One thought I've had is encrypting sequential IDs with DES. The block size is 64 bits which conveniently maps to int types and the token you get is half the size of a UUID.

You might also be able to find Mexican Coke, which is sweetened with cane sugar. I've seen it at regular grocery stores in upstate NY and CT so I imagine it's fairly common. There's a grocery store in Los Angeles with a large collection of
