Coca-Cola adding cane sugar option

Starting this fall, consumers in the U.S. will have the option to buy Coca-Cola sweetened with domestic cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. Some Nutritionist have indicated switching from high-fructose corn syrup to cane sugar is not likely to “change anybody’s health. Food and beverage industries started to use corn syrup in the U.S. in the past because of costs. It is cheaper than sugar. A switch by Coca-Cola from high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) to cane sugar could negatively impact corn prices, potentially lowering them by 15 to 34 cents per bushel
