Coca-Cola discontinues Vanilla Zero in UK supermarkets
It seems Coca-Cola Vanilla Zero has begun disappearing from shop shelves and won't be returning for now, The Sun has said. The fizzy low-calorie drink is flavoured with the sweet and creamy spice of vanilla and was available to buy in 2-litre and 500ml bottles, as well as 330ml cans. Has Coca-Cola Vanilla Zero been discontinued in the UK? Concerns were raised after someone asked @CocaCola_GB on X: 'Is it true that Coke Zero Vanilla is being discontinued from your range in the UK as supplies are very difficult to find? Signed Coke Zero Vanilla lover!' Over the last few months, many Coca-Cola Vanilla Zero fans have taken to Reddit to share their worries too, as the drink had become 'so hard to find'. This person posted in the r/cocacola subreddit: 'Why is Vanilla coke so hard to find in the uk? 'Even tried ordering it from cocacola's own website only for it to be out of stock. I'm aware some are in stock on amazon, but they aren't in the size I want.' However, one argued this may be because it's 'not produced' in the UK. Discontinued UK Sweets/Chocolates Since arriving in the UK in 2002, this isn't the first time the product has been reportedly discontinued over the years, as it has made multiple reappearances. At the time of writing, a 24 x 330ml pack of Coca-Cola Vanilla Zero is not available to buy at Asda, and Sainsbury's isn't stocking the drink either. Luckily for those wanting to get their hands on the product, some supermarkets, including Tesco and Morrisons, are still selling 2-litre bottles for £2.15. This isn't uncommon to see when an item is axed, as shops try to sell remaining stock before it disappears, The Sun explains. Within the last year, Coca-Cola Vanilla Zero isn't the only flavour to have been axed. Last year, the company was forced to apologise after confirming two drinks had been dropped from its range. Recommended reading: The soft drink giant revealed Coca-Cola Cherry Vanilla and Diet Coke with Splenda were both discontinued in a decision that came as a result of changing "consumer taste preferences". Other discontinued Coca-Cola drinks over the years include Caffeine Free Coca-Cola and Coke II (also known as New Coke). Newsquest has contacted Coca-Cola for comment.

Diet Cherry Coke returns to US with limited edition retro packaging
Fans of Diet Cherry Coke, rejoice. After disappearing from store shelves in 2020, the beloved cherry-flavored version of Diet Coke is making a comeback. The news was first broken by Instagram food influencer Snackolator, who wrote, 'Diet Cherry Coke is returning for a limited time with retro packaging!' The caption added, 'It's been years since the OG Diet Cherry Coke has been out, so I'm really looking forward to getting it again.' A post shared by Snackolator (@snackolator) The soft drink, originally launched in 1985, is expected to return to shelves this summer with packaging inspired by its original 80s look. The relaunch will likely include 20-ounce bottles, 12-packs of 12-ounce cans, and even 24-packs exclusively for Costco members in Canada, according to multiple reports. While Coca-Cola has not yet made an official statement, the buzz online has made fans hopeful. The company recently brought back another vintage flavor from 1905. Last year, Coca-Cola quietly phased out two of its offerings: Coca-Cola Cherry Vanilla and Diet Coke with Splenda. While there was no formal press release, the company did confirm the discontinuation on X (formerly Twitter). 'We decided to discontinue Coca-Cola Cherry Vanilla due to consumers' taste preferences and lifestyles constantly changing,' the company wrote. 'As a Total Beverage Company, we are always searching for ways to evolve our product portfolio to bring consumers the beverages they want.' Back in 2018, Coca-Cola gave the Diet Coke lineup a fresh spin, launching bold new flavors like Feisty Cherry and Ginger Lime to attract a younger crowd. To make room, old favorites like Diet Cherry Coke were pulled from shelves and made available only through Coca-Cola Freestyle machines. Then came the pandemic. With aluminum shortages and supply chain chaos, Coca-Cola was pushed to prioritise top-selling items. The company explained the decision as part of its ongoing strategy to adapt to changing consumer preferences and said it is 'always searching for ways to evolve [its] product portfolio to bring consumers the beverages they want.' On June 5, Coca-Cola Beverages Florida appointed Leroy Yancey, Jr as Vice President of Distribution Operations and James 'Jim' Boyce as Vice President of Manufacturing Operations. A cherry-flavored, low-calorie version of Diet Coke, originally launched in 1985. It was discontinued from stores in 2020, but is making a return for a limited time now with retro packaging. A bolder cherry-flavored Diet Coke launched in 2018, discontinued in 2020 during a product lineup refresh. It offered a bolder cherry taste with a hint of spice.
