I am really disappointed in that your Ruby Squirt has been discontinued. Why is it that everytime we something really exceptional it’s discontinued???? I would really ask you guys reconsider on bringing back “The Ruby Squirts”. My whole family is the Pepsi Generation!!!!!!!!!!!!! We hate Coca-Cola. So if your going to take over Cadbury’s formulas,Please, Please bring back Ruby Squirts!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m am not one of those people that have nothing else to do, I am really serious about this.
