I only recently became aware of the HFCS/Sucrose issue (though like the Matrix I knew something was wrong).
So I had to know, and ordered Sucrose Coke & Vanilla Coke via sodafinder.com.
Then by chance I used a coke machine at work that I never use (usually drink Pepsi) and noticed something wonderful -- SUCROSE! By putting 2+2 together I figure that the subsidies on HFCS and tarrifs on sugar are being negated by other demand for corn such as ethanol and the price of sugar is starting to make sense again thus the switch.
I live in NJ and work in Allentown, PA. It appears that the eastern Pennsylvania bottlers have switched to sucrose. In fact if I'm not mistaken, the bottler for this region is in Allentown on route 22. So now I stock up on Coke by work and bring it home. Coke, Cherry Coke, and Vanilla Coke (only some, and only in cans) I have verified use sucrose. Dr. Pepper is still HFCS, as well as other bottlers products that I checked such as RC and Pepsi.
Now I'm on a mission to taste sucrose Pepsi. I guess I can only wait for Passover?
