As Psycho said above, its made in Mexico, and lots of Mexican grocers have it. Also Costco stocks it from time to time at a really cheap price(where i get it). Like 85 cents per 16ounce bottle if you buy it in a 24pack. I have also heard that a few other countries coke bottling plants use real sugar as well. I know that is how it was in Japan for decades when they did not allow fructose corn syrup to be used. But that may have changed since they lifted the ban on it :(-

It can be cheaper than HFCS Coke because Coke from Mexico is made with mexican sugar, as opposed to other sweeteners.

Mexican beverages with mexican sugar are exempt from taxes.
When I go to the convenience store here where I live, a 500 mL bottle costs about $0.70. Cheaper if it comes from Poland.
When I read this article title, I though kosher Coke was just an israeli answer to kosher extacy.
