I am not sure about that. Our pop machine at work has it. I'll try to buy one tommorow.
When they discontinued Dr. Pepper Red Fusion I cried. We spent at least a day of trying to make it with the right mixture. Dr. Pepper/Big Red, Dr. Pepper/ fruit juice, Dr. Pepper/grenadine. among others I can't remember. It wasn't the same.
It's still available here... Maybe it's just not a popular seller in your area or something, and they quit stocking it in favor of something else.. Not sure why Taco Bell would quit having it though...
I thought that was the best until I had the baja blast at Taco Hell. I haven't had it in awhile though because a strange thing happens when I eat at Taco bell....My a$$ explodes a half hour later! My wife thinks it has something to do with the fire sauce.

It seems like it's hard to find and everywhere I go I ask why they don't have it. If they do have it, it's only the 20 oz. CVS and Walgreens seem to have it and on sale every once in a while in 2 liters.
well, went to every grocery store in town today, found 2 liters and cans at wal-mart, but no 20 or 24 oz bottles anywhere and Taco Bell says for sure they aren't serving it anymore. I think I'll call the local distributor tomorrow!

Pepsi stopped selling it in England and there is a petition to bring it back so maybe it is a scam to get free advertisement. Maybe they see that england has started a petition and they think they can pull some bottles from the market and judge what would work here. If enough people notice and complain they may pull it here to start some dialog and get free promotion. People may even stock up. I think it is nasty myself though.

I can get it in 20oz CANS!!! It's in some vending machines in Japan for 110 yen (117-120 yen to the dollar on most days)
Wow! I remember the days when 200 Yen to the dollar was on the low side. I think it got up to 260 or 270 when we lived there ('79-'82), but usually averaged 200. Dad was stationed on Kadena AFB.....I'm assuming you're at Camp Butler? I think that was the name of the Marine base.....it's been a long time, so forgive me if I'm wrong. So.....how are things on Okinawa these days? I'd love to go back and visit, but with the security issues I probably wouldn't be allowed on base.

OFFICIALLY, the product is still being sold. I suspect the actual sales volume is low, and the product may be de- emphasized, and may be eventually discontinued. Remember Pepsi blue? CokeC2? New Coke? http://www.mountaindew.com/.../product_info/cr.php
Be sure to check out the Chuck Norris video on MDTV.
