Remember in the Michael J. Fox movie Doc Hollywood when the old country doctor tells him that you can pretty much cure anything with a can of Coca-Cola? He was partially right. Since the first glass was poured in 1886, people have enjoyed it as a beverage as well as finding other unofficial uses as well. The jingle was right; things really do go better with Coca-Cola. Here are some of our favorite uses for Coca-Cola.
记得在迈克·J·福克斯的电影《好莱坞纪录片》中一位年长的乡村医生告诉他一罐可乐可以医好你的任何病。他说的部分是正确的。自从1886年第一杯可乐出现后，人们就喜欢上了它，无论是用作饮品还是另做它用。顺口溜说的好;

Compost Helper
堆肥助手
A flat bottle of Coke can come in handy if you're into composting. Simply pour the soda over the pile. Coke's mildly acidic nature will help break down organic matter, while its sweetness helps attract micro-organisms that aid in the composting process.
如果你想要堆肥的话，可以很方便地使用一瓶可乐。简单地把苏打水倒在堆肥上面。可乐的温和的酸性会帮助分解有机物质，它的甜味会帮助吸引微生物加速堆肥过程。
Kitchen Cleaner
厨房的清洁剂
If your kitchen counters, stove or microwave get a little greasy after a marathon cooking session take out the coke can. Pour a little bit of the soda onto a sponge and wipe the counter down. Coke acts like a degreaser. Just make sure you wipe the counter down a second time with water; this way the counter will not be sticky.
如果你的厨房的台子，炉子或微波炉经过一段时间的做饭后有了油渍。往海绵上倒一点可乐，擦抹台子。可乐就是去油剂哦。第二次要用水再擦台子一遍；用此办法，台面就不会再粘手了。
Insect Distractor
昆虫干扰剂
We all know that bugs go crazy for sweet things -- let's use that knowledge to our advantage. If you're having a barbeque, leave a small cup of coke on the ground a few feet away from your patio. The scent will get the attention of all the little critters and drawing them to the soda instead of your picnic table.
我们都知道虫子喜爱甜的东西-----我们可以利用这个优势。如果你正在烤肉，在离你的庭院不远处的地上留一小杯可乐。可乐的芬芳会吸引小虫子的注意，爬向可乐，不会到你的野餐桌上捣乱了。
Grout Cleaner
瓷砖缝隙清洁剂
If the tile grout on your bathroom floor is looking a little...interesting...reach for a can of Coke. The acid in the soda combined with the carbonation packs a 1-2 punch against ground-in dirt. Simply pour over the tile, let sit for a few minutes, then clean the floor as usual.
浴室的地板的瓷砖的缝隙看上去有点...有趣...取一听可乐。苏打中的酸就会和碳混合后去除污渍。只需把可乐往地上洒一些，过几分钟，就可以像往常一样清洁地板了。
