What’s the most interesting or bizarre fact you know?
I’ll start us off…
The Ancient Romans used to drop a piece of toast into their wine for good health - hence why we 'raise a toast'. |

This one is really mad, but in the 1980's Pepsi cola had the 6th biggest naval fleet in the world.
When the iron curtain came down Russians wanted Coca-cola, but Coca-cala wouldn't sell to them so they bought Pepsi instead.
When the Russian money started to runout they then started swapping their old naval ships for it n instead of Pepsi scrapping them straight away they kept them in storage n built up a large fleet of ships.
