"President Donald Trump said Coca-Cola agreed to use cane sugar in its namesake soda in the U.S., but the beverage giant stopped short of confirming his claim.
"A Coca-Cola spokesperson, when asked about Trump’s post, said the company appreciated the president’s 'enthusiasm for our iconic Coca-Cola brand.' They added that 'more details on new innovative offerings within our Coca-Cola product range will be shared soon.'
"For four decades, Coca-Cola sold in the U.S. has generally been sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup. Coke in some countries, such as Mexico, uses sugar."
Ed. note: There is speculation in the Jewish media that Coke would be kosher for Passover year-round is Passover Coke is made with sugar. This is probably not correct, since Coke contains other ingredients besides the sweetener. .
