What happens when you drink coke and eat mint?
Coke and mints will react. After throwing mints into coke for a few seconds, coke will gush out, and eating both may cause adverse reactions such as bloating and carbon dioxide poisoning.

In real life, mints stay in the mouth for a long time, and the loose structure on the surface will be digested and decomposed by enzymes in the mouth. Drinking carbonated drinks after eating mints will not have adverse effects on the human body. However, you can't take mints with carbonated drinks in your life, which is easy to cause bloating, vomiting and danger.

Boiling coke will throw "mentos" mints into the coke for a few seconds, and then a column of coke will gush out from the bottle, leaving only half a bottle of coke in the bottle. Drinking cola while eating special chewing gum may also produce very uncomfortable reactions.

When mints enter the stomach after oral chewing and saliva action, the particles in them are coated with a layer of food liquid, thus reducing the reaction ability of loose structure or rough surface.

Secondly, the process of cola entering the oral cavity and esophagus makes it no longer supersaturated, and carbon dioxide is gradually released. It is for this reason that there is burping in the process of drinking cola.

Therefore, the "fountain" phenomenon of boiling cola lost its forming conditions in the stomach, and the performance of bubble overflow was not as "amazing" as the experimental demonstration showed. However, it is not recommended to eat together. If people with stomach problems eat these two foods together, a large amount of gas will cause discomfort in the stomach and affect their health.
