Coca-Cola has not yet said it would use real cane sugar in regular Coke — even if Trump says the company agreed

The beverage giant has not officially confirmed a recipe change. However, in a Truth Social post on July 16, Trump claimed the company has agreed to use “REAL cane sugar” in its U.S.-sold Coca-Cola drinks.

Zumpano agreed, adding that there is "a little bit more" health risk from high-fructose corn syrup because it is highly processed. She said Coca-Cola, and any other company that may switch from high-fructose corn syrup to cane sugar, could see this as an opportunity to lower the amount of sweetener in its products.
