Comment on Either a grocery store order went wrong or Coca-Cola strikes again

So, the bigger can is watered down? Or is the point that the calorie labels aren’t trustworthy?
What’s this about a grocery order? Powerade??

The volume of the cans are different and the price was $1.25 for the tall one. The shorter one is $1.09.
The calorie thing is another odd one because the tall one says 75g of sugar but the short says 34g.
I know they make different volumes for this so I was thinking it could be a local store order mistake.
The Powerade thing I mention is that they did the same thing 10 years ago (correct me if I’m wrong) where Powerade was 32 oz and changed them to 16 oz but kept them same price.

Right.
The 16oz can says 130 calories.
So we’d expect the 23 oz can to have 190 calories.
But it says 150… so is it watered down?

It appears the ingredients are different between the two cans.
