They're cute.
There's a certain feeling of nostalgia drinking an icy Coke in a glass bottle.
My gripe: No carbonation/bubbles!!
I don't want to guzzle a flat Coke!

(54,393 posts)You can literally shake the small bottle and nothing. Not even small bubbles on the top.
And you pop the cap, take a swig, and no carbonation whatsoever.

it will be epic.

(10,309 posts)Having been raised in a very rural area, that was common enough. The big companies couldn't care less about product when it is being shipped to some backwater that the corporate stooges have never even heard of, much less set foot in.
With the corporations trying desperately to squeeze every cent from us before the sky falls in, this is becoming more and more common everywhere, I bet.

(75,902 posts)...there are old(!) pop bottles galore.
At one store, there is a Pepsi bottle so old that it's thickness is not consistent across the entire surface. That suggests it's close to 100 years old bottle making (and associated molds) became fully automated.
