Don't feel bad Adrian, I live just a stone throw from the US of A. Commercially
Canada is more or less controlled by what is sold in the US of A. And yet, I have 
never heard the Frutopia ads. I get numerous US TV stations but it appears that the 
ads are never played on these stations (even Boston and Atlanta). What does that 
tell you about Coca-Cola's ads?

I have seen Frutopia in the US stores but, other than by the NET, how
would I know that Kate is in any way involved with this product?

I would love to have just one chance to *hear* all of these ads :-(

Does anyone have a copy of all/some of these ads?
