Circle K Discontinues "Pink" Sweetener
I like coffee, I like lots of coffee and I actually like Circle K coffee. I always make it the same way with half & half and a couple of pinks.

The past few weeks I have noticed they have been out of pink but had green and yellow...now I don't care what anyone says, I can tell the difference! I asked the ever so helpful cashier what up and was told that they forgot to order it but then I noticed it missing at another store so I wrote corporate. I received an email back telling that the regional manager decided to discontinue it?

I am not sure where this logic comes from as I was under the impression that "pink" sweeteners were the most popular.

This makes as much sense as the time the Taco Bell near us stopped offering "fire" sauce because "the owner doesn't like it.

I told Circle K that the regional manager was a moron and capable of commit depraved sexual acts with cats.

If you don't drink your coffee black, then you're wrong Big Grin

My wife drinks cream and sugar with a dash of coffee. I don't get it.

Aspartame has fallen greatly out of favor over the past couple of decades. So I'm not surprised that they eventually pulled aspartame from their coffee accessories.

Even the diet soda manufacturers have added alternate 0 calorie sodas using other sweeteners like Splenda/sucralose (e.g. Diet Coke = aspartame, while Coke Zero = sucralose)

That's how I drink mine, if available.

Otherwise black.

I prefer mine with cream to take the bitter edge off but can drink it black if necessary. I simply cannot abide by any type of sweetener, though.

Only thing I ever put in my coffee is Bailey’s and/or Jamison.

I'm close to tearing an abdominal muscle. This thread has the makings of an epic rant. Big Grin

A recent stop for coffee with a friend: me, black coffee please, no I don't want anything in it, but the guy behind me will take whatever chemical flavored goodie you wish to push his way...

I lost track at four of the flavored creamer crap he dumped in it. He ain't ever and I mean never welcome in my hunt camp with that stuff!

Correction: if coffee is good black, it's good coffee. Big GrinD

Word.

My girlfriend drinks what amount to slightly caffeinated jugs of hot cocoa. I like yummy things too, but I took a sip of her coffee the other day, and my pancreas started to hurt.

Go for the 16 calories in a packet of real sugar. Tastes better.

Some cream. No sweetener. Although I did have some Sambucca with coffee yesterday.

I’ve cut back but nothing like a good super strong brewed ultra dark roast with a bit of honey and half and half. My in-laws drink it black but it’s so weak it tastes like tea. Her tea is so strong it reminds you of coffee. She should invent a new drink and call it teafee.
