Coca-Cola has introduced a new smart way to package their cans and we couldn’t be more glad. After years and years of roasts and a pandemic, it seems they have finally knocked some sense into their packaging head (is there any?). Here’s what they’ve done:

The Cans Come Sealed Now

Now the cans come sealed! People are sharing this picture of the new Coca-Cola cans packaging and people were crazy over it. The cans have a seal on top of their rim which can be peeled back to reveal the rim. Unfortunately, this appears to be in a Middle Eastern company for now.

This is how the long-awaited-for packaging looks in real life:

What Does This Do?

Have you ever been shamed by family or friends for drinking straight from the can when you ordered a fizzy drink? However, at the moment we undermine or rather ignore the health hazard and the fact that they are right. Most places serve cans and there’s no better way to enjoy the drink than have it straight from the can.

However, why had Coca-Cola not thought about this all this time? That the top of cans can be covered! With the top being covered, essentially, the place where you drink it from is clean. This means you will not be consuming the germs of whoever held the cans or wherever they stored them.

Has The Pandemic Prompted This?

The pandemic has taught us many lessons on cleanliness and protection from germs. Could it be that this packaging which has finally come about is due to the pandemic? Though there hasn’t been any report on the transmission of coronavirus through ingestion, many refuse to get bottles now. It means they can come with the germ on it which you can get on your hands.

Though this new packaging will protect many from ingesting germs, we doubt it’ll do anything to keep corona at bay.

When Will It Come To Pakistan?

So far, Coca-Cola Pakistan has been tagged and asked to look into this. If this has started in foreign countries, it may trickle down to us soon enough. We are just as excited as you to have this packaging come to us. No more roasts for you and a lot more coke cans!
