for Coronas sold in Mexico, the latest packaging iteration to pivot from the plastic six-pack rings long blamed for killing marine life. The stackable cans are called Fit Packs and use zero plastic to screw together. FitPacks can screw up to 10 cans in a stack., federal law requires that plastic rings be degradable, and most manufacturers comply by producing rings that break down after exposure to the sun. But those rings don’t disappear completely, remaining as tiny bits—microplastics—or pieces several centimeters in size, which are still harmful to marine life.
