STORYLINE:
COCA-COLA SAYS IT WILL ADD A CANE-SUGAR VERSION OF ITS TRADEMARK COLA TO ITS U.S. LINEUP THIS FALL.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT COMES DAYS AFTER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP SAID IN A SOCIAL MEDIA POST THAT COCA-COLA HAD AGREED TO USE REAL CANE SUGAR IN ITS FLAGSHIP PRODUCT IN THE U.S. INSTEAD OF HIGH-FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP.
COCA-COLA PRODUCED FOR THE U.S. MARKET IS TYPICALLY SWEETENED WITH CORN SYRUP, WHILE THE COMPANY USES CANE SUGAR IN SOME OTHER COUNTRIES, INCLUDING MEXICO AND VARIOUS EUROPEAN COUNTRIES.
IN THE UNITED STATES, COCA-COLA MADE WITH CANE SUGAR IS COLLOQUIALLY KNOWN AS "MEXICAN COKE" AS IT’S OFTEN IMPORTED FROM THE UNITED STATES’ SOUTHERN NEIGHBOR.
COCA-COLA’S CHAIRMAN AND CEO SAID COKE WILL EXPAND ITS PRODUCT RANGE “TO REFLECT CONSUMER INTEREST.”
IN HIS TRUTH SOCIAL POST, TRUMP SAID "THIS WILL BE A VERY GOOD MOVE BY THEM – YOU’LL SEE, IT’S JUST BETTER!"
