  1. I recently bought a soft drink at Whole Foods that is made of pure
    cane sugar. Does that mean it is better for one than regular soda or
    is it just a marketing ploy?

  2. Sugar is, by far, the most common pure organic chemical made.

    Chemically speaking there is no difference between sugar derived from
    beets, or cane.

    to answer, this is a marketing ploy. would have bought if the label
    said "pure white sugar"?

  3. cane sugar is sucrose which is composed of two simple
    sugars, glucose and fructose. It means the soda contains
    somewhat less fructose than a soda based on high fructose
    corn syrup. It only matters if you are a cane grower
    or a cane processor. In short, largely a marketing
    ploy. It is still a product that should be avoided for
    regular use.
