Wrote to Tropicana about their Sanguinello (blood orange) juice ending production. I got the following back:

So in other words, I have to pay almost £1 more for exactly the same product - they haven't stopped making it. They've "relaunched" it and asked much more money for it. Stupid thing is that I would get them from Tesco or Asda, 3 for £5 or something like that. I'd usually buy two of the Sanguinello and one normal juice but now I'm unlikely to buy any as a) it's too expensive, and b) Asda and Tesco don't stock the "Gold Label" range.
Trivial perhaps but I really enjoyed some blood orange juice in the mornings
Thanks very much Tropicana - cynical money grubbers
