The Coca-Cola Controversy about caffeine in the beverage, by Harvey Wiley, 1912
$32.05
The Coca-Cola Controversy. Good Housekeeping Magazine, September 1912, pages 386-387.
A daring ten-page essay titled “The Coca-Cola Controversy”: The Facts and Dr. Wiley’s Opinion, Together with a Talk on the Drugging of Soft Drinks. This piece, which featured both text and cartoons, openly criticized the popular beverage, warning about the dangers associated with “artificial” caffeine. This move is astonishing by today’s standards, especially considering that Coca-Cola was a vital advertiser.
