We have a lot of questions about the world, and we’re sure you do too.
A lot of questions we have are about Disney, Disney’s history, and how to plan the best trip when everything keeps changing, but do you know what one of our other burning questions is? It’s the same one that haunts a lot of you — why does Coca-Cola taste SO good at McDonald’s? We know it’s silly, but prepare yourselves — we have an ANSWER!
That’s right, friends, McDonald’s has finally OFFICIALLY answered why Coke tastes so good at their restaurants. According to their website, it’s simple, they “follow the guidelines set by Coca-Cola® and take steps to ensure that we serve a high-quality fountain beverage.”
What does that include though? McDonald’s says that one of the keys to proper preparation is that the “water and Coca-Cola® syrup are pre-chilled before entering our fountain dispensers with the ratio of syrup set to allow for ice to melt.” They also keep their fountain beverage machine cold so your drink is always refreshing.
Additionally, they “filter all the water before it enters fountain dispensers,” and their straws play a part in it too! It’s wider than the typical straw, so it allows more of the drink to hit your tastebuds.
Well, there’s a part of us that’s bummed it’s not some sort of magic spell that makes it special, but it’s nice to have an answer to the question! Disney and McDonald’s have quite the history together and continue to partner on lots of Happy Meal toys, so we keep up with all their latest news.
