Coca-Cola will roll out cane sugar Coke in US after Trump push
Coca-Cola has announced its plans to introduce a version of its Coke soft drink sweetened with cane sugar in the United States following pressure from former President Donald Trump. The move comes after Trump, a known Diet Coke enthusiast, criticized the company for using high-fructose corn syrup instead of sugar in its beverages during a recent speech.
The new product, which will be labeled as “Coca-Cola Classic – Sweetened with Cane Sugar,” is set to hit the shelves in select markets next month. Coca-Cola stated that the decision to launch this alternative version of Coke was driven by a desire to cater to consumer preferences and expand its product offerings.
In response to inquiries about the development, a spokesperson for Coca-Cola emphasized that the company values customer feedback and is continuously innovating to meet the changing demands of the market. The spokesperson also noted that the introduction of the cane sugar-sweetened Coke is part of Coca-Cola’s commitment to providing a diverse range of options for consumers.
Critics of the move have raised concerns about the potential impact on the pricing of the new product and questioned whether it will be accessible to all consumers. However, Coca-Cola has reassured that the pricing will be competitive with the current lineup of Coke products.
The decision to roll out cane sugar-sweetened Coke in the US underscores the significance of consumer preferences and the role of influential figures in shaping corporate decisions within the beverage industry.
