So- I tried to read an article about what kind of sugar New New New Coke
would be made from- first it sounded like the original- then it sounded like BEET- which I don't want Beet Flavored Coke- and then its only gonna be the original ( which is not the original) but just the classic, So right now- I just don't know yet

Sugar beets are where 55% of America’s granulated sugar comes from.
Thank an American farmer. Mostly in the great northern plains. ** Edited by Stork at 7/15/2026, 2:13:44 PM

Table sugar is beet sugar and not sugar cane?
Stork Stork
Table sugar comes from either beets or cane. They both are the source of
our typical granulated sugar. ** Edited by Stork at 7/15/2026, 2:54:23 PM

I think you're telling a story

Here. We’ll let our government explain it to you.
Really need to get you out more. Our sugar beet farmers need to get their story out better. ** Edited by Stork at 7/15/2026, 3:58:07 PM
