    White trash me: what’s the issue?

    Science nerd me: that plastic probably was intended for maximum durability, not food safety.

      All those yummy acids chewing away at the bin while you’re drinking it – it’s a plastical experience!

      Same, buddy. We used to do this, except it was three quarters lemonade and a quarter whatever cheap liquor everyone brought. So you’d have whiskey, both light and dark rum, vodka (lots of vodka) tequila, gin if one specific guy showed up… Pretty much anything cheap.

      Trash cans are not safe to drink out of.

        Same. We threw a big college party and made “trashcan punch”. A couple hundred dollars worth of fruit, several big containers of koolaid, everclear, and a garden hose. Everyone was wasted and we still had to pour out over half down the sewer drain the day. Worth it.
