Coca-Cola has not confirmed or denied plans to switch to cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup in its U.S. products. President Donald Trump announced this potential change, stating it would be a beneficial move. Trump has been advocating for the use of real cane sugar, emphasizing its superiority. While Coca-Cola acknowledged Trump's enthusiasm, the company plans to share more details about new products soon. Critics, including health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., have previously condemned the use of high-fructose corn syrup for its health risks.
"I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so. I'd like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them. You'll see. It's just better!"
"High-fructose corn syrup, which is derived from corn starch, is favoured by many US manufacturers because it is cheaper than sugar, in part due to government subsidies for corn and tariffs on sugar imports."
