They do this for most food products in cans due to the acidity levels, read the book called “rust” by Jonathan waldman
pancreas
also to prevent the drink from tasting like metal

fyi, acid actually opposes rust. corrosion could be the correct word?

RogueEnthusiast
For fuck sake, even metal cans have plastic.
vlab
If they didn't, your drink would taste like aluminum.
MaxouMask
And here I was asking for the can whenever possible to avoid plastic...
TakeAFannyGallop
Why does the bottom not dissolve as well?
pompidasical
Aluminum forms a hard oxide layer when exposed to air. This is what the buffing removed. With it, the can wouldn't have reacted.
Niphanos
I believe the barrier here was actually the paint, including the bottom's clear coat.
It's possible that the coating would have some kind of effect like that, but I'd wager that the oxide layer was the important bit.
juice169
It still has the protective layer
ZacharyDiscordFletcher
i imagine the silvery bits have a clearcoat so unless you hit it with abrassive as well it would not react.
MasterPrime
It's also much thicker.

BPA?????

It's funny people are worried about BPA while consuming an already unhealthy beverage. "BPA?? IN MY SODA??? NOOOO!"

I use it to clean the battery terminals in my car. Eats that corrosion right up.
Save yourself the money and the cleanup of sugar and just used seltzer water. Same acids, no sticky sugar residue.
meh I just use a little, wipe it off w/ a dirty shop rag and move on. I'm not detailing the battery of my old pickup. But thanks for the tip
I admit, not much of a difference on a dirty engine, yeah, but it's great for smaller electronics, like flashlights and remotes.
Laneskydoodlethe2nd
I've always wondered why soda didnt corrode the can inside out. Is it Bpa free plastic?
Nebbo
Nope.
Natem905
Can confirm it is BPA free. I work at the place that makes this coating for these cans
SteveNotSteve
Personally, I like the taste of BPA. When I drink from glass bottles I like to add a little BPA to my drink so it tastes good.
sosyn876
I like Original BPA, but not New BPA. It's terrible!
marsgoose
Nope, none of the drinky cans or food cans use BPA free liners., use the PET or glass bottle if that worries you.
electronicbovine
Of course not. Not to worry though, soda isn't consumed in large quantities world wide.
MommaLocks
Haaaaaa!!
hardytardigrade
The real reason not to worry is that soda is already incredibly unhealthy without the leaching BPA. It's killing you anyway!
It is BPA free

Bpa free products use substitutes, such as bps or bps, that have pretty much the same level of health concerns.

i'd rather use a chemical with known risks then a less known chimerical with unknown risks if an better or equivalent alt is not available
what I mean to say is id rather use bpa as it's been study & we know its risks bps & others have had little study & have unknown risks

DanOrtega
People in Mexico sold you on the streets the sodas on bags and straws for years, because soda came in glass bottles that were "expensive"
I've heard that about Bolivia too. Must be a Latin American thing.
Well, plastics took a while to be the norm for sodas, and you had to leave some money as a guarantee you would return the bottle, 1/2
hence vendors would keep the bottle and serve the soda in bags instead. I believe some places in Africa did this too.
The future is now!

InferiorPants
Pop is a regional term, most of the country says soda. source: Iowan in Maryland.
QtheConqueror
Probably still would become flat, because that vapor pressure would expand the bag.
VodkaReindeer
If it went flat, it would be because the co2 could dissipate through the bag. Not sure how fast that would happen.
Contundo
there is a lot of volume in the bag for the gas to dissipate into. i think it would happen faster than half a bottle stanting up 1/2
since the surface aera is so large in the bag.
GriffinMann41
Yeah, use like a Mason jar or something. They seal, and would probably work perfect. Also makes for a convenient to-go jar of coke

You can use a sneaker. Basically the same as a beaker because they rhyme.
TheManWithTheVan
You can use plastic like the bottle it’s stored in. The acid won’t eat through that. It WILL eat through Aluminum, concrete, and organics.
So wear gloves (latex), safety goggles, and work in a well ventilated area (nasty to breath in).
nissanautismo
Alkaline not acid, will also eat through glass if given enough time.
Also, instead of drain cleaner, you can use concentrated Muratic acid found at most hardware stores. It’s used to clean stained concrete
CidColetti
dc808
I was thinking about this when I read the above comment
It literally says in the video, in super tiny type, do not try this at home. This is a stupidly toxic experiment.
Zigor22
Drain cleaner that melts hair is great for getting rust and stuff off metal parts when u let them soak in it. It gets hot though.
ArcaneM37
Proper PPE would make this perfectly safe. Drain cleaner would not eat through lab glasses or gloves.
Proper PPE makes everything safe, thats what makes it proper. Most people do not have ventilators "at home", so don't try "at home".
zachtidmore
How do you dispose of it, though? People are not responsible enough to no just throw that shiz out
You obviously use it to clean your drain.
Elonth
I fucking hate these bullshit hidden information facebook science videos. They use basic chemistry to frame an anti-engineering mindset
How does this video do that? It was educational and positive. The last line was a positive framing on the information, the rest was neutral.
the inside isn't plastic. Its lacquer that is sprayed before the can is sealed to prevent the aluminum from eroding to acid.
the magnet will collect all the microscopic iron in the cereal through the bag and stick to the magnent and claim its conveyor belt metal
or the video that soaks dead teeth inside coke for 24 hour or separates the coke syrup from the water to scare people with out explaining.
You probable have seen a facebook image where someone grinds up cereal then runs a magnet over the cereal while its in a bag. (1/2)

Yeah that shit has a pH of like 3, it's ridiculously bad for you on top of the fact it's basically pure carbonic acid.

You do realize that stomach ph gets as low as 1 when you're hungry and acid is not generally a problem to your digestive system?
It also doesn't matter which acid, as long as the acid isn't also toxic like HCN or HBr.
Yes... but stomach acid doesn't sear away the enamel on your teeth. Coca Cola does.

If you ever went camping you knew this because you couldn't put coke in those cheap canteens, it would dissolve the inside.

Would you just take a new coke can with you ?
We only had bottles bach then IIRC.
AdmJota
If you've already got a bottle, why do you need a canteen for it?
You couldn't take glass camping.

jazzfactory

chancer888
If the canteen is aluminium would the coke still react? I thought the oxide layer prevents corrosion?
svent
Coke is mildly acidic and eats away that layer afaik.
"mildly acidic".... that's putting it mildly
Coke is extremely acidic by soft drink standards. Half the reason people tell you it cleans corroded battery terminals.
The acidic content triggers your mouth to produce extra saliva, making you feel refreshed and hydrated, but it is countered by tons of sugar
LoverInTheRain
Yep, think Mythbusters did an episodes where coke beats some cleaning products on their job..
In my experience, it's a lot cleaner to just use seltzer water, which is the acidic carbonated water in soda. No sugary mess afterwards.

But Coke comes in bottles. Why not just pour the rum in there?
Technically, I was joking. I ONLY put water in my canteen. However, I found delta’s comment rude or unnecessary, so woo woo.. I add humor!
Fair enough! I’ll grant exceptions wherever alcohol is concerned.

Yeah that shit has a pH of like 3, it's ridiculously bad for you on top of the fact it's basically pure carbonic acid.
pretendjesus9000
You do realize that stomach ph gets as low as 1 when you're hungry and acid is not generally a problem to your digestive system?

It also doesn't matter which acid, as long as the acid isn't also toxic like HCN or HBr.
flavivsaetivs
Yes... but stomach acid doesn't sear away the enamel on your teeth. Coca Cola does.
EvilAbedsBoneSaw
Murder on the teeth though.

Serve with pizza, cheese will act as neutralizer.

There's some very acid-sensitive spots between your lips and your stomach.

You were allowed to drink soda as a kid?
nanyatenyaa
Better than doing coke off a condom.
km9v
That's why your Coke tastes like dick.

Cocacocka ?

You know what dick tastes like?
adventurekitten
Depends on when you grew up. I'll bet they started this in the early 00s

Backstory please
Feminineusername
Aluminum cans are sprayed with a plastic lacquer so that the can doesn't affect the soda. Or else a coke can would have like1week shelf life

Pssst! I think he means the plastic in the can looks like a condom, not that his mother actually gave him coke consoms
Maxgaap
Better than what your mom was drinking from condoms

Wow. The opener thingy in the end was what really got me.
YamatoIouko
Oh, they finally got those spray-on condoms perfected?
Maybemyboyswontknowwhothisis
If you ever went camping you knew this because you couldn't put coke in those cheap canteens, it would dissolve the inside.
dovebair
My dudes, if it can "clean a penny", how does this surprise you!
xenogra
I've been camping easily twice and dod not know this... the world is such a wonderous place
RawDogginChixSince2000Six
I've been camping all my life and have never heard of this. I also dont drink soda... so that's probably why. Water and beer and liquor only
prawnklng
Would you just take a new coke can with you ?
Maybemyboyswontknowwhothisis
We only had bottles bach then IIRC.
AdmJota
If you've already got a bottle, why do you need a canteen for it?
Maybemyboyswontknowwhothisis
You couldn't take glass camping.
AdmJota
Ah, so this was before the 80's?
pennyeater
what, back in the 20's? the 1920s?

I've been camping hundreds of nights....and never once have I put coke in a cheap canteen. I din't know this.
jazzfactory
Only expensive canteens for my come, baby!
chancer888
If the canteen is aluminium would the coke still react? I thought the oxide layer prevents corrosion?
svent
Coke is mildly acidic and eats away that layer afaik.
VodkaReindeer
"mildly acidic".... that's putting it mildly
Niphanos
Coke is extremely acidic by soft drink standards. Half the reason people tell you it cleans corroded battery terminals.
Niphanos
The acidic content triggers your mouth to produce extra saliva, making you feel refreshed and hydrated, but it is countered by tons of sugar
LoverInTheRain
Yep, think Mythbusters did an episodes where coke beats some cleaning products on their job..
Niphanos
In my experience, it's a lot cleaner to just use seltzer water, which is the acidic carbonated water in soda. No sugary mess afterwards.

Who the fuck puts coke in a canteen for camping?

What are you the camping police?
DiracsDelta
With how many children I helped treat for dehydration at summer camp, I might as well be.
MommaLocks
RUM N COKEs Baybay!! But I assume we camp differently ?
AdmJota
But Coke comes in bottles. Why not just pour the rum in there?
MommaLocks
Technically, I was joking. I ONLY put water in my canteen. However, I found delta’s comment rude or unnecessary, so woo woo.. I add humor!
DiracsDelta
Fair enough! I’ll grant exceptions wherever alcohol is concerned.
pennyeater
how in the everlivingfuck isnt the coke ALREADY in a cheap canteen? the CAN stupid
VodkaReindeer
2L bottles are cheaper.
tossabeertoyourwitcher
I can't tell if you need to eat more pennies or less
PopeMegaForce
No one. That’s what they just said.
PopeMegaForce
I’m kidding. I thought it was weird, too.
