Pepsi is ditching high fructose corn syrup for a new beverage in the UK called Pepsi Raw. Instead the soft drink will be flavored with cane sugar.
From the UK Metro:
"...Pepsi Raw has only natural ingredients including apple extract, plain caramel colouring, coffee leaf, tantaric acid from grapes, gum arabic from acacia trees, cane sugar and sparkling water."
I'm too young to remember when cane sugar was used in soft drinks instead of high fructose corn syrup, but I know that Mexican and Passover Coke have very devoted following due to their continued use of cane sugar. I like the taste of the current Coke and Pepsi just fine, but would definitely give something different a try. I think it's important to have choices when it comes to soft drinks (and most things in life). So whether it's sweetened with cane sugar, high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, sucralose, saccharin, or what have you, it's all good!
