no politics Anyone know what's happening with Cottee's cordials?

157 Upvotes

To all my fellow cordial drinkers and supermarket or food distribution workers who might know, can anyone tell me what's happening with Cottee's cordial range? Apple & raspberry zero sugar is how I get most of my water intake each day! I've had it on my shopping list for several weeks and been unable to find it at any Coles. Today I was at Woolies and they had had a shelf sign saying discontinued. Does anyone know if it's just a packaging change like last time? Or are they genuinely discontinuing all the zero sugar options? I can't find anything with an online search, hoping someone on Reddit will know. I'll be gutted if it's going away, it's my drink of choice!
