I have fond memories of my grandfather serving RC Cola to me in a small town in Norway 30 years ago. Imported to the town by a small independent shop focusing on cheaper alternatives to the big brands.

Few years ago, IKEA sold RC Cola in their restaurant in Norway, but haven’t seen it recently.

Still pops up once in again through catering services, probably because of a lower price point.

I quite like RC. Also only tasted it in Norway years ago. It's slightly more caramel flavoured than Coke or Pepsi, but not nearly as much as Dr Pepper which is too much for me. The best thing about RC from my perspective is that it is the only cola I have ever tried where it took me a second to taste the difference between their regular and diet version, even a few decades ago. My parents regularly tried to get me to pick the sugar free versions and RC was the only one where I almost had to concede that they tasted the same.
