Kosher Coke Popular at Passover

Recognized by a distinctive yellow cap, Coca Cola has already begun distributing 2-liter bottles of its kosher formula, which replaces high fructose corn syrup with sugar.

“Kosher Coke” is in stores around the country in advance of the start of Passover on March 29.

Kosher Coke has become popular among lovers of real-sugar sodas. The reason — Coca-Cola uses sugar to sweeten the beverage instead of the usual artificial “super sweetener,” high fructose corn syrup.
