Asked about the switch, a representative for Coca-Cola didn’t explicitly say it would use cane sugar for products in the U.S.

President Donald Trump says that Coca-Cola had agreed to use real cane sugar in its flagship soft drink in the U.S. at his suggestion.

President Trump has a famous affinity for Diet Coke, which uses aspartame, a low-calorie artificial sweetener. He has reinstalled a button on the Oval Office desk that alerts White House staff when he wants a fresh can of Diet Coke.

In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump said he'd made a deal with Coca-Cola to replace corn syrup with real can sugar in its Coke drinks.

Will Coke really follow through with Trump's announcement? And will it make you healthier? The answer isn't terribly surprising.

Democrats and independents say Trump's cuts to Medicaid and wind power, plus a push for cane sugar over corn syrup, are alienating voters in this farm state.

Coca-Cola refused to confirm the president’s claim that he got it to switch to cane sugar. And now it’s defending high-fructose corn syrup.
