    Poor it along the side of the glass, you animal.

      Yes, however the (oh god no! I’m being that guy!!) pouring it into the glass even carefully down the side loses the carbonation that “makes” the mentos and coke work. You really can only do it from in the bottle

        Really? Are you sure it’s not just the shape of the bottle vs a glass? I’m not super familiar with the reaction, myself. Never heard about it not working in a glass.

          You need to drop the mentos in pretty quickly after opening the soda, because even the loss of pressure reduces the reaction fast
