What?!!? Why wasn’t I informed of this?? Seriously though, what’s up with that? It costs more, which is why the bottlers don’t use cane sugar anymore. Even *corn syrup* is too pricey these days, so I don’t know what’s next
in the pipeline. So, did your Walmart coke cost more, did they advertise it as such?

It's trucked in from Mexico... the bottler there uses sugar in the recipe. Price was $1.00 for a 12oz (355ml) bottle plus deposit.

The local bottlers don't like Wally doing this, but I guess they do what they want, right?

The taste was wonderful, I could really taste flavors I forgot where there.

I don't know if it's something they carry on a regular basis, but if you shop there you may check it out. I've heard some Mexican markets will import it too.
