"Are these people still talking about Jeff Epstein real cane sugar in the Coke formula? They’ve been talking about this for years."


Coca-Cola never completely stopped using real sugar cane globally, but the shift from sugar to high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) in the United States began around 1980. By 1984, most U.S. bottlers had fully transitioned to HFCS due to its lower cost and availability, though the exact date varies by region and bottler.

While standard US Coca-Cola has used HFCS since 1984, exceptions exist. Mexican Coke, sweetened with cane sugar, became available in the US in the early 2000s, with Costco offering it by 2005. This version gained a cult following, with consumers noting a perceived better taste, as mentioned in the EarthSky article from 2012.

Additionally, annually during Passover, Coca-Cola produces a limited edition with cane sugar, identifiable by yellow caps, to comply with Jewish dietary laws, as detailed in the Delish article, "People Are Scrambling To Find Coca-Cola Bottles With Yellow Lids—Here's Why" published in 2025.

Internationally, Coca-Cola often uses cane sugar, particularly in markets like Mexico, the UK, and Australia. This contrast highlights regional sweetener policies, with the US (politicians) favoring HFCS due to corn subsidies, while other countries maintain cane sugar for taste or regulatory reasons.

"Hot Rod Lincoln” is a song by American singer-songwriter Charlie Ryan, first released in 1955. It was written as an answer song to Arkie Shibley’s 1950 hit "Hot Rod Race" (US #29). A 1971 version, by country rock band Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen on their album Lost in the Ozone, became the most successful version of “Hot Rod Lincoln”, reaching No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 28 Adult Contemporary, No. 7 in Canada, and was ranked No. 69 on the U.S. Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1972. The song peaked at number 45 in Australia. This version maintained most of the lyrical changes from Johnny Bond’s version but changed them further while maintaining the original story.
