In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

According to this conspiracy theory, if you turn the coca cola can upside down and view it in the mirror, it reads La Makkah La Muhammad. So, in order to see this message we have to totally manipulate the wording twice. Personally I think someone has a very vivid imagination

It is permissible to drink Coca Cola.
