Coca-Cola produces as much as $2BN of pure COCAINE every year in New Jersey factory.

A small chemical processing plant hidden in a quiet neighborhood of New Jersey has an exclusive license to import coca leaves into the US on behalf of The Coca-Cola Company and manufactures as much as $2 billion of pure cocaine every year.
The leaves are used to produce a 'decocainized' ingredient for the iconic soda and the cocaine byproduct is sold to the nation's largest opioid manufacturer, which markets the powder as a numbing agent and topical anesthetic for dentists.
The unassuming facility in Maywood has been processing coca leaves for Coca-Cola for over 100 years and is now run by a chemical manufacturer called Stepan Company.
It operates under special licenses issued to it by the DEA and is the only company in the US permitted to import coca leaves and manufacture cocaine.
And just this year, on January 30, Stepan successfully renewed its petition for permission to continue importing the controlled substance into the US.
The DEA did not respond to a request from DailyMail.com for details as to how much coca the company imports, but in the 1980s it was was reported that more than 500 metric tons of leaves could enter the plant in a single year.
Five hundred tons of leaves might produce something in the region of two million grams of cocaine - which, according to pharmaceutical company listings online, could be worth around $2 billion.

I’m sure everything’s going aboveboard at the facility. No laws being broken.

It'll be Fenta-cola before long.

You think a facility selling $2bn is just skating by the fda, osha, and the state department of health? On the other hand it’s just sweetened phosphoric acid with caffeine

I knew there was medical grade cocaine but I never thought about where it was made.

They should be allowed to sell it commercially. The public should be allowed to buy a small amount of American processed high grade powder every year.
Nope, the government would rather its citizens be forced to roll the dice for some Mexican and ghetto processed crap that might be contaminated with deadly fentanyl.

Sounds like the story line on Ozark.

If you go to the Coca-Cola museum in Atlanta, they talk about this, but they really minimize the fact that the original Coke really was an addictive drink.

Remember kids: Alcoholism is encouraged and pill addiction is government funded and cocaine is basically a human right and heroin addiction is ok if you get free needles and narcan and the border is flooded with Fentanyl and it’s your human innate right to mutilate your genitalia but if you so much as touch cannabis the federal government will come after you and your whole family.

Coke used to be addictive.
It still is, but it used to be too.

I’d be ok with Coca-Cola selling this by-product itself for profit. Better than the fentanyl shite that gets you laid up in crack houses with hookers in north Baton Rouge dead and then wrapped up In a rug off scenic hwy at an abandoned funeral home and your last known whereabouts alive are with a man named stanka…… but that’s just me.
