Sad, sad update...

So my mission for this weekend was to find my favorite drink, Diet Berries and Cream Dr. Pepper in some shape or form. I didn't care if it was a 2 Liter bottle, a 12 pack or a single small bottle of it. I just needed to find it because it has been too long since I've been able to enjoy the best soda in the world. I went to the following places:

2 Publix locations
2 Walgreens
2 Winn Dixie Supermarkets
1 7 Eleven
2 Wal Marts
1 CVS drugstore

Unfortunately, I did not find a single drop of this soda. I did, however, find Dr. Pepper's latest flavor: Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper which up until now I had only heard about. I decided to buy a 12 pack of it because I figured it would be good. Fortunately, before I opened the 12 pack I purchased a small bottle of it so I could try it immediately. Sadly, it was pretty gross. It was so bad that I returned the 12 pack the next day. Thank god that flavor is only Limited Edition because it's quite disgusting.

In the meantime I am still frantically searching for any inventory of this soda that may be left out there so if you've seen it, please e-mail me. Life just isn't the same without it. :(

Mission Impossible?

If you know me you are aware of my love for Diet Dr. Pepper products. I'm a big diet soda freak and my favorite was Diet Dr. Pepper until the release of Diet Berries and Cream Dr. Pepper. It's the greatest soda ever invented (imo) and I usually stock up on it. My addiction is so bad that at work people know I'm there if they see a can of it in the break room. Lately, however, I have been unable to find it anywhere. I wasn't too concerned at first because it had a tendency to sell out but I'd usually find it a couple of days later. It has now been over a month since I've had the pleasure of drinking that delicious drink and I am beginning to worry. My sister who lives in Ohio said that she hasn't seen it in a long time either and brought up the possibility of the dreaded "D" word - discontinued. Is it possible? Could my favorite soda in the whole world have been discontinued? Will Diet Berries and Cream Dr. Pepper become merely a memory? Will I have to add it to my list of favorite things that have been discontinued? (stay tuned for that list)

Well, I am off for the next couple of days so I have decided that my mission this weekend is to find this soda. The last time I went to Walgreens the other day there was still a sign on the cooler with the Berries and Cream label so there's still hope. I refuse to give up. I will go to every Target, Walmart, Publix, and any other place that might have it until I find it. I shall report my findings in a couple of days. Wish me luck!
