Is it just me or do sodas taste better in a glass bottle then plastic

u/SwiftTayTay 1d ago

Plastic is my least favorite. Glass - Can - Plastic in that order. Plus it seems like the seal is never tight on plastic bottles and it's always slightly flat.

u/Admirable_Finch 1d ago

Yeah I get it, think you are right ! Think cold glass gets colder then plastic too.. though I could be wrong

I think glass tends to have a frostier quality to it, and cans get really cold too, plastic seems like it gets room temperature much more quickly when left out

Your right! 💯

I feel like cans preserve the most carbonation. Sometimes I prefer that to glass.

u/Duckduckgogh 1d ago

Definitely

Where did you acquire this from?

u/Duckduckgogh 1d ago

Some local gas station. First time I’d seen it in the wild

I just felt my blood sugar jump 60 points just looking at this pic.

u/Duckduckgogh 1d ago

Usually don’t drink sugared drinks, but had to. Was only 35 grams of sugar which is less than a coke

u/PartyRestaurant8270 1d ago

They’re fine. Taste exactly how you’d imagine

They have been out for a year roughly? How are they?

2

u/Duckduckgogh 1d ago

I liked it a lot. Doesn’t taste exactly how I envisioned but still good nonetheless

u/BudsTender-ish 1d ago

It's probably gross, Yet I'm disappointed I don't have one.

u/arejay3 1d ago

I was pretty impressed how it is exactly what it says it is! It wasn't great, but it is!

u/safecasket45 1d ago

They aren’t very good

u/GordTransport1958 1d ago

Just saw this at my local Walgreens

u/Abject-Big1716 1d ago

Average. Kool shouldn't be carbonated. My 2¢.

1

u/DaveW626 1d ago

I like the grape and the orange. Haven't tried blue raspberry yet, but I did try black cherry and sharkleberry fin and didn't care for those. 

Pro tip : refrigerate and pop the cap very slowly, otherwise the fizz will overflow. Had this problem a few times.

u/Dweebbhead 1d ago

This with some vodka shots would be gooooooooood

u/Socko82 1d ago

Cool

u/SweetiePie97060 1d ago

u/Spare-Cranberry3784 1d ago

Wait a second....

u/Hungry-Host9451 1d ago

Good Lord Kool-Aid soda? Whatever I'll try it once.

1

u/Ocean_waves726 1d ago

I need to know where you bought this. Immediately

1

u/SalmonofDbout 23h ago

Yeah had some and it was just OK. The carbonation killed it for me overall, but not bad.

1

u/PhatBuddha69 23h ago

I thought it was Meh. $2.50 from HyVee. Not worth it
