Default Pepsi Blue where did it go?

Does anyone know what happened to pepsi blue? I know it wasn't that popular but just seemed to disapper. Vanilla coke seems to have done ok but the old pepsi just went.

Might become a collectors item like duff beer.

Pepsi blue i surpose had more of a ginger taste I think i cant really remember. I know they use to have it in at pizza hut and you could buy a slab but not anymore. I see dr pepper at uni in the vending machines.
Pepsi blue was cool because it was blue.

pepsi blue tasted like acid, I'd rather drink... oil.
Vanilla coke is delicous though, tastes better than normal coke :P

I love Vanilla Coke. Now though at my store we don't carry the 600ml bottles of it, only 1.25L and 2L.
I must complain to the Coke rep....

Mate I love my pepsi, but pepsi blue was always just a limited edition like the old strawberry and raspberry and cherry flaovours around years ago.
Dr Pepper I have NEVER seen sell well I worked in over a 8 year period more than 10 different service station sites. You would be lucky to sell all of one slab before it goes out of date, Beat the hell outta me why they persist with the horrid crap!!!!
I must say in all fairness though that Vanilla Coke is smooth and cool and Karma's gunna get ya!!!

Karma, karma, Karma the venigful elephant :

I agree with both those comments 100%.

I hated Dr Pepper too, but the TV ad's were funny.
