4. Yes, a real coke taste so different.
And it must be in a glass bottle.

I just took the coke from the freezer.

3. will you check ingredients to see if it is made with cane sugar or corn syrup?
I bought me what I thought was a mexicoke not too long ago only to learn it had corn syrup not cane sugar.

7. Yummy
It costs a bit more, but it's such a treat. I'm lucky because the Kroger just up the street from me carries it most of the time. :)

9. I'm flying to Cancun on Thursday for vacation.
I should be sure to drink some while I'm there. I can still remember Coke from before they went to HFCS. This was about 1978 or so. I remember the T-Ball moms bringing Coke to the practices. It tasted so good back then...

11. i hate to say it but they all taste the same to me
when in central america and mexico i just stick with beer these days, i guess i don't have that discerning taste bud when it comes to soft drinks, i never even figured out why coke and pepsi were considered to be different flavors much less the subtleties of sugar cane coke versus corn syrup coke

14. I love Mexi-coke.
The difference is really pronounced if you sample them side by side.
