Coke/Sprite WITHOUT HFCS!!

[wowsmom]

If you have a whole foods, they have their own brand of soda that always is hfcs free. It's really good too. It's been awhile since I bought it but it comes in cans and used to be less then a buck a can but I'm sure that's changed some.

I love the 365 brand Key Lime soda and their root beer is pretty good too, but I don't like their cola at all...to me, it has a licorice aftertaste. DH likes it, though.

I just read somewhere that Pepsi is going to make a line of "retro" drinks beginning in mid April to include Pepsi and Mountain Dew that are made with sugar instead of HFCS. They will be available for about a 2 month time limit and will be marked "throwback".

I have been buying it in a two pack at BJ's wholesale club, it is 2-44 oz bottles. The price is okay, much cheaper than the smaller bottles I was getting at Walmart and Publix. I think they average out to $3 and some change.

I am a big fan of the Whole Foods colas, they don't taste just like Coke, but I like them better and DS6 hasn't really noticed a difference (DH however prefers Coke or Pepsi ).

Thanks for the info on the organic Heinz. We only have memberships to Costco and Sam's Club. We haven't been to either one in a couple of months, but will probably be heading there within the next week to get some stuff. I'll look for it there. If nothing else, I think my in-laws have a BJ's membership - I can ask them to pick it up for me.

Cool. I'm going to have to start keeping my eye out. I never knew that the yellow caps meant what they did. Thanks.

Diet Coke with aspartame, is the best!! Nice crisp, cold, bubbly coke. Clears my throat in the morning, so I can breathe easy all day.

Diet Pepsi is to weak and too sickly sweet.

I get my Heinz organic at Sams Club! Also the large 2-pack.

Wow, you really do learn something new everyday. I never knew that Coke had a HFCS free version at all.

This comes out every year (at least where I have always lived) for Passover. Kosher for Passover products have to be corn free.

I wish Coke would manufacture their coke products this way all the time.

I have stopped buying tons of brand name items that contain HFCS and anything that has Partially hydrogenated (trans fats). My kids haven't eaten an oreo in 2 years!! I started buying and paying through the nose for organic snacks for my kids.
