“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. “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!”

President Trump has a famous affinity for Diet Coke, which uses aspartame, a low-calorie artificial sweetener. He has reinstalled a button on the Oval Office desk that alerts White House staff when he wants a fresh can of Diet Coke.

Will Coke really follow through with Trump's announcement? And will it make you healthier? The answer isn't terribly surprising.
