Answer 1

My response is purely speculation, so YMMV.

.

There’s a study done about why McDonalds coke taste better. They found out that the straw was slightly bigger.

So the bigger the straw, the faster you drink, the more reaction between the coke and your taste buds.

My speculation is that there’s an optional ration of how much and how quickly a soda should go in your mouth. So a can might be the better ratio for you – whereas glass bottle often has a lag because of the smaller orifice and the “glugging” effect
