************************* GRAPE NEHI *************************
The Chero-Cola company added Nehi Cola to its line of sodas in 1924 in order to offer a broader variety of flavors offering orange, grape, root beer, peach, and other flavors of soda. Nehi was instantly successful and outsold Chero-Cola entirely. The company changed its name to Nehi Corporation in 1928. By 1940, Nehi products were available in forty-seven of the forty-eight states. In the late 40's Nehi was available in many flavors including Dr. Nehi, Nehi Chocolate, Nehi Root Beer, Nehi Lemonade, Nehi Wild Red, Nehi Blue Cream, and its more classic flavors Nehi Orange, Nehi Grape, and Nehi Peach. Many of these flavors were later dropped as their novelty and popularity waned.

In the early 20th century, the advertising logo of Nehi was a picture of a seated woman's legs, in which the skirt was high enough to show the stockings up to the knee, suggesting the phrase "knee-high". In 1946, the pace for the Corporation accelerated tremendously. The company began to enhance its advertising by using celebrities. Bing Crosby, Joan Crawford, Bob Hope, Hedy Lamarr, Robert Ripley and many others joined in selling the products of Nehi Corporation.

A favorite of Radar from M*A*S*H, Nehi soda has been satisfying the palates of many for years. Although Nehi soda is still being produced, it can be very difficult to find in many areas.
