I can’t finish the regular sized bottles half the time so I this would work out better for me.

This is fantastic. I’ll buy a regular size bottle if I’m having a meal and I’ll almost always finish it, yet when I’m out somewhere and I feel thirsty, it only takes a few sips and I’m fine, but I can’t manage to finish the rest.

Yes, lets continue to needlessly waste resources in useless packaging gimmicks.

@ ryry: gtfo my /jp/ filthy weeaboo.

We already have tons of “baby” cokes and stuff in the US, so it’s not really that impressive.

so? waste on the packaging, but you’re not wasting on the product itself.

What a great idea, putting a beverage in your back pocket so it can be consumed at body temperature! And this will help create extra plastic trash too, so it’s definitely win-win.

I don’t get it, what’s wrong with the aluminium bottles of coke you get out of vending machines that are about that size? Were they just not marketable enough…? They seem less wasteful to me- I certainly hear a lot less about the planet’s aluminium reserves running out.

I hope this doesn’t catch on in Germany, I really don’t see the point.
