Default Cleveland East side

Checked out some East-side Cleveland area stores today, since I was in the area. Found no KFP Coke in any of these stores, but stocked-up on Coke with sucrose, 12Pk fridge packs ($4.49). The 20oz bottles ($1.39) in the cases by the checkout and 2liters are also sucrose, but the 20oz 6packs on the shelf are HFC
Heinen's Mayfield Village 860 SOM Center Road
Heinen's of Willoughby 34501 Ridge Road
Heinen's Pepper Pike 30849 Pine Tree Road

Found 2Liter KFP Pepsi at Heinen's University Heights 2180 South Green Road. These were two single-case stacks beside an endcap at the end of the chip aisle. One stack of regular and one stack of diet. Each stack had a sign above it that said KFP Pepsi and KFP Diet Pepsi ($1.69). The caps are blue. I only grabbed 4 since I prefer Coke. There were about 3 cases of each left.

My wife stopped by Hungarian Kosher Foods in Skokie, IL today (just north of Chicago). This is our usual source for Kosher Coke/Pepsi for the past few years. They don't yet have it on the shelves, but expect to have it within 2 weeks.

Thks for the heads up. A few of my relatives shop there year round.
If Chicago is getting KP soda pop HKF in Skokie will for sure get it.
This store only sells Kosher foods.

Default KFP coke in SE Virginia!!

I finally found a grocery store in Newport News, VA that brought in some KFP Coke this year. Yellow Cap, sucrose on the label, bottled in Atlanta. Finally I get the good stuff! I bought as much as I felt comfortable about, seeing as I am not Jewish.

Picked up some KFP Coke today as well. I'm not Jewish, and only recently did I even hear about this but I had to seek it out. Ended up getting 10 2 liter bottles in a 10/$10 sale at Shaw's in Canton, MA. Haven't yet cracked one, but I will later tonight.

LOL
Enjoying KP Soda pop does not require being Jewish. LOL

I had no problem finding it in 2 liters before, during, and well after passover in Food City here in Knoxville, TN when I looked last year. I may have seen it at other chains but I didn't care as I found it in the first store I looked at and continued to find it at that store for weeks after passover.

I'm sure you could find it in most any city in the top 100 list by population.

Kinda confused what makes a diet coke kosher.. Isn't it just the corn syrup they're replacing with real sugar to kosher-fy it? And if real sugar was in diet, er, it wouldn't be diet? Is aspartame kosher?

Hah, this is boggling my mind. Answer stat please.

The long and the short is that for both KP sugar and KP diet soda pop,
the production line (complete bottling process) has to be cleaned and
inspected by a Rabbi to make sure it is meets the laws of Kashrut for Passover.

The artificial sweetner (aspartame ???) is kosher for passover.

Corn syrup is considered to be a "leavened" food. By the laws of Kashrut
foods (foods that rise) are not KP.

This is a very quick explanation. I may have not gotten some of the details
right. It does give an general over view of KP.
