a sad, sad, day

So, I'm back to drinking at least 2 cans of Diet Coke a morning. I decided to go back to the Tab Energy in the AM. I looked at the grocery stores, walmarts, even gas station, and I could not find it anywhere! It is the BEST tasting energy drink around, like a cherry jolly rancher, a stronger cherry 7up! So I go to coke.com and find that it is available all over North America. However, I've been through this with Coke before, and know that it is a regional distribution thing. So I call the local bottling plant. They tell me that the syrup has been discontinued, and there will be NO MORE! A sad, sad, sad day for me. This is the second time Coke has done this to me (Fanta Pink Grapefruit?)!!!!! I guess I will just have to keep with my 2liter a day habit, then and hope that the syrup formula becomes generic! I guess I will just have to troll the online markets looking for some discounted closeouts! RIP Tab Energy, RIP.....
