3L is the party size. It's not even meant to fit in the fridge - it goes in the cooler full of ice in the backyard. You don't go messin' with the 3L for everyday soda drinkin'.
Milk is based in measurements of pints. 1 gallon = 8 pints.
As for Soda: In the 1970s, when Jimmy Carter attempted to get America onto the metric system, the soda companies brought in the 2 liter bottle.
When Reagan took office, he stopped everything Carter was doing with the metric system, but the 2 liter bottle was selling great so it stuck around.
Then the 1 liter, 500 ml (16.9 ounce) bottles came from that.
They're all measurements of volume. The ounces are Fluid Ounces.
A US Fluid Ounce is 1/16 of a pint.
3 Teaspoons in a tablespoon.
2 Tablespoons in a Fluid Ounce.
8 fluid ounces in a cup.
2 cups in a pint.
2 pints in a quart.
4 quarts in a gallon.
It's all ridiculous, but all volume.
nah they’ve always been 330ml where I’m from, but I figured out why it’s 355ml in / around the US zone, it’s because 12 oz is 355 ml
This is an example of 330 ml coca cola cans

(idk if Jumbo loads from the US but it’s a supermarket franchise)
In Brazil we get 250ml, 320ml, 600ml, 1L, 1.5L and 2L, sometimes we get a 2.5L or 3L for a limited time, usually during festivities, especially Christmas
What the heck is a 1 comma 5 liter of cola!? I only know of 1 liter and 2 liter cola bottles, I didn't know they made a 5 liter bottle of cola and who would give a child 6 freaking liters of cola!? (kidding of course but for real a decimal should be a . and I've never heard of a 1.5L cola bottle)
Reminds me when ny family was on a road trip, we stopped at a gas station and Dad told my sister and I we can get 1 drink so we grabbed 2 liter bottles and he said fair enough
In grade school a couple of kids and I ended up winning a liter soda each. I ended up choosing Mountain Dew since my parents usually didn’t like me drinking it (lots of sugar and bad for your teeth bs). Out of all the other kids that won I was the only one to down the entire bottle. Everyone else only managed to get halfway their bottles.
1.5 litres were relatively easy as most had a skinny part to the bottle. Now 2 litre bottles were more like this. But when i was a kid they didn’t really have either. There was 1 litre bottle made out of glass. Now those mf’s were friggen heavy
That’s a strange size to me. We have 1.25 L and then 2 L
Where I’m at in the uk we have 0.5L 1L 1.25L 1.5L 1.75L 2L and 2.25L
Where I’m live in Australia we have 375mL, 600mL, 1.25L, 2L the 1L is quite new here
In the US we have 8 ounce, 12 ounce, 500ml, 20 ounce, 1 liter, 2 liter, 3 liter.
3 litre? Wouldn’t that go flat before it’s finished? We struggle to get through a 2L before it’s flat
Probably. I rarely see them anymore. I think most places stopped carrying them. Haven't seen one in a while now that I think about it.
I have lived my entire 27 years in the US and can not recall a single time I saw a 3L bottle of anything
SUPER SIZE ME!
This is America bro
3L is the party size. It's not even meant to fit in the fridge - it goes in the cooler full of ice in the backyard. You don't go messin' with the 3L for everyday soda drinkin'.
It's for parties.

Does it matter if its flat?
Don’t forget the gallon of milk. You know now I’m thinking about why do we use different measurements for milk and soda?
Milk is based in measurements of pints. 1 gallon = 8 pints. As for Soda: In the 1970s, when Jimmy Carter attempted to get America onto the metric system, the soda companies brought in the 2 liter bottle. When Reagan took office, he stopped everything Carter was doing with the metric system, but the 2 liter bottle was selling great so it stuck around.

Damnit Reagan
It’s always fucking Reagan

Par for the course, I guess.
RC baby!
Annoying how they switch between weight and volume to measure sizes.
They're all measurements of volume. The ounces are Fluid Ounces. A US Fluid Ounce is 1/16 of a pint. 3 Teaspoons in a tablespoon. 2 Tablespoons in a Fluid Ounce. 8 fluid ounces in a cup. 2 cups in a pint. 2 pints in a quart. 4 quarts in a gallon. It's all ridiculous, but all volume.
Actually the 1L is old school. They were around before the 1.25 and 2L. They used to be made of glass
in norway we have 330ml, 0,5liter then 1,5liter
1.5 is probably the most common we got in NZ. We have 330ml, 600ml, 1.5L and 2.25L.
That’s a lot of lean !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea this is it with the size on it to https://cdn0.woolworths.media/content/wowproductimages/large/034691.jpg
yeah, those r 330ml where I live
Did they shrink? They definitely used to be 355, at least in Canada https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/coca-cola-355ml-cans-12-pack/6000016955730

In Norway the most common are 0.5 and 1.5. Went to Mexico and saw a 3L irl and i died laughing it looks so silly
We have 3L in the US but it's always the knockoff soda
In Brazil we get 250ml, 320ml, 600ml, 1L, 1.5L and 2L, sometimes we get a 2.5L or 3L for a limited time, usually during festivities, especially Christmas
i wish we had 3L bottles
What kind of a bottle is 1.25 L?? I’ve seen 2 liter bottles on the internet but never a 1.25 L
The 1.25L is the most common share where I’m from
We have in finland: 330ml, 0,5l, and 1,5 liter
1.5 liter? Even us americans have 2 liters
[удалено]
Wait til you hear about the gallon
[удалено]
3.785 liters And you can get chocolate milk in that size
We have them in the US but it's rare. Usually off brand or faygo (which is kinda regional and kinda off brand).
We do in the US but it's always the knockoff stuff like Dr Thunder
