"Deep in the soul of every veteran soft drink connoisseur may be a little six-ounce bottle of Grapette soda.  Spunky little Grapette from Camden, Arkansas - the bright purple star of the south - flashed across the nation throughout the 40s, 50s and 60s before seemingly vanishing overnight.  Three decades later, people all across America can quench their thirst for Grapette and Orangette, and it never could have happened without the help of another famous Arkansas Company - Wal-Mart Stores, Inc."
