A Mexican restaurant near us SELLS COKE MADE WITH REAL SUGAR!!!
#20
What mattkime and guitarist said. Cane is abundant in Latin America, or they would've switched to corn syrup long ago.

>IIRC, it was done to help the farmers who weren't doing so well at the time.

No disrespect, but this is funny. The soft drink industry has never been interested in anything but themselves and their bottom line.

Greg: you're speaking of Tienda Casa Paloma near 83rd and Metcalf, yes? That is a great little joint! One of the owners is from Mexico. Their food is pretty dang tasty as well! Make your way around the menu, lots of interesting flavors.

The only thing I worry about when drinking Latin American [cane] soda is the water. They don't have the same environmental regs that we do, so for me it tends to cancel out any benefit of switching to their soft drinks. Of course, we don't have much room to talk with the use of atrizine, for instance. Sigh. Frustrating.
