Numbers on bottom of Ice Coffees

Postby BenchedEagle » Wed Jun 25, 2008 4:59 pm

can someone settle an argument we have running at work about the little number on the bottom of FUIC's?
One side says its just which Vat it is brewed in.
Other side says each number represents a strength of the coffee, noticeable in the taste which i admit u can notice between numbers.

I know some guys who look for a #4 in the fridge b4 buying it?!?!?!

Anyone know the facts?

Possibly just which packaging line for quality control purposes, so they know which line to close rather than close them all in case of contamination arising.

Friend no. 1 is the winner, as they are brewed in 4 different states. But you can let your mates keep looking in the fridge for the strong ones for a good laugh though.. :lol:

probably ours I'd imagine, I couldnt see the biggest IC drinkers drinking imported stuff.

Tassie produce their own (FUIC is their IC of choice.. no wonder I like the place :wink: )

Melbourne, sydney and QLD produce as well..

At this stage I was going to ask if they do a 69, but that would just bring the tomne down, So i won't ask.
