I think U.S.A doesn't have a comparative advantage in soft drinks for many reasons. A significant reason would be that sodas can be manufactured much more cheaply in foreign countries. It makes more economic sense for Coca Cola to produce the soft drinks in the countries where they will be sold. This will take advantage of cheaper labor and reduced shipping costs. There are many things that the United States can do that will put more of our natural resources to work in a more efficient manner.

How can a less developed country like Mexico have a comparative advantage relative to the US?

If they can produce something with less opportunity cost than the US. For example (purely academic and theoretical), to produce 1 million dices, Mexico has to give up 500 cars However, in the US, to produce 1 million dices, it has to give up 800 cars (due to different factors of production). Thus, Mexico has a comparative advantages over the US. Nevertheless, it is unlikely that less developed countries can gain comparative advantages over high income countries (except for example: China's sweatshops)
