    First major soft drink in a can

    Yes, in a Aluminum can. But the "Cone Top" soda cans were produced at the New York bottling plant in the late 1940's for several soda flavors (I wonder what metal was used? :eek:). It was in 1954, that Royal Crown became the first to sell a soft drink in a flat top aluminum can. :D...
