I prefer coke in a glass bottle and to buy a Mexican Coke is actually cheaper than buying a plastic bottle coke...

With glass there would be a lot more injuries. And clean up.

Coke used to come in recycled glass bottles and no one made a big deal about it.

That was before soda became a household word, many kids regularly drink them now, too, etc.

Why is that frightening?

I do not find it frightening.

I drink Coke every day and somehow I've stayed alive.

If they make them out of glass, then there will be broken pieces of glass everywhere.

I didn’t even notice the title. I was just looking up how consumption has increased.

You haven't had a soft drink until you taste again Cole in a glass bottle----- ----- if you can find it. But they want an outrageous price. They want as much for a little glass bottle as a 2-liter plastic! THAT SAID,

1. I thought plastic was recyclable!
2. I'm totally good with glass containers, actually prefer them. 100% recyclable, just a lot heavier, inconvenient and breakable.
3. I prefer Pepsi over Coke now ever since 'Coke II.'

It is really bad for your teeth and very fattening though. I used to drink soda all the time, but nowadays, I prefer water, iced coffee, or apple cider.

It is recyclable, but you have to recycle it. A lot of people don't recycle and throw them in the garbage.

I like glass containers because they keep the beverage colder.

Ha! When I drank soda, Pepsi was my favorite too.

So do the blacks here in America, so does it matter I drink Jesus piss or Jerome piss in my coke?

And do not even get me started about Asians and Coke...

Actually Mexican coke is like the old coke and not the crap they sell here... Maybe Pedro piss flavor it better?
