*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR COKE ***

In keeping with the recent discussions of Coca Cola and the
differences in sugar contents and types, I recall an article
in a NYCity paper saying that Kosher Coca-Cola and/or Pepsi Cola
was available during Passover (I think it was Pepsi).  The
big difference between the regular and Kosher versions was
sugar was used in the Kosher version versus the 'high fructose...'
in the regular version.  The point of the article was to let the
reader know that Pepsi with sugar was available, that sugar as a
sweetener tastes different from high fructose as sweetener, 
and if this made a difference to the reader, to stock up.
I do remember seeing cans labeled 'Kosher for Passover' two
years ago.  Last year I did not.  I think that currently, cans
of Pepsi do carry the Kosher symbol.

Would someone provide more info on this subject and the impact
of Kosher on the type of sweetener used?
