President Trump mentioned that Coca-Cola might switch to cane sugar for its U.S. soft drinks, aligning with practices in countries like Mexico. This switch would shift away from high-fructose corn syrup, impacting U.S. corn farmers who supply artificial sweeteners. Despite Trump's enthusiasm, Coca-Cola has not officially confirmed any such change. The company has been importing Mexican Coke since 2005, showing a preference for cane sugar among U.S. consumers. Replacing high fructose corn syrup could threaten American manufacturing jobs without providing substantial nutritional advantages.
