Nuka-cola is hard to come by here tho.
I've wondered ... are the bottlecaps radioactive?
How does that work out when you have a pocketful next to your nuts?

You joke, but you can buy it. Jones Soda makes it. That said, it's not worth buying except to keep the bottles as collectibles.

In-game, no they aren't radioactive. Most of the wasteland somehow isn't radioactive enough to set off a gieger counter. Yet a lot of the fresh meat and produce are radioactive. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

I quit drinking soda years ago as I got older and needed to cut shit that was making me fat.
I will (like every other year) occasionally have a Mountain Dew or a Sprite.
Soda is lovely stuff, but its definitely radioactive.
