drink it (cause warm soda tastes like shit).
I mean if we want to save on energy this would be great, since your vending machines no longer need to function as both a vending machine and a fridge, just a vending machine.
We could save millions of dollars on energy costs.
EDIT:
OK I'm wrong. My bad. Look bellow for a graph.

Except that that is not how it works. At all.
TV in the vending machine
could somebody post videos of this with other liquids? or a how to?

What are you talking about?
I'm saying that you don't need to cool it since there are chemicals inside of the bottle that freeze the coke instead of the fridge part of the vending machine.
EDIT:
Again, my bad.
My guess is it has something to do with carbonation (from flipping the bottle around) increasing the pressure in the bottle and raising the freezing point. Similar to how you can "boil" room-temperature water in a vacuum. I don't know why you couldn't do the same thing with any regular near-freezing-temperature carbonated drink.

No, it's just supercooled. The coke is kept below freezing temperature, which is somewhat lower than standard vending machine temperature. It's therefore less efficient than normal vending machines.
black magic
Why don't we have this?

Yeah. I'm almost positive it has to do with pressure. The bottle is stored at lower than the freezing point, but since the bottles are pressurized the coke will need a much lower freezing point. Therefore, it comes out liquid, but once you open it and take a swig it begins to freeze.
Motherfucker these are tasty, found one in tshim sha tsui and was the best 5hkd I ever spent

But pressure raises the freezing point since it's basically pushing the molecules together. WAIT it's the carbonation. Actually it's probably BOTH the carbonation and the pressure acting together. Carbonation lowers the freezing temperature, so it can be super cooled (i think it's the same principle as salt in water). Then when you open it you release that carbonation, raising the freezing point, AND THEN you flip it and release more carbonation to raise the freezing point even higher, and it snap freezes in bottle. So really, it's still regular coke, but cooled to a specifically calculated temperature. Still, it's neat.
[quote]You can actually do this with any soda. It just has to be at just the right temperature just below what is normally freezing. The reason it isnt frozen when it comes out is bc the soda is under pressure - if youve taken a good chem class this might make more sense. when they open the bottle the pressure is lowered and* the freezing pt is raised and can therefore freeze. Hope this sorta makes sense...[/quote]
That's what someone said in the comments.
That would be cool to see this in North America.
I don't think I've seen the word "quaff" used in a long while
Took me a second to remember what it meant
OK I stand corrected. My bad guys.
I totally understand it all now, especially when I remembered that graph thing I was taught in freshman chemistry.

It also works in the opposite direction. You can superheat water in a microwave that will explode when disturbed.
Wasn't there a mythbusters episode where they super-chilled liquids?

Too much ice cream gives me diarrhea
I don't see the awesome in this, if you want a frozen coke that doesn't taste like dirt you could just get a coke icee.

I don't get why this would taste like dirt, it's 100% normal Coke
It's the pressurs.nothing else.
