This is my take on kosher diet coke.

If you read the Cane Sugar Dr. Pepper threads you'll see that in some areas cans are marked "sugar and/or cane syrup". In some cases the bottler switches sweeteners and there is what I'd call friendly contamination. They don't clean the cane sugar out completely when switching from a sugar drink to a corn syrup drink and you get a mix until all the sugar crystals wash away into the new syrup.

I'm assuming the kosher diet coke is in the same thought as "this chocolate is processed in a facility that also processes peanuts".

They are just warning you that some of the other ingredient might make it into what you are consuming.

In the case of diet coke it shouldn't have cane sugar in it but if it does it's still kosher. The kosher label just assures you that it won't have corn syrup not that it won't have sugar.

Oh and from the Diet Coke FAQ

Does Diet Coke contain sugar?
Diet Coke contains 0.1 grams of sugar (carbohydrates), which is derived from the caramel color.

What makes up the fraction of a calorie in Diet Coke?
Aspartame, caramel color and citric acid are all ingredients of Diet Coke.

Components of each of these contribute to the caloric content of Diet Coke.

Why does the label state that Diet Coke contains zero calories?
Because the amount of calories is under five, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires that we round the amount of calories to zero on the Nutrition Facts panel.

For the record I have no factual basis for assuming there might be cane sugar contamination in a diet coke from time to time. It's just an opinion and I might be wrong...

Ah, I see. That clears this up so much. Thank you both!

Recieved this email today from Jungle Jim's in regards to Passover Coke.

"Sorry this year we have none—to the best of my knowledge, CocaCola in Cincinnati does not have any in their warehouse and will not be getting it in."

That's bad news.
At least Jungle Jim's was nice enough to
let you know.

I emailed them a few weeks ago and at that point they had no info on it.

Where is the nearest location to Cincinnati with this in stock?

In the past I always have gotten passover coke at Dorothy lane Market in Oakwood (suburb of Dayton) I will let the board know if I find any there.

I found them this week in Charleston, SC. Bright yellow caps. I think they're from Atlanta.

Found it in Cincinnati today. Tried calling Avari in Blue Ash, a deli that had it last year, and while they aren't carrying it this year, they directed me to the Kroger on Hunt Rd. in Blue Ash. They have a huge Kosher display and had 500-1000 2-liters each of Coke and Diet Coke in the back left corner of the store. Being sold for $1.79 each or $1.59 with a Kroger Plus card. They all have white caps with a KP on them.

By the way, they also had a lot of Mexican sodas, including Coke in the glass bottles in the ethnic section.

thanks for the update, Still waiting on Dorothy lane market up here to get them. Have they ever sold anything other than 2liters in the area?
