The situation somewhat echoes what happened in the ’80s, when Coca-Cola introduced a new version of its iconic sip, only to face enormous consumer backlash. That led the company to bring back the old version, dubbed Coca-Cola Classic, which was sold alongside the new Coke. Eventually, the classic Coke won out and new Coke was discontinued.

Coke sweetened with cane sugar.The soda company plans to add a line of cane sugar-sweetened Coke, its chief executive said, after Trump last week said Coca-Cola had agreed to use “REAL Cane Sugar” in the soda.

Coca-Cola said Tuesday it will add a cane-sugar version of its trademark cola to its U.S. lineup this fall, confirming a recent announcement by President Donald Trump.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared that “sugar is poison.” Roughly three months later, Kennedy praised Steak ’n Shake for announcing that the fast-food chain would start offering Coca-Cola with real cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup.

President Donald Trump teased the announcement last week, but the Coca-Cola Co. confirmed it Tuesday: a cane sugar-sweetened version of the beverage maker's trademark soda will be released in the U.S.
