Hey, I don't have much to say about where to find Pepsi Vanilla, but what I do have to say is how great it was. I have never been a fan of regular Pepsi, or any Pepsi related product. (except Mt. Dew) But Pepsi Vanilla was absolute bliss. I quit my Mt. Dew drinking habits for it. I can't believe it's nowhere to be found, considering almost every other discontinued soda can be imported from other countries or the rare specialty shops like sodapopstop in CA. (www.sodapopstop.com) And I'm also not sure about the whole "Not enough sales" or whatnot, because from everyone I know, and everyone I've read about (including you) loved it and drank rediculous amounts every day. We alone could make up the sales of at least 10 people a day. I know I'd make about 25. lol :-)

I join you in mourning the loss of my best drinking buddy, pepsi vanilla. Though I'd buy the diet one. I would buy 6-8 12 packs of this at a time, every 2-4 weeks.

So how can they say sales were poor? Obviously they never counted inventory from my state.

But don't give up yet. They said they's stop making pepsi vanilla a couple of years ago. Then all of a sudden, it was available again.

I do add vanilla extract to my diet pepsi now. Not the same. sigh...

"Person Guy" - do you know how much you could have gotten for one of those Pepsi Vanillas? Seriously, I would have paid a ridiculous amount of money for one.I hate you.  :)

Dude, i feel sorry for you. But guess what? i still go to school and my school had a few pepsi vanillas locked away in an abandoned locker room building. They all expired in 2005 and 2006, but they still tasted good. I had the last pepsi vanilla there yesterday from may of 06 and it's like january of 08 now. Oh well for you.

Saw your sad story...and trust me I've had to hear it when they took it off the shelves in Colorado. However, I just ordered some through www.drsoda.com. Hubby likes the diet, but I believe I saw the regular. You can ship it ground, it's more than what you buy, but if you really want it! Ha Ha! Good luck!

Go to google and look up the phone number for Minges Bottling Company in Greenville, NC and ask to speak with Myles Minges or Ty. They own half of all the Pepsi distibutorship in NC and you know Pepsi was born right here in the Carolinas - in New Bern to be exact; some 20 minutes away.

See if they can get a special order shipped to you. Might as well talk to the owners themselves!

Hi Jay,

You can get vanilla syrup in the grocery store, you will find it in the gourmet coffee section. They have a selection of very good ones, a drop or 2 in your Pepsi will take care of your Jones, lol.

Have no fear Jay....you can always get some Pepsi Vanilla lip blam on eBay...LOL...tatse the flavor, but not the calories.

They also have an airplane made out of Pepsi Vanilla cans. You can put in on your desk for you to remember the good times you had with Pepsi Vanilla.....LMAO

Jeff / Teresa - Appreciate the condolences. I will attempt to home-brew some Vanilla Pepsi.

Donny - Interesting. I found Vanilla Coke tasted like feet. (or what I assume feet would taste like). Vanilla Pepsi on the other hand was bliss. And that's a bit odd, because I drink regular Coke and can't stand regular Pepsi.

sKurt - Thanks, I'm actually going to try that Amazon link. I suspect I'll get a note back saying "BACKORDERED, OUT OF STOCK" but it's worth a shot. I tried eBay, but they had nothing (note to Donny, they did have an unopened can of Vanilla Coke (also discontinued) up for bid.)

Perry - keep an eye peeled. Let me know...

JF - Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I suggest hitting the stores NOW. Good luck, be sponge-worthy.

Say it ain't so Jay. I love Vanilla Pepsi. I'm going to have to hit all the supermarkets I can to get the last cases, like Elaine on Seinfeld canvassing to get the Today sponge when it was pulled off the market.

Hi Jay:

Don't despair. I think I can get Pepsi Vanilla in Canada. If I can I will keep you supplied.

Perry

HA! We called Vanilla Coke "Nectar of the gods" and "Sweet Ambrosia". I tried vanilla pepsi and it didn't agree with me. There seemed to be an insane amount of sugar in vanilla coke and caffine. I was wired to the hilt after drinking one can. I stopped driking soda/pop last year. And all beverages with caffine. I can't handle it, I get heart palpatations if I don't drink at regular intervals. So I had to stop.

The funny thing is that I used to drink it in the morning to perk me up. But now that I have stopped I don't feel run down in the morning like I used to when I was needing the caffine jolt.

Yikes! You LIKED vanilla pepsi? I was a big fan of vanilla coke and tried vanilla pepsi. Yikes. Undrinkable. Truely disgusting. I remember it having a metallic taste. Oh, well, diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks. Very funny post BTW. ;)

hey, quit crying...

Amazon still has it for sale..

Take is easy now, you are actually making me cry. Couldn't youjust take some pepsi, add more sweetner and about 1/8th teasp. of vanilla abstract?

Jay - It's time to listen to our better halves. You're gonna have to be a do-it-yourself guy from now on. Carry vanilla extract with you, but it must be the real thing, not artificial. I bet you'll find it's better than nothing.

I'm truly sorry for your loss.

Did Pepsi Max replaced that depression?
