00:00This is a very ominous looking because of the red button.
00:03You might wonder what this button does.
00:05Past U.S. presidents had this exact same button for multiple purposes.
00:09A butler, a coffee, even a cup of tea.
00:12Trump's button is for Diet Cokes.
00:14Trump's love for Coca-Cola influenced the company's decision to use cane sugar instead of corn syrup in a new drink.
00:20Food and beverage companies are increasingly looking to include healthier substitutes as they respond to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again campaign.
00:29Coca-Cola already sells Coke made with cane sugar in other markets, including Mexico.
00:33And some U.S. grocery stores carry glass bottles with cane sugar labeled Mexican Coke.
00:38This will be a very good move by them.
00:40You will see, it's just better, Trump wrote on social media last week.
00:43The U.S. president had previously raised the issue with the company's CEO in January,
00:47and surprised many when he announced on Truth Social last week that the company had agreed to use real cane sugar.
00:53So soon enough, you'll be able to purchase the renewed Coca-Cola.
00:56But the real question is, will Donald Trump get an upgrade on his button before they hit stores,
01:01or will he wait like the rest of us?
