As far as I am seeing on Snopes and CBS News, this 7-Up ad was a real ad in the 1950’s.

NOTE! There is almost the same image circulating that claims to be about giving beer to infants. That is a FAKE ad. It looks virtually identical as this one, but replaces 7-Up with beer. Same baby etc.

There is also a “Soda Pop Board of America” fake ad, with the tagline, “For a Better Start in Life, Start Cola Earlier”. It also features a photo of a baby, but looks different from this. That ad is also FAKE -> Hoax Ad

    Went to a restaurant and the waitress thought I’d like a chocolate Coke. Tried it. Wasn’t terrible, but I’m not going to seek it out for myself.

      I recommend adding a couple dashes of chocolate bitters to your coke if you want to try a version that is actually good
