On Facebook, Mexican Coca-Cola has 31,362 fans. Why? Because according to the ever reliable Wikipedia, "Mexican Coke is sweetened with refined cane sugar rather than the high-fructose corn syrup." But according to a new study from the journal Obesity, investigators found no evidence of sucrose in Mexican Coke, just lots of fructose and glucose. Translation: high-fructose corn syrup has most likely made its way below the border. Looks like we'll just have to wait for kosher Coke to come back to get our fix.
