As a Coke (a-Cola) addict from way back when you could still make clothes from pull-tabs (I seriously can't find a good link to an example; ennybody who has one can email me here), let me just say Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease let this happen. Real Cokes with real sugar, which you have to get from a Mexican grocery store now (bought six of them Saturday night), might be returning to their rightful place on your grocer's shelves.
"Years ago, when prices for cane sugar spiked, threatening Big Soda’s profit margins, industry giants like Coca-Cola (KO) and PepsiCo (PEP) switched to high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) as a lower-cost means of sweetening their offerings. While smaller beverage outfits like Jones Soda (JSDA) tout the use of sugar in their pop, the big two have remained steady customers of HFCS. But could cane sugar and soda be ready for a large-scale reunion?"
Let us all pray that this blessed reunion does indeed take place.
