Coca-Cola's new bottle lids are 'annoying' fizzy drink fans

Coca-Cola has made a big change to its bottles to be more environmentally friendly - but not everyone is happy about it. The move to attached caps began in the summer and is intended to boost recycling and prevent litter.

However some fizzy drinks fans have complained that the decision makes it harder for them to enjoy their favourite carbonated beverage from the bottle. The new attached caps are on the company's entire range, including bottles of Fanta, Coca-Cola Zero and Diet Coke.

Coca-Cola has advertised the change on social media, saying on Twitter: "Our new attached caps make it easier to collect and recycle the whole package. Simply keep the cap attached and recycle together." - but many followers seemed unimpressed.
