"Cocaine comes from Coca beans."

Not quite. Cocoa (and chocolate) come from cacao beans. Cocaine comes from the leaves of the coca plant. Coca cola did contain cocaine, though. I read somewhere, but can't vouch for the truth of it, that coca cola still uses coca leaves for flavour, although the cocaine has to be removed.
