Solved! Found inside a value pack of coca cola after emptying all the cans. (UK)

It's red and feels like some kind of tough rubber. The bottom is kind of shaped like a suction cup but it feels like the rubber is too tough to stick. I can only assume its something from whatever they use to fill the cans or something like that.

Solved! Insane. I love it when people just have the object. I didn't even know a grease-separating measuring cup was a thing and then to find out the stopper was just in a random box of Coke

Instructions unclear. I now have a very urethereal feeling…

My guess is it’s from a robotic arm/machinery used to grab the cans and fill the cases after the cans are filled.

It is a separator for a can machine.

Looks to me like like a pig. It goes into the line and pigs the fluid (likely syrup) into whatever tank the line is flowing to. Uses air pressure to force whatever is in front of it forward. So you make a batch of syrup, piping takes it to a large holding tank, and then you would initiate an automatic pig that sends this through the line and forces everything in front of it forward. Helps clean out the lines of good product.

Were we always finding factory parts or is this new, because there's lots of these factory mishaps lately.

That’s a rook. You have to collect the full Coke Set from different boxes. Pepsi is running the same “Chess Set” collectors promo. The Pepsi ones are blue. Queen seems to be the rarest so far.
