Drink Me...
Do drinks taste
better than out of the bottle?
Is the eye drinking? Many people swear that they would
notice a difference: A soda tastes different if you drink it from a can, a
plastic bottle or a glass bottle.
Different sensory stimuli are
to blame, explains Jessica Freiherr,
For example, if the can is
red, we subconsciously assume that the drink is sweet. "Sparkling water is the most sparkling
when it comes in a blue bottle," says Freiherr.
Everyday
knowledge: Why soda foams when pouring-or not
And cocoa tastes the chocolatiest from an orange
mug. The eye drinks with it. "Decisive
for the perceived taste is also how much odor I get from a drink," says
Freiherr. With a sip from a can or bottle that is much
less than drinking from a glass.
The answer must be: Yes, drinks taste different in the can than in the bottle. But guilt is not a changed recipe, but our subjective perception.
