On Monday, Tesco announced the sad news that Ribena, Capri-Sun and Rubicon will no longer grace their shelves.
The decision to remove the drinks was made in a bid to tackle childhood obesity, and will come into action after the kids have gone back to school on 7 September.
The move may have been welcomed by health campaigners, but naturally, the internet is outraged. continue to see their tweets ...
RIP full fat Ribena (being sold in Tesco). Your services to my hangovers will not be in vain.

So are tesco going to ban their own brand sweets and crisps now? Cause they're probably contributing more to childhood obesity than ribena..
