Yet the United States still aggressively pursues an eradication policy that encourages Andean governments to spray their forests with toxic chemicals to eliminate this medicinal crop. It is illegal to import or possess the leaves under U.S. law -- unless you're the Coca-Cola Company. In an effort to preserve the traditional flavour of the best-selling drink, the company long ago convinced the U.S. government to exempt it from the law.
Coca-Cola is the only U.S. Corporation that has been granted the right to legally import coca leaves into the United States, via a coca processing lab known as the Stepan Company). In 1922, the Jones-Miller Act banned cocaine imports into the United States, but Coca-Cola (and its lab) was granted an exception. This exception remained a secret until the late 1980's when the New York Times seemed shocked to discover the truth.
[ YOU THINK HEADS OF COCA-COLA AND US GOV INSIDERS AREN'T ALSO PROCESSING AND DISTRIBUTING REAL COCAINE AFTER IMPORTING IT?
