Is it true that Coca-Cola in glass tastes better than Coca-Cola in plastic?

Biochemists assure that the material of the container still plays a role. While manufacturers have been working for years to minimize reactions between packaging and products, this is not always possible.

So in an aluminum jar, for example, some of the flavor is lost. In a plastic bottle, acetaldehyde gets into cola, which slightly changes the taste. Because of this, the drink gets a “plastic” aftertaste.

If we talk about glass, it is the most inert material. It reacts less with a drink than plastic or even aluminum. Therefore, the purest taste of cola can be felt if you drink it from a glass bottle. It tastes a little worse in cans. And only in the last place is to buy cola in plastic bottles.
