Stores stock whatever sells the most. If there's not enough demand for odd soda flavors they're not worth taking up shelf space.

HOW THE FUCK is there THAT MUCH demand for coke and pepsi. Theres always Like two rows dedicated to just coke and pepsi and the three other shitty overly sweet sodas those two monopolies produce and then theres like a few Ginger Ales and then the rest is diet soda. WHO IS DRINKING THIS SHIT. What demand is there seriously how many people actually fucking GENUINELY ENJOY pepsi its so FUCKING boring
I could never imagine buying like one of those giant 2 liter bottles of like, coke zero cherry flavored. seriously who fucking buys that. they deserve to be killed

>>16192942
it annoys me so much because i actually want different flavored things and retarded fat NPC’s are perfectly happy drinking the same 3 trash soda brands for the rest of your life
i cant even imagine like who buys this stuff at the supermarket. why. i only get coke when i go to mcdonalds

>>16192952
the average person who likes soda picks a brand and stays with it until they die (of diabetes)
t. used to be one of those people

cause you're at fucking walmart and not a dedicated candy/soda shop.

>>16192958
There's thousands of sodas out there.
Just order a variety online

It’s mostly marketing my guess

Now that I'm 30, I drink flavoured sparkling water. I prefer the subtly and calories or it.

They are pretty good. No artificial sweeteners or anything.

>HOW THE FUCK is there THAT MUCH demand for coke and pepsi.

They're the two most popular kind of pop in the world. Of course there's that much demand for them.

Who gives a shit about soda

>Why are energy drink brands the only ones making different flavored sodas?
To be fair most of them just outright suck and taste bad.
Say what you want about the Coke company but they got their recipes down to perfection.
I fucking WISH some energy drinks would be as palatable as a coca cola product.
Also fuck soda in general.

>>16192939
more or less every new flavor fails. Every year dozens of new ones are released, some are flash in the pan, others are just shelfwarmers. They invariably get cancelled or the big chains remove them from shelves because of poor performance, nothing really get a chance anymore. Most new products get about 3 months to prove themselves, even if their performance is fair or average it's not good enough, everything that doesn't becoma a big seller gets discontinued.

he never misspelled soda, anon. he said pop, which is the correct one-word synonym for soft drinks.

Americans drink soda like milk or water. They don't see it as an interesting treat once in a while.
