As the SaveTaBSoda Committee was taking some time to debrief from a busy 2023 and starting to brainstorm a 2024 full of activities designed to convince the Coca-Cola Company to bring back TaB–we heard some interesting news.
Yesterday, January 17th, Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey, was interviewed on the CNBC Morning show SquawkBox. He was asked about the Coca-Cola brands that had been discontinued, such as Aha! sparkling water, Zico Coconut, and of course TaB soda. His response was interesting in that he addressed TaB drinkers directly. “I still get a lot of lobbying on TaB…so for all the TaB lovers out there, there could be a moment with a special run.”

Here’s our take on his comments:
- It’s exciting to hear the CEO talk about TaB directly, and it does show that our efforts to reach Coca-Cola are paying off. They’re listening to their customers!
- This is by no means a “done deal.” He said there could be a moment for TaB. Let’s see what that means, but in the meantime, make sure you keep letting Coca-Cola know that you would like to have TaB back. Their number is 800.GET.COKE.
We’re cautiously optimistic after hearing this sound byte, and hoping we get a chance to enjoy some TaB in 2024. We hope you’ll continue to follow along with us as we watch and see!

Sounds promising
I’ve been paying $15/can last six months on EBay and the supply is running out
Had to give away about 1200 empties because no stores would rerun the deposits

We are cautiously optimistic about what we heard, but there was not any sort of a guarantee–so we have to keep letting them know how much we want to see it back!

If he’s admitting to a possibility there must be a lot of pressure on him to bring back our TAB. He appears to be an egomaniac and that type of person doesn’t like to admit any mistakes. We have to keep up our calling, emails, letters etc.
We need it back..and permanently..

We like to see the tone has changed. A year ago, there was no possibility of a comeback whatsoever (in the CNN Interview). This time, it’s a possibility. Hopefully next time…it’s a sure thing! Let’s see what happens and we will keep up our efforts to let them know how much we want to see it back!
