- People often have strong opinions about how they drink their soda. Some people prefer it in a can, others prefer a glass or plastic bottle. While soda companies claim that the recipe doesn't change, there are a few factors that might affect the way you taste a soda depending on the container.

Glass bottle Is the best in my "taste"
same mate
Same but its hard to find in normal shops
I like glass becuse there like an each amount of sugar in it to me
@@c47_ I see em at Publix all the times. And if you’re looking for some extra flavor, they sell the even taller glass bottles at food town.
In Philippines most soda and beer comes in glass bottle. Glass bottle is cheaper than plastic and can in Philippines, in fact can is the most expensive
1. Glass bottle
2. Can
3. Plastic bottles
The only answer
True
The glass bottle version of Coca Cola is more aesthetic looking tbh
Meme Magic it is..but it also tastes the best. I had a glass coke the other day. Was the best bottle of soda I’ve had in years tbh.
The glass one looks better imo
In order:
Glass bottle
Can
Plastic bottle

Finally someone who understands
Pretty much this
Yeeeeeesss
This is undeniable fact
1. glass (has least and most expensive)
2. can (best out of the bunch for money/benefit)
3. bottle (tastes worst, cheapest)
Glass is cheaper than bottle
@@0iqvtt6nx92bz he didnt keep the fact of money - size ratio
I know it's been 2 years, but:
1. Glass
2. McDonald's
3. Can
4. Plastic
I prefer plastic bottle cause it's cheap.
I think we can all agree thats glass bottles are the best for coke
I wish they would of included fountain drinks. Coke tastes very different at Whataburger vs McDonalds vs Chick-fil-A. There is a science to fountain machines.
Agreed
It's because they water down their drinks.
Anne Smith Fountain drinks are just carbonated water and syrup, i.e sprite, dr. Pepper, coke - it can taste better, or worse from a fountain
I have heard that McDonalds tastes so much different (better) than the other places because of how the syrup is stored (They store it cold, which most places don't. They store it in metal containers rather than plastic like other fast food places.)
That's because they can control the ratio of syrup to carbonated water. You ever go to a fountain drink and get straight carbonated water with a drop of syrup? 🤢 McDonald's uses a special blend for their coke too
Yall who dont taste a difference, you dont drink enough soda......
Mylina Genevie yep like me I just drink when in parties or some occasions
Mylina Genevie *amen*
Mylina Genevie Sound like a good thing to me !
LOL
same with water
Yall who taste a difference... You drink too much soda.
I always prefer my soda in a glass bottle.
yeah it tastes better in a glass bottle. and can tastes better that bottle. Or atleast thats what think
@@dragonfireplayz5969 dude in a can it has different taste it might be because of the metal or alluminium while in glass bottle it has the original taste
I like opening them with a bottle opener
Same
@@dailyblankscreen7938 Same, it's very satisfying.
Glass all the way. It's a damn shame that I struggle to get other flavors in glass other than Coke.
Really, thats odd. Most stores near me even carry Jarritos. Sodas with real sugar have a better taste.
I dont mind the containers much when it comes to most soda, but I really enjoy drinking Coca-Cola out of a glass bottle, it just feels more authentic to drink it that way. Plus I prefer the Mexican Coca-Cola that comes in the big glass bottles that has real cane sugar in it as opposed to corn syrup :)
For real! Sugar cane is amazing!
I don't even drink soda that often and I have an opinion (it's glass bottle, but can is a close second)
Soda is good to drink when you have diarrhea.
You also have to take into account that most glass Cokes are made in Mexico. This is important, because in Mexico, they use CANE SUGAR instead of High Fructose Corn Syrup which is used in the formula for plastic bottles, and cans. The glass preserves carbonation better than can or plastic bottle. Other than the carbonation, the taste is different due to a different recipe, and not the bottle (Cane Sugar being exclusive to Mexican bottled Coke).
The best is Mexican Coca-Cola in a glass bottle.
Яaven Caster thats because the mexican coke actually does use different ingredients. It's real sugar
Amen👍
In the UK all our Coke is made using "real" sugar, only the US uses HFCS.
Well... It's just coke with cane Sugar. Which they have been using for almost a 100 years. Mexican Coca Cola© is just marketing.
Yes those i preferred more real sugar and less ingredients
Glass bottles
1-glass bottle
2-can
3-plastic bottle
i searched for a video like this because i recently noticed a difference in soda in bottle and in can since i started to drink can more and i still havent really gotten an answer as to why they taste different but i enjoyed the video
Me too😂 I knew it was something different
I like the glass for the overall feel and portion control, since I'm cutting back on how much soda I drink and 8oz (or 12oz Mexicoke) is plenty for me on a somewhat regular basis.
However, the cans are great for when I don't care about how much I'm drinking, but I try to stay away from plastic bottles.
Cans! Drinking from a can makes drinks taste so much better.
Second is glass.
Plastic just makes everything taste way to sweet and completely change the original taste
Cat Walker Hell no, glass tastes so much better than cans.
ZomeDash // Levi please don't eat glass. :P
Good to know
Same!
Hellll nooo. Cans are disgusting. Glass is first, followed by plastic.
It does taste different?
Yeah, I guess 😅
I remember the times where Pepsi Twist was more common. The difference between when they're in a can or plastic bag is significant to me.
Tastes WAY better in a plastic bag with a straw.
You learn something new every day
Glass bottle will always have the best taste
Hands down
Can tastes better!
Akarsh Mahadi S the can or the coke?
Coke in glass is best by far. Can is last on the list for sure
Akarsh Mahadi S I know this is from a year ago, but can you tell me why?
I agree this needs more likes
I hate soda from plastic. It looses that crisp chill way too fast after it's left the fridge, and for some reason the carbonation looses intensity way faster out of plastic too. There's also a slightly different flavour, likely from the plastic. Another downside is the permeability of plastic allowing the drink to lose carbonation over time.
All in all, plastic sucks for sodas.
Yep!!! I agree 👍
Best is opening coke from a can and then drinking it from glass
i feel like cans have a similar effect to wine glasses when smelling the drink as opposed to a bottle, i often feel like i get more flavor from a can just from more fragrance
For me, the main thing plastic bottle has over the other two is the lid being being the easiest to uses and is able to be reattached fine, so it it much more portable, and it’s ease of acquiring. I do prefer can, just love the hiss and crack of opening it up, though I haven’t had glass bottle enough regularly, I feel like I would like it the best.
Coca-Cola is good
And I like glass
Thx insider!! Could y’all pls do more videos like this?
Glass Bottle.
Soda fountain > can = bottle
Why is a fountain better?
Because the flavor syrup is combined with the carbonated water the second it dispenses, so you technically get the freshest flavor, meanwhile the cans and bottles, the water and syrup are combined at the factory, and can take as long as a week to get from factory to your mouth.
The distributor also calibrates the mix but I think they add more to compensate for the ice used and you may be getting a sweeter drink until all the ice melts.
I don’t like to drink sodas. Just because I know it’s not too healthy. But man, when it comes to a glass bottle.... it persuades me to drink one almost every time.
Glass bottle for me makes it easy to go down. Plastic bottle is hard to gulp and is usually warm and stale with extra bubbles. Cans taste like a mixture of the 2
I like the slim can classic coke
Glass soda in CA is only available from a Mexico processing plant and they also use real sugar not HFC. Cans have a portion of the aluminum exposed when opened. so yes you are drinking out of an Al holder but most of the drink is not exposed to it. unless it is old soda. Old soda in plastic also looses so carbonation so it not as secure some go flat. Thus freshness is a key factor too. Diet has the shortest shelf life if you look at the markings.
I just watched this and it made me thirsty
"Plastic bottles don't affect taste"
meanwhile microplastics: Eyy I'm in your bloodstream
Glass is the best; particularly since the original recipe is bottled only in glass. Also, it is the greenest container; glass can be washed or recycled infinitely. But companies don't like it as much because it is the heaviest.
I've never tasted a difference, but ig that's bc i rarely drink Coke 🤷♀️
I saw that they thought only certain parts of the tongue taste certain things. That's bull crap. I trusted you more than this INSIDER.
Plastic is generally the worst. they made coke once in aluminum bottles, they tasted so much better for some reason, on top of aesthetically looking amazing.
Cans? Glass? Plastic? I snore my coke directly from a table
I dont think snoreing is gonna doing anything
Glass wins ! no competition here !
I prefer glass because not only does it taste better but it is also more environmentally friendly
The glass bottles of the best especially when it's icy cold
Glass is a classic! Also Fanta from a glass in Italy is insanely good!
how about soda from vending manchine that fast food restaurant always use? It says that they do 70% soda 30% water combination to make it more watery with less carbonation which why many people able to drink fast without having sensation of carbonate in mouth
I think can i best overall . Better taste than plastic and less price than glass . Also as sober it feels like drinking beer in can . Its kinda cool 😜😜😜
*pEpsI bOtTle, cOcA cOlA gLaSs, i dOn'T gIvE A dAmN*
The best one is definitely the glass then I think it tastes better than cans in big plastic bottles but worse in small bottles
Why does the can soda loose crisp taste when poured into a glass cup on ice
I can taste the metallic from drinking out if a can. For this reason I prefer plastic bottles or glass bottles. But finding glass pepsi is so rare.
Did depends on the flavor that’s inside and where u get it
Does it affect d taste of water?
Good question
Glass forever
Ive always loved glass coke but i cannot find it anywere
coke that served in restaurants with ice cubes is the best, thats it
What about restaurant cokes like McDonald’s?
Ice cold can of 7up or pepsi served in a pint or 20 oz glass full. Of ice
It does?Lmao didn't notice.
Drawtaku - Chan you’re immortal
I rarley find glass bottles of coke at my local stores.. ice cold canned coke all the way for me! So good!
Can I'd the perfect taste. Canned coke is so much better tasting than bottled
I prefer cans, but I’ll drink soda no matter what.
man, insider's SODA best
Also tastes different when poured into a cup
Because of the material
It's not only different for everybody, but for me it is also different depending on the drink.
I prefer Pepsi from a can.
Coke from a glass bottle.
Beer from a glass bottle or a proper beer glass (especially hefeweizen).
The list goes on. But nothing from a plastic bottle. When I pour it into a glass though, it doesn't matter what the soda or drink was in before (with the exception being beer). I think the feel of the container wasn't adressed enough. The great thing about cans is that they feel colder and that changes the experience significantly. They also are smoother than plastic bottles. Our lips do play a role in our drinking experience. That's why I for example can't enjoy anything directly out of a carton.
But I buy milk in glass bottles when I can, because I find the carton taste gets to the milk somehow. Doesn't seem to happen with juices though.
1.Fountain(Ik they didn’t talk about this but still)
2. Glass
3.bottle
4. Can
Cherry Coke or Vanilla Coke
20oz bottle in freezer for little bit.
It is definitely best really cold out of a glass bottle.
Cans! And glass! Anyone who drinks from plastic is wrong! Now excuse me while I get my soda outta the freezer
Glass feels dignified for me, but what does it matter anymore I quit soda year ago.
Glass Bottle if you want the best taste
Can if you want a perfect middle ground
Plastic Bottle is for parties or for large consumption
I don't see alot of energy-drinks (monster, redbull) that are in bottle, and I tried Redbull on bottle some times but it really taste different!
Definitely prefer glass but it’s way more expensive to get those Mexican bottle cokes so I usually get cans
Can & glass for me
Idk why but I like bottled more than canned. But I still drink canned anyway because that's the good stuff.
I can’t taste the difference, but I always get cans because I drink them at like a third of the speed of a big 2 liter
Fizzing SomeOne is fun.👌
most stores in my country don't have glass bottles, so that's why i drink from a can.
pepsi in cans is more like a foam then a sugar water
Glass bottle, ice cold. 😁
Ice cold always
I think glass bottles can last longer i had a cream sodas with friends that were over 25 years old some were good some were bad but they tasted okay then i also had a cokeicola from 89 and it tasted pretty good. I will always love glass bottles with soda in it instead of plastic i only wished my local dam stores sold more. and were so goddamn so expensive for 6 of them.
It's really a flex for still enjoying glass bottle coca-cola til this day, and it is much cheaper than cans and plastic bottles
I prefer glass bottle because it is so chilling cold to drink

5. Plastic Bottle when it’s necessary to “close” the drink
Glass bottle
Different batches easily makes the biggest difference. And that the soda hasn't gone flat of course.
Anyone who has drinked Red Bull daily for years can tell which taste sweet and awesome and which taste off. And it's not from the effect that on some days i might taste it different depending what i've eaten but i've taste tested multiple cans side by side and others have a sweeter taste and others more bitter or just more off. I'm assuming every Coke batch can't taste exactly the same either
Everyone knows soda from the soda fountain is always the best
Can is best
That one guy that drinks from a cup
Cans are the best in my opinion. It’s more crisp
Thank you😂 glass people tripping
Glass bottle uses sugar, plastic and caned use high fructose corn syrup
chill soda in a can then pour it in a glass cans get dirty from whatever pests you find in warehouses a glass is clean -unless you don't do the dishes properly-
Glass is absolute best and also recyclable
They taste different depending on temperature, not container.
1. Good fountain soda
2. Glass bottle
3. Can
4. Small plastic bottle
5. Bad fountain soda
6. Large plastic bottle
In Order:
1. Can
2. Glass Bottle
3. Plastic Bottle
Agreed
Nice video
had no idea they tasted different depending in which container. thought it was how old the soda was or something
You learn something new ever day
Coke is like a different animal in cans. It has more bite and doesn't taste as sweet. I'm from a small town near the birth place of Coca-Cola and it's a very unpopular notion to prefer it in a can instead of a glass bottle. Like "somebody get a rope" unpopular. Not too many people will bat an eye at someone who is openly gay, but "don't ask don't tell " is still the best rule of thumb if you prefer Coke in cans.
Glass bottles are best
those who say the mexican coca cola are right just watch where you actually buy them from, when it come to Walmart or any other American grocery store they use the same corn syrup bc they are trying to sell you “the real thing”. I would recommend going to small mexican store which they come with the spanish ingredient in a sticker (white or yellow) which are the real thing
Glass and can is the best way
