    I imagine it must be some other mechanism of action? I find it hard to believe that the CO2 in that bit of coke could cause its stomach to expand to the point of explosion, but it does seem likely that there are some other ingredients in soda that are very harmful to birds

      It’s just mildly acidic sugar water. There’s not enough of anything is an entire can of coke to kill a bird. Unless this bread was soaked in a fast acting poison, this story is 100% bullshit.
