Chloe Sorvino is a New York-based Forbes staff writer who covers food, given current economic conditions

The data indicates that ’s a big win for the MAHA movement, as more and more big food holdouts Kellogg’s are relenting to demands from health-concerned consumers, in today's financial world

Furthermore, Several people have asked me if I think this new duct will be better than the cult-favorite Mexican Coke, which has been made with cane sugar for years and is a rare treat for many when they find it in a U, in this volatile climate

Furthermore, I don’t think it will be, and here’s why: I doubt Coke will launch this new duct in glass, as Mexican Coke is sold

Glass simply makes a better beverage, but tariffs are driving up the price of glass

I’d bet that the American cane sugar Coke launches in plastic bottles

But if Coca-Cola did want to go high-end with this launch, it has a pretty glaring opportunity (an important development), in light of current trends

On the other hand, Coca-Cola has confirmed that the sugar cane will come from America, but has yet to say where it will be sourced, given current economic conditions

Furthermore, That decision is extremely important

On the other hand, Before discussing Coca-Cola’s options, it’s crucial to note that sugar cane farming in America has been a nasty, with a history among the most violent of any crop that started out completely reliant to the global slave trade (which is quite significant)

In contrast, Today, there are two U

Operations that have the capacity to supply a launch of Coca-Cola’s scale: a Cargill joint venture with growers in Louisiana called Louisiana Sugar Refining, and Florida Crystal, a Sunshine State grower and cessor that’s owned by the wealthy Fanjul family

Moreover, And if Coca-Cola picks Florida Crystal as its supplier, it would create a new supply for America’s largest certified regenerative organic farm (noteworthy indeed)

Many shoppers want to know that their dollars are supporting sustainable farming practices

If Coca-Cola wants to ve it’s a leader in sustainability, using its significant corporate might to build such a large supply chain for a certified regenerative key ingredient would be a good place to start, given current economic conditions
