The plea for Tab came across in a message on Facebook.

It was Sept. 27, and Anne White saw a post from a neighbor telling her their local grocery store in Cincinnati had been stripped of the diet soda, last popular in the 1980s and now a cult favorite.

I loved the old version of Herbal Essense shampoo-circa 1970s. Also like Prell from back then. I was a teenager then.

I think there is still RC Cola here in Wisconsin.

I tried Stevia cola but I get watery eyes from it. Must be allergic to some extent.

I confess to liking McD’s diet Coke on my rare trips through the drive thru for grilled chicken and french fries.

One product my husband misses is Rippin’ Good Cookies. Named for Ripon, WI where the factory was. We can’t find their cookies anywhere and we live in WI.

They still make this stuff. But I'm not sure who buys it.

I don’t recall ever having Perrier. I remember when it was first available way back in the day. Who’d have thought back then that selling water in bottles would be such a big business.

I like Diet Sunkist in the 16.9oz bottles.
Can only find it in a few stores and it is not always stocked. When I can I buy 3 or 4 six packs which usually cleans out the store.

As long as you love neurodegenerative diseases at the end of your life, keep drinking that fake sugar.
