“While packaging and food companies work to prevent any interactions, they can occur,” she explained. Aluminum cans, for example, have a polymer lining, and it might absorb some soluble flavor from the soda. When it comes to plastic bottles, a chemical named acetaldehyde can find its way into your drink as well.
And while it might sound alarming, there’s no need to think that it’s harmful. Public health departments track this kind of potential chemical contact. So the only thing we should worry about is the slightly different taste.

What officially is the Big Mac? According to the McDonald’s site, it’s two “100% beef” patties, a special sauce, and a sesame seed bun. It also has “pickles, crisp shredded lettuce, finely chopped onion, and a slice of American cheese.” And while the official photos look quite nice, the burger often looks different in reality.
A McDonald’s spokesperson denies these rumors and told Yahoo News Australia that the size of the burgers has not changed. Interestingly, a former McDonald’s corporate chef went on to TikTok to explain why the Quarter Pounder might have shrunken down. He says it comes down to the fast-food chain giant wanting to cut costs and make the burgers more affordable.

Another way to make the patties cheaper (and possibly smaller) is to reduce the lean-to-fat ratio. “If the fatty beef portions are cheaper than the lean portions, then they can actually make a fattier beef patty still hitting the appropriate weights. But when you cook it, more of that fat is released and you might have a smaller-looking patty,” the former chef Mike Haracz explained.
