Pepsi Zero in a glass bottle

[GON]

Came across something I never saw before.

A diet soda in a glass individual serving bottle.

Picture of Pepsi Zero in a glass bottle available as a normal individual serving in Perth, Australia.

No bottle opener required.

Hotel club lounge? I have come across Coke Light in a glass bottle, but it was the traditional Coke bottle with traditional bottle cap.

Yes, hotel lounge.

I have never seen any diet soda in a glass bottle before. Glass bottle sure beats plastic and aluminum bottles and cans.

Long live Mexican cane sugar coke in the glass bottle (I enjoy a bottle of Mexican Coke about once every two years).

I’m old enough to remember Tab and Diet Pepsi in the old school 12 & 8 oz. glass bottles, and in vending machines (‘70s). Seem to remember them a little cheaper, and a 2 cent or 5 cent deposit on the bottle too!

$2.40 for each bottle now.

$2.40 for each bottle now.

I remember when I was a kid in the late 70's. One day I went to the soda machine in my home town, yes there was exactly one machine, and the price was $0.25. I went back about a month later and the price was $0.75. That was quite a lesson in economics.

Back in the day, we called it pop and it always tasted better in glass. There was a deposit on the bottle.

I believe "pop" is a MN/WI thing .

Down here it used to be "sody" in the small towns. May still be.

Summertime trips to the laundromat featured a machine which dispensed 16 oz. bottles of brand new "Mountain Dew" (yaa-hoo).
400g of sugar and 17,450,000 mg of caffein in an 8 year old kid; what's the problem?

Shouldn't there be a skull and crossbones somewhere on the label?

That is one thing which still sounds odd to me as a transplant from Southern CA to Northern IN. It is called pop here. I'm used to it called soda.

And Iowa, but if you say "pop" in Illinois they will look at you like you have three heads.

Latch key kids. Pick up your mom a pack of menthols on your walk home.

In Oklahoma they say "sody water."

It was "pop" in SD where I was raised as well. Seemed odd when I came to MO it was "soda". I saw a chart recently and pop is dying out, soda is the majority of the country now. I suspect all the additional beverages now available might have something to do with it.

 

[dadto2]

Pop here in Western NY too.

I bet diet dew would taste great in a bottle. I could do without my daily dose of aluminum and plastic. Heck I would even start returning bottles like in the past instead of throwing everything in the trash.

I can remember kids getting their arms stuck up in the machines too. Seems some didn't like the price increases.

Every time I see or hear "Pepsi", I'm reminded of the fact that they once owned the 6th largest Naval battle fleet in the world.
