As are all my friends. Has anybody else compared the list of ingredients on the old and new cans? The ones I looked at, the second ingredient on the old cans is: Sugar and the second ingredient on the new cans is: High Fructose Corn Syrup and/or Sugar or something close to it. Now, maybe this should go to net.rumor or maybe even net.politics, but there is an interesting correlation between the sudden (and evidently unplanned for) change in formula, the sanctions we are putting on the Nicaraguans (note sugar is their second biggest export, after coffee), and the fact that the Contra's politial leader is the former manager of the Coca Cola plant in Managua... I may have voted for the man, but he's messing around with my Coca Cola! I mean, is *NOTHING* sacred? -- Ben Cranston ...{seismo!umcp-cs,ihnp4!rlgvax}!cvl!umd5!zben zben@umd2.ARPA
