Default Diet Tropicana Twister

Haven't seen Diet Tropicana Twister orange in Southern California lately. Does anyone have any idea of how to get this soda back on the market in california. This is one of the best tasting diet orange sodas and would be great if it would be available.

are you serious???? I would have thought Tropicana Twister would have been a more recognizable name, rumor was that it was the same formula anyways.

Hopefully they will do a better job with slice because it was kind of forgotten about the last 5 years or so that it was sold.

We haven't gotten OFFICIAL word that trop is gone BUT all of the new contract planograms do not have any trop in them. Currently we carry strawberry melon, lemonades (pink, yellow and SF) orangeade, peach papaya, and just regular orange twister. I think that they all stink as far as sales go, the only one around here that does ok is the strawberry melon and it isn't even that good of a seller.

I do wish that there would be more SKUs dumped but I do not feel that the ones I have in mind to drop would even be considered higher up the ladder.
