Bye bye Vanilla Coke :(

My most favorite caffeinated soda (because Jones sugar free root beer is my favorite non-caffeinated) is being discontinued. The grocery store rarely stocked it to begin with, so I'd stock up when I could. It's apparently not been doing well with the consumers, and will be replaced with Cherry-Vanilla Coke (ew). I'm quite sad... and please don't suggest Pepsi Vanilla because I don't like Pepsi.

I like Vanilla Coke too. I guess I'll have to settle for cherry instead. :/

I wish they'd stop introducing new flavours if they're just going to pull them.

You and Grendel both. And here I thought he was single-handedly keeping the flavor alive. He drinks at least a case a week.

They are discontinuing this and yet keeping that travesty they call Coke with LIME?????

Here's your solution: Buy some regular coke, then head a few rows over to the baking area, pick up some Vanilla Extract, insert small amount of vanilla into your beverage. Bingo, Vanilla Coke.

I personally found it revolting.

Yeah, they used to do that for me at EatnPark. I've been drinking Vanilla Coke for years before they started marketting it.

Yikes. Vanilla Coke was the only flavor I could stomach.
