Mexican Coke vs American Coke. Which You Prefer?

Nearly 30 years ago, Coca-Cola switched over from sugar to high-fructose corn syrup to sweeten America's beloved carbonated soft drink. With corn subsidized by the government, its sugary syrup became a more affordable option for the beverage company. While this switch went largely unnoticed for quite some time (though it's common knowledge these days), it didn't take place on an international level. Actually, the sweetener used in Coca-Cola varies from country to country based on what ingredient is most affordable for the bottling plant's location. And in many countries, Mexico included, Coke is still made with real sugar. Many people who have tried Mexican Cola said it had a "more real, authentic flavor," though the Coca-Cola company denies that there's a discernible difference between any of their cokes. Personally I prefer Mexican Cola because it has a cleaner, less artificial flavor and sweeter and the whole experience of drinking it out of a glass bottle is better than in a plastic bottle.
