"... Coke just doesn't taste the same in anything else." Its the plastic, still off-gassing. 50 years, talk about long lasting flavor!

I recently tried Coke exported from Mexico (appearently not sold IN Mexico, export only) in a glass bottle and using cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup.  To say it "took me back" is an understatement.  I'm never drinking corn-syrup coke again.

Mexican Coke has become a favorite guilty pleasure.

Little tangent: my father used to own a luncheonette in the 60s and 70s, and I cannot begin to express the sheer delight of real soda fountain Coca-Cola with the actual sugar syrup.

I will take cane sugar soft drinks over corn syrup ones any day. But I don't drink colas regularly.

Tupperware had some pretty cool toys as I recall.  Something for the mothers who couldn't get child care for the parties...

Important Note: that’s coincidence, not cause and effect.
