My dad used to bring a pack of American Coca-Cola back any time he went. It's not even close to the British equivalent. I believe it's due to the good old high

  That's funny. American Coke snobs drink Mexican Coke from glass bottles, the usual explanation being corn syrup is worse than white sugar. Similarly, Texans bus "Dublin Dr. Pepper" bottled in Dublin, TX for the same reason.

  I will agree the glass bottle versions taste better, from my observations/experience, it seems to be down to how the co2 reacts in the container and I find the plastic bottle the co2 is somewhat smaller and light in the taste, the cans - somewhat better and medium and yet the glass bottle. Ah yes the glass bottles just seem to have large bubble into the mix and in the taste, that just is a factor that stands out. Though an easy one to test for yourself, get cola form same area - plastic bottle, can and glass bottle and blind taste for yourself and see if you can notice the difference. It is one I could do, though not done for a while and yet was so standout. I will add that the diet version of the drinks do somewhat not lend themselves to such taste differences and talking fall fat sugar variations of cola here. I will concur from my observations, the sugar as well as the water used for production, do seem to be the dicerning factors in varaition.
