Why aren't soft drinks made with sugar anymore?!
Why aren't soft drinks made with sugar anymore?
I hate corn syrup, it tastes yucky, and is not good for you. It is especially bad for diabetics. Here in Canada our soft drinks used to be made with real sugar (tasted much nicer!) but Free Trade prevailed and now our soft drinks are made with this evil Corn Syrup. I notice that the US is moving away from TransFats for health reasons. Any chance the US will move away from Corn Syrup for similar reasons?

Here in the US we can still get a "real" Coke by going to a Mexican restaurant or store that sells "Mexican" Coke (bottled in Mexico, imported to the US). See if you can find a place like that near you. Or, you could just move to Baja California....

There is a soft drink called BOYLANS available from the midwest east it is great. I love the grape. this entire line is made with cane sugar.
Corn syrup is dirt cheap, and the soft drink industry does not care what you think of them, they just want your money.
Some beverages still have sugar, such as Jarritos (Mexico).
Well I guess I am not up on my soft drinks really but I was told by my diatition that no soft drink was good for you, no matter the sugar or the cornsyrup or if it was a diet soda, it is all very bad for you in one way or another. I don't drink soft drinks anymore.
