numbern 4 slightly chilled can
post
my current dentist bill says none. But who are we kidding it’s obviously number 3.
Three, but instead of coke make it ice water or unsweetened tea.
Out of glass with ice in it
Where's plastic bag with straw option?
not to, because they have illegal bottling plants in the West Bank
Okay - how about if it were a homemade cola prepared in a sodastream style and the aluminum can in the right were sourced from a recycling center to reduce waste (and the others vessels are thrift ware)
Can you express a preference in that case? (I get the point you're making, fine; but at least answer the question they're about the aesthetic of the containers)
Sodastream is an Israeli company
A) Your point? Just because a government has done evil things doesn't mean its people are evil. Unless you want to demonstrate that sodastream is under direct influence of their government, this is just guilt by association.
B) Did I say we were using a Sodastream? We're using a home made CO2 device connected to a food grade bottle that we use to fizz the drink - we just use the same screw thread size as the sodastream product because it's currently popular.
Relax. It's not that serious.
You said soda stream, so I assumed soda stream. Big whoops on my part.
If you care about things like Coke being evil, then you should care about things like money flowing into countries whose governments are evil and benefit from that flow via export taxes.
In my opinion, the original post was "some guy" reviewing their pics and asked "which of these beverage container photos is most photogenic?" - a super casual question, and @Anomalocaris@lemm.ee said "Coke-Cola is evil!" - which is absolutely true.
I tried to carefully reword the question to ask it in an unbranded way - what is @Anomalocaris@lemm.ee's thoughts if we push past the corporation=bad thought stopper. However I failed - and you, @surewhynotlem@lemmy.world, jumped on the new thought stopper "sodastream". I can't say I believe sodastream is as evil as Coke™, but they're also certainly not angels. I'm sure you can argue that case.
But the question wasn't about really about Coke. The question definitely wasn't about SodaStream. The question @Armand1@lemmy.world was asking is "Which drink vessel of mine do you like?" And I don't think you two answered that part of the question. I do love the anti-capitalist messages - but would it hurt either of you to throw Armond1 a bone in your reply to address the aesthetical question they're asking?
The flavour is just not for me, I don't like the taste of apartheid and genocide
Yeah in addition to the BDS argument, Coca Cola is the worst plastics polluter in the world:

Don't.
Coke is bad for your health, and it's made by a bad company that does bad things.
A never once been washed coffee mug

Can coke is best coke.
Then 20oz bottle.
Then taps, but only if they aren't cheap with the syrup or heavy-handed with the bubbles.
Mr. Schubert? Is this you?
My first department head during my apprenticeship had a mug like that for his Coke Light. Takes me back a quarter of a century. Damn, I'm getting old.
Bottle with the label ripped off. That way, once people are used to it, I can drink used motor oil without all the questions.
The best way to drink Coke is from a McDonald's soda fountain. No cup, just put your mouth under the spout.
What kind of freak drinks coke?
You snort powder, ffs..
Almost got me, I didn’t realize which community this is. Was about say “just drink it from the bottle/can?”
First of all, who the hell opens a can like that?! I guess you get your lips pierced for free...
Anyways, I exclusively buy coke in 1L bottles so that I can always ask for "a liter of cola."
The can. Because it’s the smallest serving size and I’m otherwise poor at moderation
Although opening it like that looks dangerous.
Honestly that last one looks pretty dope. I gotta try that.
Not recommended, you could cut yourself on the edge.
I think the story there was that I broke off the tab by accident.
I just tried to open a soda can with my somewhat modern can opener (try them, btw, no sharp can edges) but it doesn't fit the lid of my can. My day is ruined.
Yeah, I have to agree; if your plastic cup isn't labeled "coffee", then why are you even bothering to drink a coke?
