I'd imagine they've changed the recipe due to the sugar tax.
Since when have admin. ever been allowed to have real human opinions (almost to the point of underdog-libel) on anything?

Wasn't Fanta Orange originally created for Nazi Germany because they couldn't sell Coke there at the time or something?

Yes

[Fanta originated in Germany as a Coca-Cola alternative
in 1940 due to the American trade embargo
of Nazi Germany, which affected the availability
of Coca-Cola ingredients.
Fanta soon dominated the
German market with three million cans sold
in 1943. The current formulation of Fanta
was developed in Italy in 1955.]

Here's Fanta using the stereotype that White people are
all acid heads.

Not one person of colour in this blatantly racist advert from years ago.

Let's get Fanta

[ #Lilt has been cancelled,
because apparently this advert is very racist,
features stereotypes, and is cultural appropriation.

Let me guess, one middle aged, white liberal complained
to @CocaCola
, they panicked, and now Lilt is dead.]

Who has said that they’re offended by lilt? Or are whingey right wingers now going back to find things to concoct false arguments with? That’s their usual tactic when they want to whip up more baseless anger

There’s not one black person who doesn’t feel that the switching in brand is ridiculous. I don’t think anyone of any particular racial group actually complained about Lilt.

Which makes no sense to me because it seems like the only people taking offence to Lilt as a brand are the ones who like to take offence on behalf of black peoples and pretend that they understand racism better than someone who’s actually experienced it.
