Still say the real sugar cola makes a better taste.

Uk coke is real sugar no?

Seeing as the ramen thread is all about packet noodles. I did a ramen thing.

Chashu pork belly (sous vide for 36 hours, then blowtorched to finish) and homemade narutomaki (because who doesn't like rolled up pink slime).

nice

No. Sugar tax reduced the sugar level and added sweetners.

Yeah but packet noodles ;) or did you make them?

Look yummy tho.

Ah- you bellied out, the juxtaposition of that from a flaming hot bowl of water is great

Recent fuckery. Makes no sense in a premium product

No it doesn't. Coke is still just sucrose.

Coke one of few products to just take the hit / charge more for just sugar

Not for regular coke, that's pretty much the last drink with just sugar.

Yeah rio stood strong for a while but also went over last year or so.

I'll never recover from the loss of strawberry ribena

The global coca cola website says "high fructose corn syrup" as the only sugar in regular coke.

Its sucrose in the uk

What countries does that cover? The UK one only says sugar.

Does in sugar tax sense.

Have found a source of sugar only coke but it is imported from Nigeria I think

But sugar tax is for cheap shit that people won't pay extra for. Fentimans was always more expensive, as was san Pellegrino lemonade etc.

Premium drinks manufacturers who didn't have the faith in their own product to carry on charging premium prices are first against the wall in the new world order.

to carry on charging premium prices

Fentiman only went up in price and I bet most people don't notice it so it's more profit for them.

Someone on this forum, who is sensitive to the taste of sweetner disagrees.

Can you provide a link to the ingredients list that shows UK Coca Cola has sweeteners?

Not to argue, but the idea of the sugar tax was to increase taxation to packager/importer. If a producer can make more money they will.

San Pellegrino wasn't a premium drink in Italy. Or did i miss something.

Ha! Ok then.

The dude some many miles back just wanted to cook ham... If you're at a national trust property just ask for tap water

I'll go and look at a bottle.

Funny thing, looking on the internet people say it is cane, others say beet. So they can't agree.

But why would any company pay more tax in making a product and not pass that on to the consumer or even advertise that they still use sugar.
