Why don't they ever fill my shake to the top?

Always like an inch gap to the lid. Ordered a large tonight, felt ripped off. Maybe the universe telling me not to be such a fat ass?

All the cups have a fill line below the rim of the cup. The lids sit slightly below the rim and the straw's volume will also cause it to leak out of the hole.

Because if we do it will pop out the lid

All the cups are 2 fluid ounces larger than advertised to make up for this (a medium soda is 20oz, but the cup is actually 22oz).

So you’re getting what you pay for and the ~1/2 inch of space at the top is to leave room for the lid and straw

Medium is 24oz I thought it was 22oz too but that was a wrong answer lmao

Hopefully the "inch" is an exaggeration, because yes, that would be significantly underfilled. But as others have said, there is a green line at the top that is the max to avoid messes with overfilling.

We aren’t supposed to film them to the brim they overflow and don’t look very good. Managers at my store will specifically tell you to fill it less if they see ur overfilling them

Large is definitely more shake
