Reviews
“Every company has a dark side, and you won’t believe how dark Coca-Cola’s is. After reading this book, good luck having a Coke and smile.”
[Morgan Spurlock, director of Supersize Me]

“In The Coke Machine, Michael Blanding takes a tough, unsweetened look at the business practices of this iconic American company. His investigations reveal the costs—in ethics, health, public resources, and sometimes even human life—of Coca-Cola’s relentless pressure to expand sales of its products. This book is a terrific introduction to the inner workings of corporate capitalism as it plays out on a global scale”
[Marion Nestle, author of Food Politics and What to Eat]

“Coca-Cola wants to teach the world to sing, but in the process they’ve trashed water supplies, peddled sugar to generations of kids, and undermined workers’ rights around the world. Put down your soda, read The Coke Machine, and join the global movement to rein in unaccountable corporations.”
[Barbara Ehrenreich, author of Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America]
