That Time Sudan Threatened America's Soda Supply

Original: That Time Sudan Threatened America’s Soda Supply

Sudan once threatened to cut off exports of gum arabic, a key ingredient in soft drinks produced almost exclusively in the country, putting America's soda supply at risk. The story, tied to past Sudanese political tensions with the United States, is resurfacing as a striking example of how a single commodity from one country can reach into everyday products worldwide.

Why now: Renewed interest in Sudan amid ongoing conflict has revived attention to its historical leverage over global supply chains.
