Yes you get Coke but until recently Scotland was about the only country in the world where it wasn't the best selling soft drink being outsold by Irn Bru.

You can get it, I found it to be MUCH MUCH sweeter than in the States, I didn't like it, but then I don't care for it much here either. Plus, it's REALLY expensive. I mean 5 or 6 bucks for a can.

Yes, it is a silly question - and quite patronising too.

Mind you, it probably would be a better place if we didn't have it.
