I have ranted about this before, but it's been a few years. Coke sucks for not distrubuting this shit in California or anywhere even close. They have no plans to phase it out, so why can't we get it in Cali? I use to work at a liquor store and always harassed the Coke distribution guy who came in a few times a month. Obviously he didn't take my threats seriously. I know I'm not the only ATOT'er who loved this stuff, the one place I could find it in Cali doesn't serve it anymore *FUCK!* we need to start a petition, who's in with me? I know this sounds dumb to some, but I love my Soda, and it's not even like Pepsi or Shasta has a knock off I can substitute.


Also petition #2 is to get the Chili Cheese Burrito back @ Taco Bell, I know TB's in some states still have them. And to make matters worse, the wrappers for some of the items I get there still have the fuckin "Chili Cheese Burrito" stamp on it mocking me.

I didn't realize it WASN'T available here. It used to be...maybe many years ago, I don't remember.

Never remember seeing it, according to the COke delivery person and the sales man both told me I can't get it in Cali from Coke. I asked both if I could special order like 5 cases and they told me it's not in any warehouse out here.

as for this Sun Drop drink, I've never seen it in Cali so I doubt it exists out here? I scour new stores I find for different soft drinks. I will keep my eye open for it though.

I have ordered a few cases from uhhh some other state, use to be a web site that would ship it. Their prices sucked as it was, add in the shipping, well S&H on a case of soda isn't pretty as you can imagine. I think one of the two cases I ordered came out to be like 22 bucks after everything was said and done. After that I got over wanting it and start drinking Sprite haha.

There is a market for it out here I believe, not sure if Ebay would work, but some people would pay the $$$ to have it shipped I'm sure.

That's a pretty thin margin. It isn't cheap to ship a twelve pack if you're not moving a lot of them.

The problem with Mellow Yellow is the stupid name. They need to steal a energy drink name and use it. I hate Vault so long live Mellow Yellow... and change the name.

*Edit*
Mellow Yellow is the Mountain Dew of Coke. If they changed the name and did some marketing, it would be a good seller. I wish they would make some new flavors so I don't have to buy energy drinks that have better tastes than the crap they sell. Regular Coke and Pepsi in a bottle is nasty compared to their fountain drink versions.

I remember when it was released here for a limited time. Don't remember if I ever tried the stuff.

SF is a couple hours from Sacramento, which is an additional couple hours from Reno. Your timetable is way off.
