The new lids are harder for kids to use, bother you when drinking, get in the way when pouring and are a general nuisance.
- saubeidl 1y ago> bother you when drinking, get in the way when pouring How? Just rotate it by 90 degrees. It's really not that hard, and in return you will never lose a cap again and we reduce litter by quite a bit. It's a pretty good trade-off imo.
- blub 1y agoI never lost a cap in my life, people don’t “lose” them, they throw them away. It bothers because it pulls back towards the bottle and presses on your mouth. Or if you use force to open it at 180, then it doesn’t screw back on properly because the plastic is bent and holds it in a wrong position. So again force is needed for something which used to be ridiculously easy. As I said, kids don’t manage that well. For adults, it’s one more little irritant.
- dzhiurgis 1y agoYou allow your kids to drink from plastic bottles?
- blub 1y agoNot allowing them is a nice theoretical approach that completely fails in the real world.
