The AC branded ones are flimsy and distort under their own weight. The presentation screams to me that AC was unhappy paying 10 cents for water and paid a team of accountants to find a smaller 7 cent bottle with a 2 cent AC-branded label stuck on.
AC plastic produces less waste you mean?

Also has those bulges on all 4 corners to make them stick less when side-by-side... And, they're square thus take up less space for same volume. I haven't compared nutrition data yet, but I guess that opportunity was unnoticed yesterday. Was more captivated by engine oscillations and other obvious equipment damage.
