Why does plastic bottled coke taste weird compared to canned?

Question

I don't think the strange taste is coming from the plastic...but it does not compare to coke in a can. Why?

Answer 1

i think it is just preference just like beer. some like to drink from a can others a bottle.

Answer 2

because every time you open it again some carbonation goes away. idk really but lol.....

Answer 3

Because can makes the gas out quickly compare to bottle and the can soda is like the same soda u get at fast food resturants the machine soda as you say thats why.

Answer 4

its the packaging.

the plastic bottle gives off certain chemicals into the coke, making it taste different.

and the can leaches metal into the soda, giving it a slightly metallic taste.

i prefer soda from a can as well (actually i like it from a fountain the best)  but, i prefer beer from a bottle.

Answer 5

It's just the packaging, it kind of does affect it, the old drinks drinks in glass bottles were best tasting in my opinion

Answer 6

u r probably used to drinking canned, wich i do say, does have a certain taste to it
