I would totally complain about these but everytime I fill up my cup and see that badge I get all fizzy inside! Makes me wish I had Lotus luggage for better handling, or Borla tuned headphones, or Ian Callum designed pens. McLaren needs to make shopping carts!

I love those too!

I love how different places have different names for stuff. I’m not sure where you’re from but I’m from MN and I’ve always called them Pop Machines. I can’t remember where I was but I heard someone call the drinking fountain a bubbler...

It’s a lovely design that dispenses a liquid that bears no resemblance to products make by the Coca-Cola corporation

Simplify and add lightness... to your luggage! Who doesn’t want their luggage to be lighter?

I love them because they’re the only place I can get Mello Yello Zero in Colorado. Also, Minute Maid strawberry lemonade is as addictive as black tar heroin.

the only way to get Lime Coke in the US

Only problem is, once one drink runs out, a whole category shorts out! For example, if it runs out of Orange Coke, all the Coke flavors are deemed unavailable.

For me it’s grape Mello Yello Zero.

Pop Machine, I think that would be called a “bar” out here since that’s where all of our dads come from.

Hopefully it’s a parent I’m kidding, fam. Ha!

Anyways, I’m in the Southwest. Pop definitely isn’t used out here. Actually I don’t think people refer to all sodas as “Cokes” either. All facial tissues are Kleenex though...

Those Freestyle machines are fantastic! The only complaint I have about them is the line of people waiting to use the ONE dispenser. Which would be bad enough if not for the hesitation that happens as new users navigate the overwhelming array of choices. My first encounter with one of these took probably a good 45-60 seconds just to make up my mind.

What are you talkin about, man? This mass chromatograph I stole from a science lab 5 minutes ago because I had some energy I needed to burn and always wanted to do that say this black stuff totally is Coca Cola. Tastes like it, too. *sip* Now off to my 10th trip in the last hour to Burger King for another 64 oz refill.

Well yeah except they taste worse than the traditional fountain.

These are great, but the touch screens are awful.

OK, so what’s the gripe here? I know not all soda tastes the same (camellia grill in new Orleans had the old school guns and tasted noticeably great) but I’ve never noticed a difference with these.

These would be great if the Coke actually tasted like Coke. Love the look, hate the function.

Bubbler is also a Wisconsin thing! Though, I think it’s more of a southeastern Wisconsin thing since not all of the state says it, weirdly.

I’ve never had one that tastes normal, never. I could blind taste a freestyle machine 10/10 times.

The button on the one at the Qdoba near my office sticks sometimes, and overflows my cup. So annoying.

I love these things, except for the fact that the Coke that comes out tastes as much like real Coke as an e-cigarette tastes like a real cigarette. Don’t get me wrong, they’re both fine, I just enjoy them on different levels.

I love these things. Orange Coke is surprisingly tasty.
