“Coca-Cola Co. on Tuesday said it plans to launch a new Coke product this fall made with U.S. cane sugar,” Axios reports.
“The move is a response to President Trump’s statement last week that the company would use sugar, rather than high fructose corn syrup, in its sodas.”
“That announcement, which took most people by surprise, led to confusion about the company’s plans, with farm groups warning a full switch away from corn syrup could cost thousands of jobs.”
