I could take this stuff intravenously. What happened to it? In the 1970s you could find it up here in Canada... now... only a bunch of shitty fruit drinks under the FANTA banner.
Here & there I see a fruit-bent "cream soda", but methinks this is NOT the original formula drink I speak of.
Any opinions/info? Its extinction - as far as I know - greatly saddens me.
I find cream soda ( whatever brand, here) seems rare/less popular these days. I did find some recently piled next to a heap of rocking horse shit and chicken's teeth.

Ah, the good old fast track to type 2 diabetes. Fruit pies and copious amounts of cream soda. Yum.

Fanta Red (previously known as "Fanta Red Cream Soda") was discontinued in 1993. Greatest soda ever made. Me and my brother used to get one each at the boy's club on Friday and sip it like ambrosia on Saturday. It disappeared decades ago but they brought back every other POS garbage flavor Fanta had...and I have zero explanation why. You can get Dad's Red Cream, real sugar. It's the closest I could find...tastes VERY close but nothing hits like FRC: https://www.sodapoponline.com/products/dads-blue-cream-soda

I'll keep an eye out for Dad's Red. Red cream soda and clear cream soda... Crush has a good red cream soda, and there are generic clears, but yes, nothing compares to that Fanta.
As I kid, I liked cream soda, but won't drink all that sugar anymore. I also like a soda called Green River, and I never that around anymore. We have a place in town that sells candy I loved in the 60's. I can't resist buying those vanilla and cherry Mountain Bars.
Back when I was drinking soda I loved Dr. Brown's cream soda -- which still seems to be around. A&W was also OK. Not sure I ever had the Fanta version? I used to pig out on cream soda (or root beer) floats with Haagen-Daz vanilla ice cream. Yum!
Now to resist the temptation to get cream soda (or root beer) and ice cream on my way home tonight...
The only place you can still get Tab is at the Coca-Cola museum in Atlanta where at the end of the museum tour you can visit the "tasting room" and have as many drinks of various products you want from over a couple dozen fountain dispensers. All the variants of Fanta are there I believe (I don't remember cream soda) and to my delight, Tab was still there and I must have enjoyed about ten cups of it.
I'll be going there again this Labor Day (coinciding with the Dragon Con Convention which is why I was there last year) and getting my annual Tab fix then! (After 35 years of nothing but Tab I have reluctantly switched to Diet Pepsi. OTOH fountain Diet Coke and fountain Diet Pepsi still tastes a lot like Tab because the fountain blends have always continued to use saccharine).

Crush still has their red cream soda, which is good. There is a local bottler up here who makes (horrifically expensive) cream soda that's good. I have seen but not yet tried the A&W cream soda... will do so soon. Fanta was the best though.
