Title: [Canadian please help me] Pepsi Lime
Post by: Trent on Mon, 15 September 2014, 09:19:29
I need a Canadian to confirm this fact.  I've been told that Pepsi lime [regular not diet] is still made and sold in Canada.  Can anyone confirm this?

I know they stopped selling it in the USA, its a discontinued product at least here but I was hoping it is still around somewhere.....  :confused:

I miss this stuff so much, was recently reminded of it.  :p

Well, I'm not Canadian, but Pepsi Lime (and it's Diet variety) are still sold in Canada.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Pepsi_variations

Google is your friend.

I've read the entry, Google'd a lot.  Its Wikipedia.  I came here for an actual confirmation.  Who knows if that is still valid.  Take your sarcasm elsewhere.

I'm surprised (and confused) to see it on shoprite...

Has to be an outdated site.

I've heard that canada still sells French toast crunch too, but I'm yet to find it.

I'll tell my roomy to take a peek for Pepsi lime next grocery store trip. (I'm gone for a few weeks)

I am not legally allowed to buy that so you will need a different Canadian to get that stuff for you.

Ok guys I am going to assume that you are all serious and ask for what you want.
CPT if you want Coffee Crisp, do you want that in the original flavour? Apparently there is a special latte bar, but I will have to confirm
Trent, I am only going to offer you a maximum of 12 cans of Lime Pepsi since I don't have the packaging materials for that (and I also don't know the integrity of the product either)

Does anyone want anything else from Canada?
There is Crunchie, Caramilk, and Mr Big.

NOTE: I do not know if these things will melt when going across the border and I also need to find some place to get these in bulk. Candy bars will most likely not be bubble wrapped, but I can use various cardboard boxes as I have a stupid collection of them.

Lets finalize within the next 48-96 hours.  I'm down for Pepsi and sure I'll trust CPT and get some candy.

That being said I'll offer my proxy services for anything USA based but you guys get all of the fun stuff.

I'm deadly serious that I love Coffee Crisp and would love some. However, Halverson just delivered me a box of them so I'm set for a while. When I run out, I might hit you up. I really appreciate it though. That latte bar sounds nice but I want to try the coffee crisp ice cream :D.

Yah its kinda crazy. a few years ago it was impossible to get ketchup chips in the states. Now they are extremely rare, some stores carry the product.
