what has happened to coca cola, the taste has changed, why have they started giving us coke from the north, its not as sweet, its bland as a wet sock, anyone else agree

Was wondering myself about this, (I know it's an old thread) almost all of the cans and 500ml bottles now seem to be sourced in NI, it started in chippers and take aways that I noticed it last year, but most shops seem to be in on it now as well.
I'm guessing it's cheaper to buy for the retailer, but where are all the better tasting ROI cans, and surely this must be a huge hit for CC Irl? where are their main markets if NI is taking over? or is it a surplus from NI they're shifting?
Weening myself onto diet and zero at the moment to kick the sugar, but when there's no other I want the genuine article!

I think someone told me that all Irish Coca Cola is coming from the north now but I could be wrong.

Edit: Having looked at a can from a multipack and a can that was sold as a single there is no NI logo on either so whoever told me was probably wrong.
