      I see them at dollar stores. They were way more common when I was a kid. Seeing them now I forget how big they are. I think they became less common because they don't usually fit in the door shelf of most fridges and a lot of people put their bottled sodas there

    The fact Coca-Cola has that exclusive right to the coca leaves really says a lot about the power of their lobby.
    Also, while aspartame may not be cancerous, artificial sweeteners have been linked to a host of other health problems including, as counterintuitive as it sounds, diabetes and weight gain

    I'm in Arizona and Mexican Coke is my favorite and getting harder to find. So, I'm walking around the store asking employees if they have any 'Mexican coke'. It usually takes them a few seconds to process that asking for the drink. I've never had them say 'Sure!' and whip out a bag 🤣.

    Mexican coke is the best! Love it with the cane sugar--good balance between carbonation and sugar. I'll pay extra for the Mexican coke. Next favorite coke is McDonald's because they have a perfect balance between carbonation and sweet. A good coke has to have a good bite.

A lot of stores where I work have them, but I live and work in an area with a large Mexican population. Central Market in other states may carry them. They are in a tall, class bottle. They use pure cane sugar instead of corn syrup, and the are the perfect mixture of sugar and carbonation.

    I'm an America who doesn't coffee nor tea, but I love regular Coke. I used drink a lot of coke, but I no longer do so. Many years ago I moved to Mexico for a couple of years. While living there, my coca cola consumption doubled. I couldn't figure out way until I found out the Coke bottled in Mexico used cane sugar. I love Mexican coke, but it is double the price for a smaller bottle here in Florida. If I lived on the Mexican border, I would cross the border once a month and stock up with many bottles of Mexican coke.

    I as rarely as I can drink Coke. But I remember in the 80's when they started switching from real sugar to HFCS. I also remember exchangeable glass bottles you took back to the drive thru. Awhile back Pepsi started doing Real Sugar releases and Pepsi is far superior I think with real sugar, and tastes more like I remember as a kid. Mountain Dew Real Sugar oddly tastes worse.
