Coca-Cola celebrated the 75th anniversary of Fanta with a video, in which they call Nazi Germany “good old times.” Now the company is disassociating itself from the video.
The video starts with an unassuming line: "75 years ago, resources for our beloved Coke in Germany were scarce."

But why exactly were resources scarce in Germany at that time? Coca-Cola doesn't mention that.

Here's a hint: From 1939 on, Germany was waging war in Europe.

The workaround that Coca-Cola's German branch had to that resource scarcity was a "fantastic idea," as the video explains, hence why it's called "Fanta."
