Cola’s cult following is due to the beverage's cane sugar recipe, which fans say delivers a “completely different" taste, though experts warn it’s not much healthier

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.

President Donald Trump said Wednesday beverage giant Coca-Cola has agreed to use cane sugar in its U.S. drinks.

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.

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.
