Zap,
As of last Saturday I did not see any KP Coke at my local Jewel Osco.
Granted this store had a very poor KP food section. I'm guessing that this week the "high Jewish population stores" will have KP Coke. As for KP Pepsi,I do not think the Chicago North Shore Jewels will have it.

I suspect that the Jewel-Osco will have it again this year. Have you found KP Coke yet?

Have you _ever_ found Kosher Coke in Milwaukee in the past? Or should we also just make plans to go to Chicago?
I've done the Google searches for kosher coke / jewish grocery stores in milwaukee, which brought us nothing. We did drive by this place: Kosher Meat Klub Supermarket - 4731 W Burleigh (so says Yahoo) - but it was closed at the time, being a Saturday, and there is no way to tell if they also have soda.
I never thought of Jewel as an option! We have a Jewel nearby - though it might be one of the ones that's been sold - but I won't get too hopeful. I don't actually know what our population consists of right here, but it's probably mostly German/Polish.
So where in Chicago do you generally go to find it?

I would call that store that you drove by last Saturday.
I have a gut feeling (LOL) that this store will have KP Coke and or
know where to steer year to a few stores.
If you take a road trip to Chicago, visit the following area's
Jewel and Dominicks:
Deer Field
Buffalo Grove
Northbrook
Highland Park
Good Luck

SuzyB,
I actually moved to Milwaukee this past fall, so I haven't looked in the city before. When I lived in Cincinnati, OH and Columbus, OH I always was able to find some. Don't forget about KP Dr. Brown's Cream and Black Cherry - so good!
The major draw to Chicago is that CRC produces the KP Coke in CANS which last most of the year vs the bottles that like to go flat quickly and have 3 mo shelf life. Being so close here in Milwaukee, I would not be surprised if they "import" KP soda from Chicago, and possibly even cans. A Kosher grocery in Cincinnati actually got some products all the way from NYC (including soda in cans)! I paid about $4-5 per 6 pack of cans for Coke and 7up there.
Last year during my trips through Chicago (family and friends here in MKE so we go back and forth through Chicago often) I got the 6 packs for $2.25 each, a steal for what they are. At any rate, I'd check that Kosher market (I may as well!) Do report back what you find out. I actually am finishing the last few cans from last year's stash... oh what the heck, here it is for old time's sake, LOL. Some of the 2005 7up was still around. And yes, EVERYTHING pictured is cane sugar (most of it KP soda)

What store in Cincy?
Thanks for the picture. Just curious what stores did you find the passover coke in cincinnati and columbus. I discovered Jungle Jims for the Mexican coke but have yet to come across any of the passover cans and 2liters. Thanks.

You're right, it couldn't hurt; and maybe we can even manage to get down there during the week. Oh, for a Teleport No-Error!
Thanks for the store locations!
As for you, Sir Zap, that picture is the most stunning thing I've seen to date. I want.
