The classic brown L&P bottle could be on its way out, due to its effect on our recycling system.
Coca-Cola is looking to swap out the brown, and go for clear to make the bottles easier to recycle.
The green Sprite bottles have already been ditched for the same reason.
Hauraki District Mayor Toby Adams told Kate Hawkesby the L&P bottle is a huge tourist attraction in Paeroa.
He says people don't like change, but recycling is important.
Adams says people just need to know the reason behind the switch.
