I know you remember this...
Imagine a bottle dipped in a thin layer of styrofoam.
Fucking awesome.
Printed label? That's for pussies.
Print direct to bottle? That's for Corona only.
Printed Styrofoam stubby cooler that comes with the drink? Fuckin' A.

Yep definitely remember (just..) big macs in Styrofoam containers. Dennis Leary
did a song about them.
Definitely don't remember drinks coming in them though.

I recall these bottles, from a long time ago, 40 years? I used to peel half
the styrene off, then wiggle the rest of the styrene down the bottle, then
slammed the bottle into the palm of my hand, forcing the label back up the
bottle and compressing the trapped air, made a huge bang, used to scare my
girlfriend doing that.

I remember those bottles. I also remember when bottles were returned to receive
a small refund of a deposit, 5 cents where I lived, cleaned by the bottling
companies, refilled, and resold. Kids, me among them, would scan roadsides for
bottles people had tossed out to return them to the corner store to buy candy,
snacks, or maybe a fresh bottle of soda with the refunded money.
