I have never cared for Pepsi. I like Coke better, perhaps for its
sharper flavor. OTOH, Coke must have a high acidic content. We had a number of Coke cans that have developed pin hole leaks and dumped their contents onto the shelf. We now store any Coke only sitting on a half sheet.

I've never seen/heard of that happening - until this post. Certainly
it never happened to me - possibly because Central States Bottling uses
a better grade of can ... or a coated/lined can. Phosphoric acid (the "bite" in Coke) is not especially corrosive to aluminum. Or possibly I never had a leaker because the cans didn't stay on my shelf very long.

I forgot to add that some of those cans had moved with us from our house
to this retirement center apartment. Because of Covid shutdown and
meals being delivered to our apartment, we were getting a surplus of
Coke cans. I think that the cans that sprung a leak might have been a
few years old.

I might also add that there were some cans of Barg's root beer that were
of the same age. None of them ever leaked.
