Mexican Coke

Mexican Coca Cola

I'm not a big soft drink drinker. I used to be, but for no special reason, not anymore. I hear that people prefer Coca Cola, bottled in Mexico to the Coca Cola canned in the USA. Mexican Coke cost more, here, of course. Why do we like Mexican Coke? Part of it is probably the glass bottle. All liquid refreshment should come in glass bottles...especially since we have learned how to recycle.

American Coke is sweetened with High Fructose Corn Syrup. In Mexico, they use cane sugar. Sometimes simpler is better. Wait a minute, SUGAR? The stuff is poison, right? No, it's not. It's a natural sweetener. Like your mother used to say..."Don't overdo it!"
