Reason 2,412: Coke is bringing cane sugar back to Coca Cola!
Not to hijack your thread, but this is HUGE!

Monsanto hardest hit.
The taste difference between high fructose corn syrup and cane sugar is significant.
Here in Texas, I can buy “Mexican Coke”. It comes in a glass bottle and has cane sugar.
I buy it as a treat, not as my regular beverage because it is expensive (Glass costs a lot to ship) and inconvenient. (Glass breaks.)
But a cane sugar Coke in a can! Man, I’m lovin’ it!
For the last decade or 4, I’ve not had more than 1-2 soft drinks per year and most times not even that. Don’t ask me about craft beers though I don’t even do that now.
When I can get some of the new, I’ll definitely try though. My boyhood memories of the 6 oz bottles with condensation running down on a hot summer day—. When we first got picked bottles, we’d bet a nickel to see who had the bottle that came from furthest away; the bottlers had their location cast into the glass.
Back in the 1960s a coke in a glass bottle always seemed to taste better. Maybe it was my imagination.
