    Let’s not forget that stainless steel drinking bottles exist, and some booze can be bought in ceramic bottles, so we do have safer alternatives for transporting/holding beverages. There are fewer options for carbonated drinks, of course.

    • Oh yeah, I forgot about stainless. I’ve only ever seen overpriced water in those though. Also, I’m not nearly fancy enough to know about ceramic liquor bottles but I think I’ve probably seen them once or twice in the store. Usually filled with sake or something right?

        I bought an empty stainless steel bottle and fill it myself. :) It doesn’t take long for that to be cheaper than buying plastic bottled water.

      I miss glass bottles of coke.

      They’re still available, but mainstream supermarkets don’t tend to carry them as much.

        I don’t go for soft drinks often, but when I want one there’s a few brands of root beer that come in glass bottles that stores near me keep stocked.

      Delirium Tremens (a Trappist beer) is packaged in ceramic.
