Settle this very first world debate over pop 😂

[QuestionableMouse]

Ordered a take away meal deal. It comes with a burger, chips and a can of pop.

I have been supplied with a 200ml bottle.

I think that's fine, close enough to can size.

Friend thinks it's wrong and that they should have supplied two bottles so it was closer to the can amount.

Who is right? (Light hearted!!)

I would have expected 2 as well. A can is 330ml, so a 200ml bottle is a little over half of the can.
It's not the customers fault that the shop has said it's available when it isn't.
You wouldn't accept half a sandwich because the shop has run out of bead, would you?

Supermarkets are horrible for doing this when they make substitutions

I want a takeaway now!

Your friend needs to get a life.

I'd be annoyed if I didn't get a 330ml drink.

A 200ml bottle would be tiny!

What's a smashed burger? Sounds revolting

They're thin burgers - squashed down.

It says 330mL so if they haven’t got cans I’d expect them to give something equivalent or larger.

Smash burgers are amazing - you make them in a ball then smash (aka squish) them in a pan so the edges go all craggly and catch the cheese/sauce.

The bottle is tiny!

I’d expect an equivalent amount of more , so a can or 500ml bottle . 200ml is child size .

If they hadn't got 330ml I'd have expected a 500ml bottle.

Yabu for calling it pop.

Why? Pop is a common name for it where I live! Soda sounds too American to my ears.

Sorry, I’m from the south, it’s fizzy drinks down here.
pop really grates.

Not everyone is from the South, like you.

'Pop' is a perfectly acceptable word for what the OP is describing. You sound like a bit of a snob, tbh.

That's ridiculous! In that scenario, I'd request a refund.

Have send them a message! I wasn't bothered until I posted this but now I've thought about it more, you're absolutely right!

Poor you, not bring from the south.

yes, I’m a snob. Sue me.

I dont call it pop or soda
Fizzy juice where I am

Consodering isdues with suppliers and prices, I would let this slide once. If it's regular, I would let them know the memu needs changing.

That looks like the glass bottle? Never drink fizzy drinks but coke is delicious in the glass bottle.

The fact you've sent the restaurant a message over 130ml worth of 'pop' is tragic. Let it go.

That's not very light hearted! 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️

I wasn't rude or anything but there's nothing wrong with giving polite feedback on an issue. I didn't demand a refund or replacement, just that I was mildly disappointed by getting such a small bottle.

Juice to me is apple or orange or whatever. Fizzy juice sounds a bit gross 🤔😂😂

A 200ml bottle is tiny, I wouldn't be happy with it either.
