When was the last time you had a coke in a glass bottle? 

Over time Coca Cola change its packaging. It was originally in a glass bottle, but as years went on they created new ways to package this drink. Now you have it in plastic bottle or cans. Each bottle size are different too

 

But now, since Coca Cola sales are going down, the company brought back glass bottles in hope to bring up sales. With bring back the glass bottles, they made the packaging smaller to, 7.5 ounces, to be less then 100 calories. This surprising brought up the sales of Coca Cola. Last year Coca Cola sales went up 9% and this year 19%. 

Now since we have to options of glass and plastic bottles, people are questioning that Coca Cola tastes different in a glass bottle. I tried it and i agree with that it does. Coca Cola spokespeople said differ. They say that the great taste of Coca Cola is the same regardless of packaging it comes in and that in a particular way that people choose to enjoy this Coke can affect their perception of taste. Yes the formula is the same, but according to FDA that packaging can change the flavor to the drink. Aluminum can might absorb small amounts of soluble flavor from the side or the acetaldehyde in plastic bottles might migrate into the soda. Even though the FDA does regulates that chemical contact but even the allowable amount can alter the flavor of the great Coca Cola.  There are other factors that can change the flavor of the side but over all your best bet for a pure coke is in a glass bottle.
