Thanks. I never knew they had so many brands. I used to buy Oasis which I never knew was a Coke brand.
I haven't seen a can of Tab since childhood.
And "British coffeehouse chain" (as described by Wiki, because I had to double check) Costa Coffee is a Coke subsidiary. They're on every high street (main street) and I'm thinking not many of us knew it was Coke's, bought up in 2019 for about £4 billion. Branches all over Europe as well as Saudi Arabia, India, China, Cambodia, Philippines, Qatar, Kuwait, UAE and more, but not in North, South or Central America.
It's interesting what you can learn about a shop in your streets that you just assumed, because it's not McD's or KFC, was one of about a hundred in your country. Then you learn it's in a lot of the world's countries and is owned by Coca-Cola.
I gotta start looking at the streets differently.

The Odwalla cancellation is a shame. I really liked those.

Wow, I had no idea that they were that far reaching.
Like Stagg, I didn't even know that TAB was still in production. TAB was the go-to sugar/caffeine drink, when I was in college, and we were pulling all-nighters, during finals. I graduated in 1968! At least I knew that it was a Coca-Cola product.
By stark comparison, I had no idea that CC had purchased Odwalla. And, I was drinking their juices/blends, until about two months ago, when they went out of business.
Read the fine-print.

If I ever buy Coke, it's Mexican Coke.

They sell Mexican Coke in California, too. I'm not a big soft-drink enthusiast, but I have purchased Mexican Coke a few times.

Tab was was the granddaddy soda of diet pops. I recall it was bitter as a child.

I'm pissed they're cancelling Tab. Ducking falicious.
Most of the things they are cancelling I couldn't care less about.
I cried when they discontinued diet coke with lemon. No matter how much lemon I put in, I can't ever recreate it.
