Hey!

I live in Rhode Island and work in Massachusetts and I am unable to find my Favorite soda-- MELLO YELLO. It is a Coca-Cola product but It is available only in certain areas! Anyone know of where I can scoop up some? Maybe someone has a Coke connection where I could get some shipped to me? Let me know! Thanks!

Now there is an oldie but a goody soft drink. I think I have seen it in several stores here in Austin, Tx Paul. I will look next time I am at the store and pick you up some if they have it. I used to have the same problem with Mr Pibb. In Corpus Christi the Coke company bought the Dr Pepper company and then stopped supplying the area with Mr. Pibb, substituting Dr Pepper instead.

So I know exactly how you feel.

What I'm looking for is Jolt Cola bag-in-the-box syrups. Does anyone know if this has ever been made?

I don't think they would make Jolt in BIB. Wouldn't it eat through the lines?

I personnaly love CHERRY COKE. You may think this is weird cuz you can get it wherever you go, but it's not here in Winnipeg!

We only have Wild Cherry Pepsi, and it's good, but I love Cherry Coke!

My favourite of all soft drinks is Pepsi!

The only theatre Century has with Mello Yellow is in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. So I imagine it is a regional thing... or is it a Central Time Zone sorta thing?

I personally love Cherry ANYTHING, Coke, Pepsi, I'd take Cherry 7up again if they made it.

The one thing they NEEEEEED in a BIB for my theatre and my theatre only, is CREAM SODA. Or if they found a way to give me Chocolate Milk on demand, I'd be happy.

Have y'all heard about the new CARBONATED MILK? It's called Emoo. i kid you not... CARBONATED Milk in a can... supposed to make kids want milk more, and it apparently has a shelf life of 30 days or something.

Carbonated milk doesn't sound that bad. In Japan we have Calpis, a fermented milk drink. Very popular, though overseas it's called Calpico since apparently the original name sounds a bit unappetizing.

The funny thing about cherry coke is that you can fill an entire class with regular coke, then give it the tiniest little spritz you can of cherry coke, and the whole thing will taste like cherry coke.

Mmmm ... the delicious cherry taste of benzaldehyde!

I'm sorry I can't recall the websites, but a couple years ago I was looking around for pop in the old 8oz. glass capped bottles for a cooler I was going to buy. Some companies (Dr. Pepper for sure) would ship cases anywhere in the world. I recall that there was one bottler of Coke that did this, I'm assuming the demand was from diners and nostalgia-type places. I'm sure someone would ship you the stuff, and there must be syrup somewhere. I've never had a pop rep say no.........
