I don't know that it was all that "special". It's a regular item - but, most 
merchants want the lowest possible price on stuff they buy so, naturally they 
peddle the frankenfood HFCS crap to their customers. I learned who his 
customer for the real-deal soda was -- Country Market (the west side version 
of Humphreys). They offer it as "Traditional Coca Cola" with a little 
disclaimer at the bottom of the signage "Sorry, no 7 oz. bottles."

My old drug store, Curry's Family Pharmacy, offers sugared Co'Cola at their 
soda fountain - using a post-mix (traditional) set up. So, you could get 
sugared cherry (or chocolate, vanilla, lemon, etc) Coke there.

Walgreen's has been doing three 12 packs of Coke or Pepsi products for $8/w 
card (their non-card rewards program). There seems to be a Walgreens in nearly 
every neighbourhood in town - with a CVS right across the street - or in the 
next block. I hit 4 different stores in one day, stocking up. All without 
going out of route or making a special effort. I had to quit because I'm out 
of storage room.

 NB> But I might look around to see if anyone locally happens to carry it...

Call (585) 546-3900 Coca-Cola Bottling Corporation 123 Upper Falls Blvd, 
Rochester, NY 14605 and see where the customers to whom they deliver the stuff 
are located.

      Title: Cola-Chipotle Pork Tortas
 Categories: Pork, Vegetables, Citrus, Chilies, Breads
      Yield: 8 servings
 
      1 md Onion; chopped
      3    Canned chipotles in adobo
      1 tb Lime juice
      4 cl Garlic; minced
      1 ts Ground cumin
     12 oz Can cola; NOT DIET
      3 lb Boneless pork shoulder
           - roast
           Salt & ground black pepper
    1/2 c  Mayonnaise
      8    Sandwich rolls or bolillos;
           - split, toasted
           Cebollas Encurtidas (opt)
           +=OR=+
           Thin sliced red onions
           - (opt)
           Sliced avocado
 
  In a blender or food processor combine onion, chipotle
  chile peppers, lime juice, garlic, and cumin. Cover and
  blend or process until smooth, adding as much of the cola
  as needed to make a smooth mixture. Stir in remaining
  cola.
  
  Trim excess fat from meat. Season meat generously with
  salt and pepper. If necessary, cut meat to fit a 3 1/2 to
  4 quart slow cooker. Place meat in slow cooker. Pour cola
  mixture over pork.
  
  Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or
  on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours.
  
  Remove meat from cooker; remove cooking liquid from slow
  cooker and reserve. When meat is cool enough to handle,
  use two forks to shred meat, discarding any fat. Return
  meat to cooker. Skim fat from cooking liquid; transfer 1
  cup cooking liquid to a small saucepan. Bring to boiling.
  Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 8 to 10 minutes or
  until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup. Season to taste with
  salt.
  
  Stir 1 tablespoon reduced cooking liquid into the
  mayonnaise. Spread mayonnaise on cut sides of rolls. Add
  remaining reduced cooking liquid to shredded meat and
  stir to moisten. Use a slotted spoon to remove meat from
  slow cooker; serve on buns topped with Cebollas Encurtidas
  if desired, and sliced avocado.
  
  Makes: 8 servings
