    EDIT: This is, in fact, false information! Please refer to @[email protected]’s comment for the facts.

    Mexican coke has been found to have no sugar in it, it also uses High Fructose Corn Syrup.

    Any flavor enhancement over regular coke appears to be placebo, possibly an effect of the glass bottle.

      The paper cited in that video had serious flaws in their methodology.

      A repeat analysis by the same group found that Mexican Coca Cola actually does contain table sugar (sucrose) as well as fructose, whereas American Coca Cola contains no table sugar and more fructose than the Mexican version.
