Why stop making it? When I was walking into a store, one of the people that work there was advertising C2 and asked of we would like to try some, we said yes, and he told us where we could get it. But now as I walk through the same store and different ones I can never find it. What ever happened to C2 cokes?

I recall here in South Florida the raving about C2 and how great it tasted and how hard it was for folks to find it at the store. Many gas stations and Publix grocery stores carried only a limited number of the cases. I remember hearing people asking store managers to carry it. Truly I have never seen people ask for a soda so often in my life. It's like a fond memory now that its been years since it was taken off the shelf. I don't think poor sales was the reason it was pulled. It was prob more corporate internal politics that led to it's demise. A shame really since it was the only diet alternative out there that tasted great. I bought cases of the stuff. I love Coke and I felt C2 was smoother to drink.. not so sugary and also was more crisp. I hope they bring it back.

I had been storing them for months buying everything I could get my hands on, but at last my supply ran out about eight months ago. Dark days indeed. I totally agree.

Even if they produced it at only one facility, I would have it shipped(provided it didn't work out too unreasonable). We could receive it at a discounted price, compared to retailers, due to the fact that "Coca Cola" and the retailers would not incur the same shipping, distribution, stocking and advertising charges etc. This in turn would off-set the shipping charges for the individual. Ie. you , me and the rest of the C2 fans. There has got to be a way to let Coke know that the have a market for a product the already own, that is being asked for by name! Any idea how many marketing dollars a feat like that takes? If anyone finds a warehouse stocked with C2 or any other viable options, please get in touch ErichXsv1@hotmail.com Does anyone know who, in particular to get in touch with with regard to this?

If Coke can develop such a wonderful product then one of their competitors should be able to come up with a comparable soda. This link should be sent to all bottlers throughout the country. If Coke thinks their sales are DOWN now, just let us find something on the market we like as well as C2! I loved C2 as well.

Coca-Cola didn’t learn a thing from the "New Coke" debacle. Unfortunately, the Coca-Cola Company, like most American companies, is run with the Dilbert mentality. I'm a loyal Dilbert reader and more often than not I find it rather sadly accurate in it's depiction of corporate life. C2 was the best. Coca-Cola didn’t learn a thing from the “New Coke” debacle.

I didn't read all of the comments but I often follow the weight watchers plan and I was in heaven when C2 came out! It didn't taste like the diet drinks. I refuse to drink a diet coke and I can't drink regular!!!!! It was only 1 pt for the whole thing!!!! Then all of a sudden they were no longer in the stores. I don't understand it! They always looked like they had been shopped. I want my c2 back! I didn’t read all of the comments but I often follow the weight watchers plan and I was in heaven when C2 came out!

C-2 was/is the best "diet" drink ever, and Coke never even knew it. Coke expected it to work without any promotion. Again, just light "Bud Lite", Coke should have named it "Coke LIte".
