cold glass bottle are the best imo. Too bad they are really expensive and maybe not optimal for the environment
 
What's the deal with mexican Coke?

And, like everyone said, Glass >>> can >>>>>>>>>> plastic

unlike the inferior American coke that uses high fructose corn syrup the Mexican coke still uses real cane sugar in its formula. That plus a glass bottle (we also have cans and plastic too but glass is best) and it makes it the GOAT of Cokes.

NOTHING tastes better when quenching your dehydrated-ass mouth after eating a shitload of greasy and salty popcorn.

I just had a baby plastic bottle coke zero that was one of the best cokes I've ever had.

Glass bottle is a placebo, and so is the sugar cane in Mexican Coke, only even more so.

I really love the glass bottles, whether they're the big ones from Mexico or the smaller ones, which I believe are bottled in the United States.

Part of it, I think, is the lack of oxidation (although I'm not too clear on the science involved, and may be wholly wrong on this). I think another part is the real sugar they use in the Mexican versions of Coke.

Plastic bottle of coke > can > fountain no ice > fountain with ice. For some reason, the cans of coke taste funny compared to the plastic bottles.

I don't have access to glass or Mexican coke so I haven't had any of those.
 
Glass bottles tend to use sugar instead of corn syrup, so the taste actually IS different.

I believe that was changed in some areas but not others. AFAIK glass bottles sold in the US still have Coke that use regular sugar.

The higher carbonation and psi is better in glass, so that's why glass bottles are better.

I guess some people could pick out HFCs but I think that's just placebo.


I prefer coke zero over regular coke, so what do I know.

Hell, I can tell the difference between which place sold the Coke.

McDonalds is super good and clean and sweet.

Burger King's tastes like they threw in some Apple Jacks crumbs.

Mexican coke is overrated and not worth the premium. The bottles are also too small. I want more soda than that. It's better than regular coke but not worth it.

McDonald's Coke is their secret best product. It is hands down better than any other type of Coke. Get that shit large for $1, fuck yeah.

Can is the only other acceptable answer.

Well, yeah. Different restaurants have a varying level of calibration in their machines.

Glass bottle.
Not sure why, but that's the only proper coca cola.


And what's up with some of you guys, MC Donald's is awful, watered down and re-sweetened and 75% ice cubes anyway. Eww

No ice if you get it off the fountain yourself. McDonalds just cleans their machines more regularly and has a slightly higher syrup to water ratio

good with gravy
Glass, sugar cane, chilled, poured on large ice.

Come on son.

Anyone who says can or plastic or fountain is insane.

How can people choose fountain????

Yeah...
 
I assume when you guys say "Mexican Coke", you're referring to coke that uses sugar instead of corn syrup?

My answer is cans, mainly because I can't remember the last time I bought a glass bottle coke. I barely drink any coke these days anyway.

Coke? Fountain is the best. Bottle for convenience, glass bottle then can.

Pepsi? Bottle for convenience, can, then fountain.
 
All drinks taste better from glass bottle.

Also Mexican Coke is basically World Coke. American Coke is the fucked up Coke. Even though you guys invented it.

I do enjoy soda straight out of the can, I quite like the metallic taste

I don't mind any of the other ones though
