I recently had lunch at Applebee’s, one of my favorite restaurants.  When they asked me what I wanted to drink, I told them Diet Pepsi.  (They don’t carry Coke products.)  They told me that they were all out of soft drinks.

No diet cola??!!!!!  I was planning on a junk food meal with a burger, fries and a diet cola.  But, when they told be that they were out of cola, I opted for soup and and a salad.  I purchased my Diet Coke at Menard’s.  (A regional lumber/hardware chain.)

It sounds really really strange to be out of ALL soft drinks.  I suspect that this Applebee’s is going out of business.
