There are odd disappearances from the grocery shelves from time to time. For example, one thing I’ve noticed is that outside of the trinity of Cola/Diet-Cola/Lemon-Lime soda, the availability of other sodas has been hit or miss for the last year. There have been others, less memorable because they’re more transient, but it’s more often the case that I’m likely to not be able to find product X at the grocery store in the last year than previously.

The reason for the soda thing is that there's been an ongoing aluminum can shortage for over a year (apparently it's still a problem), so they've had to focus more on the more popular core sodas and other varieties have been a lot more sporadic.
