The following is a statement posted by President Trump on Truth Social on July 17, 2025. 'We have been in negotiations with Coca-Cola to use real cane sugar in Coca-Cola in the United States, and we have come to an agreement,' it reads.
Coca-Cola sold in the United States uses high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) made from corn as a sweetener. On the other hand, Coca-Cola in Mexico, a neighboring country of the United States and known as an enthusiastic Coca-Cola lover , uses 'real sugar' made from sugar cane. There is a clear difference in taste between Coca-Cola in the United States and Mexico, and American mass retailers sometimes sell 'Mexican Coca-Cola' for enthusiasts. The following blog post summarizes the differences between Coca-Cola in the United States and Mexico.

However, Coca-Cola has responded to Fox News' call of HFCS an 'artificial flavor,' saying, 'HFCS is a complicated name, but it's actually just a sweetener made from corn. HFCS is safe, has the same calorie content as table sugar, and is metabolized in the body in a manner similar to table sugar. The American Medical Association (AMA) has acknowledged that HFCS does not pose a higher risk of causing obesity than table sugar or any other sweetener. Coca-Cola branded beverages do not contain any harmful substances.'
The name sounds complex, but high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) – which we use to sweeten some of our beverages – is actually just a sweetener made from corn. It's safe; it has about the same number of calories per serving as table sugar and is metabolized in a similar way by your…
