Coca-cola imports from Mexico Fanta made with sugar cane and sells it in Home Depot specifically to target Mexicans in America. I need to know if this is racist because racial profiling or if its racist because cultural appropriation.

I'll say this... I live in the Caribbean where Coke is made with cane sugar instead of HFCS and it takes me back to my childhood. Only in returnable bottles too.
It's listed as Mexican Coke in pretty much every inventory system, there's a starter.
I worked at Coke when they started this nonsense. They were explicitly targeting Mexicans in America with the initiative. They rolled it out in grocery stores and specifically Home Depot. Why Home Depot I wonder...
Lolwut.
Mexican coke/fanta is popular all over the south because it tastes way better, and Mexicans rejected the corn syrup bullshit.
Sure, it has become popular with other groups since then. But that's my dilemma.
