Some blog readers have given me good suggestions (especially Kirby Larson, who told me to switch to beer).
One person got me to this message board where I see I am not alone in my outrage. I wrote a few scathing letters. I'm sure that will do the trick.
But in the meantime, I took another suggestion and hit the local Job Lot.
They had Fat City Coffee ("with Chutzpah"):
They had Extra Caffeinated Santa's Breakfast Buzz:
They had Fudge Brownie Coffee:
They had Nutt'n But Kisses Valentine Coffee Collection:
And they had Sumatran Vanilla Latte:
But, alas, no Cafe Francais with a blue label.
So I went to a few grocery stores.
Nope, only the NEW AND IMPROVED:
So then I got really desperate and went to the Dollar Tree:
They had Pampa Instant Coffee:
And Ameretto Cappuccino Supreme (with highly questionable expiration dates):
And Mazel Original Coffee Mix with Sugar & Creamer added (yum!):
But, alas, no Cafe Francais with a blue label.
I am doomed.

I wish I'd know about Extra Caffeinated Santa's Breakfast Buzz when my kids were small.
Darn! Sorry I no help! I read Amazon and people are REALLY outraged. :) That may be an exaggeration but...
I can't believe security wasn't called in the stores with you taking all these pictures!!!

You have me LAUGHING out loud at your photos and outrage...well placed outrage of course. I hope you don't mind, but I included the picture of you with your beloved International coffee on my Looking for Newbery post for January 12.
Bill, of course I don't mind!
I'd say you've got a coffee conundrum!
Just think of all the material you are accumulating for your next book(s)!!
I see the product I'm looking for but can't find a store or company who sell it. It's the Mazel original coffee sticks. Oh where can I find it. I'm getting desperate.
