BREAKING NEWS Coca-Cola stuns fans with recipe change that Trump declares as 'just better'
Coco-Cola has confirmed that it is changing the recipe for its iconic soda later this year.
The drinks giant will launch a Coca-Cola in the US this fall made with real cane sugar rather than high fructose corn syrup.
Food companies have scrambled to make changes in ingredients and include healthier substitutes amid Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign.
President Trump has also pushed for the change, declaring Coke made with sugar is 'just better.'
'I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so,' Trump wrote on Truth Social last week.
'I'd like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them — You'll see. It's just better!'
The move was confirmed during Coca-Cola's second quarter earnings call on Tuesday morning.
The Atlanta-based company beat expectations benefiting from resilient demand for zero-sugar drinks as well as higher pricing.
Coca-Cola's comparable revenue rose 2.5 percent to $12.62 billion in the three months ended June 27, beating estimates of $12.54 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
