Someone aware of my obsession with finding Coke made with sugar was kind enough to bring me back a couple of bottles from the Dominican Republic. We set up a blind taste test, and here are the shocking results:
Favorite: Good old U.S. high fructose corn syrup Coca-Cola
Runner-up: Meijer brand cola
"Tastes like it's generic": Pepsi
"Whatever that is, I don't like it": Coke made using sugar in the D.R.
Fascinating, folks. The real deal had an off-putting citrus-like quality. So, I guess sugar cola isn't all they say it is. Either that, or the corn lobby has me conviced that their product is the real thing.
