I remember how Cokes and Dr. Peppers tasted when I was a kid (in 12oz glass bottles), and they taste nothing like that now. It’s a shame....
Big Lots here sells Cokes made with real cane sugar, imported from Mexico. Mexico does not use corn sweetener because sugar is cheaper. They don’t have a sugar lobby that keeps prices artificially high like we do. If we paid the world price for sugar, Cokes would be a quarter and candy bars would be a dime. Plus, recent studies show that corn sweetener is what makes Americans obese. Our bodies don’t react the same to corn sweetener as they do to pure sugar. Sugar is burned almost immediately for energy, corn sweetener is stored as fat.......
