It is usually triple the price or more. If it is the same as regular cost, I will take 50 cases.  :)
ETA: I am guessing it is not made/bottled in Mexico?
I've seen the yellow caps in all of the regular supermarkets at their regular price including sales.

I thought they were the Mexican Coke but I was mistaken.

Speaking about Betas, I think they are a life lesson for everyone.

Re: KLP Coke.
Used to be that they were only manufactured/sold in areas where observant Jews lived; I don't know if anything changed since. As mentioned they should be the same price as the manufacturer simply replaces it with the regular coke when being sent to places where observant Jews live.
Also as mentioned, sugar coke is available in many places in the world all year round. In IL it always has sugar. (I've noticed a deemphasis on corn syrup here, and wonder if the Misrad Habriut has strongly advised manufacturers not to use it, or if maybe sugar is cheaper than corn syrup here.)

My father used to notice conversations about KLP Coke every year on the Steve Hoffman forums (for mastering engineers).

I don't remember the sugar cokes tasting different than regular. I haven't had it in a long time though

Do a blind taste test

Why do people think they will finally be the one to bring up halacha without it turning into a discussion?

Would it need to have a marking on the bottle? If so, it does not have any.

I think also on Canada. (And probably most places out of the US?)

Not necessarily. Most western European countries coke is ok without a printed hechsher. I happen to know that Mexican coke isn't recommended according to the star k iirc
