WOW! Thanks joshal1980!

It's really curious that this time in U.S. the name will be written as POWERADE and not POWERade...

No word on regular Coke dropping the word classic, but the Caffeine Free Coke graphics will not be the same as the current graphics. I believe there are two different designs being tested.

You can't always go by what is test marketed though, or plans they have with changing a beverage. In 2006 they wanted to reformulate Coke zero with Splenda for the following year but it never happened. Another example is a Caffeine Free C2 that was test marketed but never was used.

Also Coca-Cola tried slowly removing the word "classic" in 1994 to only one facing and then in 2003 the word "classic" was brought back to facings on both sides of the bottles and cans.

i'm glad they didn't ruin Coke Zero with Splenda. i would've been heartbroken.

i was totally unaware that coke tried removing "classic" before. who knew it'd be such a big deal? i guess some consumers might get confused by it...

Now I know why we have a Vitamin Water sales rally Monday morning.LOL The only thing about new flavors of Vitamin Water is that in half your stores you might only have 1 shelf and you have to make a decision on what 2 flavors to cut out.

I've seen the Dasani in person, and it's an awesome looking bottle, and it could possibly be replacing the Grape, Lemon and Strawberry. They've grown stagnet and just dont do what they used to.

The Dasani bottles are just the new plastic Fuze bottles.

does that mean that any of the vitaminwater flavors are going to be discontinued?
