    Quite amazing how they have some impressive factories with robots and all and you can still buy a Coke for under 2 bucks.
    Throwback drinks in the states, or the Mexican Coke, is far better than the stuff with HFC's.

    Before you get on my case Bender, I watched a little bit of it, and I will watch the rest later when I get some time and repost.

    Yeah......the Mexican(and other) Coke/Pepsi made from cane is a whole different beast from that made with corn.

    Have to disagree. The only difference I could taste is that the HFC version was slightly "sharper", a little less smooth than the cane sugar version. Besides that they were basically the same.

    Can't tell about Americaz, but here in Uropz German Coke and Russian Coke are 2 things different, apparently ze Germans banned sugar as it being white, hence not multicultural.

    Russian stuff is probably laced with ethanol.

    Pretty sure we're still cokenazis here and use white sugar.

    Glass bottle Coke with pop tops are cane sugar here in Aus, all else is sizzurp. And as noted, taste is night and day.
