There is absolutely a conspiracy surrounding this topic! I am a Field Marketing Coordinator for a large chain gas station/ convenience store, we have stores in the midwest, east coast, and we are getting ready to open many in the southwest within the year.
When I started here, we had 3 sizes of fountain drinks, the largest was a 32oz...not long after the large size went up to 44oz...a few years later it went up again to 52oz...and now, currently our largest size is 64oz.
A couple months ago, just out of curiosity, I called our fountain cup supplier (this company supplies most fast food and convenience stores) and asked if they had any larger cup sizes available...turns out, they do, there are 72oz and 84oz cups!!
We are being fattened up for some reason, and its NOT due to demand, In my time, I have never once heard anyone complain that our 64oz fountain cups are too small and they would like something larger.

True. I worked at Carl’s Jr. for a month. The drink sizes were double what they were labeled as. The kid’s drink was essentially a small, a small was a medium, a medium was a large, and a large was an extra large.
Like why would you want so much soda?

Whats really strange about the size increase, for the most part, the price has remained about the same!
We usually always have a sale going on, where ALL fountain drinks are 99 cents (no matter what size you get)...its pretty easy to guess which size most people go for!
