It has been announced by Coca-Cola what the last taste in the Creations range of the brand will be, and it sounds insane. The new flavor of Coca-Cola is named “Dreamworld,” and according to the company, it will provide your taste buds with “technicolor flavors and surrealism of the subconscious” — whatever that phrase means! The flavor was introduced on August 15 and concluded the Creation series, which is geared toward Generation Z and also contained flavors called “Byte,” “Starlight,” and “Marshmello’s limited edition,” the latter of which was developed in collaboration with DJ Marshmello.

An Interesting QR Code on the Bottle

When a consumer scans a barcode located on the can of the Coca-Cola Creation series, they are allowed to participate in an augmented reality music experience. Although it was advertised as having a flavor that was similar to that of pixels, Coca-Cola referred to its “Byte” flavor as “an outstanding tribute to gamers” and claimed that it “transcended both the digital and physical realms.” After the “Byte” drink was introduced in May, Oana Vlad, senior director of strategy for Coca-Cola, expressed hope that the drink would provoke discussion and interest” among consumers.

In their analysis of the “Byte” flavor, the website Polygon described the drink as having a “fruity” flavor with “hints of cherry.” In contrast, Marshmello’s creation had flavors of strawberry and watermelon.

Other Coca-Cola News

In other Coca-Cola-related news (because who doesn’t love reading about fizzy drinks? ), the company announced in May that it would be updating the style of its bottles to prevent littering and boost recycling. Some of Coca-Cola’s beverages now come with connected caps, marking an innovation in packaging design that is said to be a first for any major manufacturer of soft drinks. The new design is expected to be implemented in all the company’s plastic bottles by the beginning of 2024.

A true Marvel fan has now set a Guinness World Record for watching Spider-Man: No Way Home nearly 300 times! The record-breaker is a Florida resident, Ramiro Alanis, and he has been to the cinema to see the blockbuster 292 times, from December 16, 2021, to March 15, 2022.

A Real Spider-Man Fan

Alanis took 720 hours to watch the Spider-man movie and this is about 30 days out of his life. And that’s not even his first time breaking a record! Back in 2019, he set a record in the same category for watching Avengers: Endgame 191 times. However, the record was broken in 2021 by Arnaud Klein after he watched Kaamelott: First Installment 204 times in theaters. The Guinness World Records reported that Alanis wanted to take back the title in honor of his late grandmother who died before he broke the record in 2019.

Getting a Guinness World Record

Earning a Guinness World Record is not easy and doing it twice was definitely a challenge. Ramiro Alanis had to follow a set of rules. In order for each viewing of the movie to be counted in the total for the record, he was not allowed to do anything else rather than watch the movie. He was not allowed to look at his phone, go to the bathroom, take a nap, or engage in any other activity. He, unfortunately, learned that the hard way, after 11 of the viewings were disqualified because of bathroom breaks.

Spider-Man: No Way Home made history with its release in December of 2021, the movie shattered box office records during the opening weekend. The sequel earned $253 million at the domestic box office on the weekend of the release. The film topped another sequel set in the Spider-Man world, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. The great success of the film also made it the third-best movie opening, together with Avengers: Endgame which got $357.1 million, and Avengers: Infinity War which brought $257.7 million.
