Today [[Cuba]] and [[North Korea]] are the only countries, where Coca-Cola does not exist. In Cuba, Coca-Cola is only sold to foreigners in the hotels and is forbidden for consumption by the average Cuban. In Cuba, where American distribution of the product is banned due to that country's embargo on Cuba, it is imported by way of Panama and Mexico, but Communist party members like [[Che Guevara]] and [[Fidel Castro]], despite being against [[capitalism]], have pictures of them consuming this beverage that the average Cuban could not consume because it was claimed by the Communist leadership to be an "imperialist" beverage.
In 2021, Coca-Cola received widespread criticism from conservatives for telling people to "be less white"<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2x_ovDsa3Y Consumers Research]</ref> and for opposing the George voter ID law, with many boycotting the company's products in response.
