  • Dannon's coffee yogurt (DCY), a product with a cult following due to its 32 milligrams of caffeine and sweet flavor, was discontinued earlier this year without warning.
  • Loyal consumers, some of whom consumed DCY daily for decades, expressed distress and withdrawal symptoms on social media platforms like Facebook and Reddit.
  • A petition urging Dannon to reconsider the decision garnered nearly 900 signatures, but the company's yogurt division president, Rachel Acevedo, stated the decision was final.
