Most likely, you’re paying more for the ability to close the bottle.
But still… you’re getting less coke if you get the bottle.
Seriously… I’m going to venture a guess and say that people normally buy cans of coke to drink where they open it. Don’t know the percentage, but I think it’s probably going to be the #1 use case.
I wonder if people actually gave it some thought… At least… I’m nerdy enough to think I do.
Dude have you ever noticed that coke from bottles is generally “fresher” and more carbonated? I don’t know if it’s my local coke plants (Central Mass) but it seems that all the coke cans I have bought over the past year have been only half as carbonated and seem like piss compared to a nice fresh bottle. I dont know if anyone else has reported this.
