The Coke from the Philippines use real cane sugar, whereas the Coke made in the US use fructose corn syrup.

It definitely came with the rice before you took it home.
Back in the day, you will always see it in the rice in Asia.
I never had any bug with rice purchased when on mainland.
All the rice that I've purchased here got those black bugs the minute I open the sack.
On a related topic, I found that cans of Coke taste diff in Asia.
And sometimes I get batches of Cokes here that taste so weird that I had to discard the rest. (Now I stick with just Pepsi since I have not had this problem with Pepsi.)
I never experienced any bad batches of Cokes on the mainland though.
Weird! ??

Wow. that would explain the diff taste.
You would think the same product has to use same ingredients.
I wonder if there's any special ingredient in the HI coke cuz sometimes they taste worse than diet coke : p

The fountain Cokes in the gas station (on Maka'ala street - can't remember the name) tasted fine.
Are you all talking about the canned Coke?

It was just me talking about canned Coke.
I remember the bad batches had picture of surfboard or sandal and the Halloween coupon for some theme park in Oahu on the cans.

Coke from Mexico also uses real sugar. There was a local taqueria in Calif. we used to eat at just to get the "real" Coke. In a glass bottle, no less.
