Why does McDonald's Coca-Cola taste so much better than store bought coke?

>> No.16777933

>>16777919
They use a higher ratio of syrup to carbonated water than premixed stuff sold in stores.

>> No.16777993

They only let white people maintain and operate the soda machine.

this is true, plus they use the same bag in a box you can get a sams club. they just have stringent standards:
filtered tap water
constant checks on temperature for proper carbonation
and fast turnover

I know this because the bartending industry uses them as a standard for how beer should be handled and served.

It's the exact same syrup and carbonated water mixture. You may think it tastes better because you are consuming heavily salted food with it. The ice may also play a factor.

mcdonalds sprite do be hitting different tho

>> No.16780907

I know this is a mcdonalds shill thread, but I find soda from soda fountains is generally better than bottled soda in general; even if it’s a shitty fast food fountain.
I think it’s generally just something about the syrup and seltzer being mixed as they’re poured. Not as homogenous as bottled soda maybe.

The root beer I got there is noticeably sweeter than other places. I'm sure they just use a higher concentration of syrup to water or whatever.

Huh?

It's way sweeter, therefore the syrup ratio is different or they're adding something

correct

I work at McDonald's. Coke is the only soda to not be stored in those plastic syrup bags with the box.

The coke is stored in pressurized metal tins.

People unironically believe this shit. People think Guiness exports "fake" beer and keeps all their "good" beer in Ireland.

People just experience slightly different tastes and experiences at different times and go, 'THERE MUST BE A CONSPIRACY DEY DONT WANT US TO KNOW ABOUT.'

>> No.16783103

There are different grades of Guiness. It is real. But its not "fake" guiness. The difference is negligible and getting a properly poured pint is what really makes a difference

>> No.16783235

>>16777933
this is correct. The ratio assumes you will get ice which will bring it to the correct ratio half way through melting.

Wrong, I get Coke with no ice from McDonald's by itself because it's $1 for a large while a 20 oz is $1.50. Absolutely not the same.

Meanwhile, Burger King sodas are like someone accidentally got a single drop of water in the syrup. Absolutely disgusting. You need a ton of ice to start melting just to get it to a somewhat salvageable mixture.
