When you drink soft drinks, which do you prefer to use? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2512)   ranked 36 out of 35,223 in people10 months ago

Some people are comfortable drinking their soft drinks right in the bottle, what I mean is just sip the drink right in the bottle, others use straw and most use glass. which do you prefer? For me, I usually use straw when I am in the restaurant or fast food. I have seen others that they just drink right from the bottle... well, not bad.. but not good either!! what about you?

I generally prefer glass but it is not that much preferable to me either.
I may go for bottle or straw from time to time.

Well, straw is a kind of decent way of having soft drinking.. but for me, I am more comfortable with glasses.

If it is a can or a 20 ounce bottle, I will drink right from the bottle, if I am at home and it's a 2 liter bottle, I get a glass. I never understood why they were called soft drinks though.:D

im pretty sure their called "soft drinks" bc they were made with no alcohol

hahaha I don't understand either why they called it soft drinks.. I just go with what is usually I heard but.. I remember now!! it's soda drinks.. well, yes, if it is in the can, just drink it right there.. that's what I do too if it is canned.

if its at a restaurant then i have to use a straw. if its a glass from your own home i think its safe to just drink it from the glass. i think if someone drinks it fromt he bottle then they are too lazy to get a glass.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2512)   ranked 36 out of 35,223 in people  10 months ago

You;re right!! good if it is a small bottle like 8 ounce? but what if it is a family size? whoaaa...But yes, when in the house.. glass is preferable.

hi bebs,

In a restaurant or fast food, I like to use straw on my soft drinks or juice. But when I'm at home I am comfortable with glasses. I seldom drink straight from the bottle.

Have fun posting
take care

Yea, me too... I am comfortable with the glass.. well, in the restaurant, you can choose to use straw or drink right from the glass.. even if they give you glasses you can also use straw with your glass.

If I buy a can or regular size soda I'm going to drink it right out of the can or bottle. It's not unsanitary. If I'm in a fast food or other restaurant and I order a soda, I like drinking it through a straw. If I have a large 2 litre bottle of soda at home I'm definitely not going to drink THAT from the bottle...I'll pour it in a glass. thumbup

Obviously when the bottle is too big? no body would drink right at that? ahaha but when it is 8 ounce? more people just sip it right there..

I usually drink from a straw if I'm at a restaurant, but if its from a beer bottle, I like a cold glass, but if I'm at a friends house I drink from the bottle. I guess its a personal preferance.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2512)   ranked 36 out of 35,223 in people  10 months ago

Oh yes, maybe it depends upon the place and situation..

Well, maybe straw is comfortable for others and it's like decent way of drinking soda.. lol

I don't drink much soda especially in the winter so I buy the big 2 liter bottle and just pour about half a glass but I reall like ountain soda the best from the gas station.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2512)   ranked 36 out of 35,223 in people  10 months ago

yes, that is the most common thing that people do when they bought 2 liter bottle of soda.. pout it in the glass.

It depends on what kind of container I'm getting the drink from. If I'm getting a 20 oz of pop or water, I'll drink it right from the bottle. If it's a 2 liter bottle of pop, I drink it from a glass with ice. When I'm out to eat, I'll drink from a cup with a straw.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Bebs08 (2512)   ranked 36 out of 35,223 in people  10 months ago

Well, I can understand that.. What you are saying is...it depends upon the situation.. thanks for sharing your thoughts..

In public places, I will use a straw. At home I usually drink from a glass unless it is a can or a 20oz bottle.

i don't drink aerat6ed colas at all they are not healthy, instead i take fruit juices, milk products like lassi (curd/ yoghurt shake sweetened or salty), which are really good for health & stop gap arrangement for a drink otherwise good old water.

these fizz colas are bad for your health, especially kids, please stop this as soon as possbile or if you don't believe me googled it.

you'll come to know.

all the best & god bless.....

well, I know that already, I seldom drink soda... but I know that there are many people who are soda drinkers and I am just curious to know what way they are doing it.. happyhappy
