Country of Origin
Since it's made by the Coca Cola company, wouldn't the country of origin be the US?
70.121.58.6 05:28, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
No. Leed was never sold in the US as far as I know - probably why it's so hard to find decent material about it on the web. Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd (formerly Oasis Industries) is the New Zealand/Australian distributor for Coca Cola products.
References
I WOULD cite my references, but I don't have any. This page is an attempt to bring some actual Leed material to the world since at the moment there's next to nothing out there.
If anyone has any material then please let me know. Greaneyr (talk) 08:56, 26 November 2007 (UTC) (talk • contribs) 02:51, 23 April 2007 (UTC).
Sprite relation
Could Leed have been a precursor to Sprite, or Sprite a US version? Do they taste similar? BlackSabbath1996 (talk) 21:42, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Sprite not widely known in Australia
This says that the name Leed was replaced with the more widely known name Sprite. This is not entirely true. The name Sprite was unknown in Australia and I'm guessing in the other Coca COla Amatil nations. It wasn't until, I'm guessing, the international Coca Cola Corporation decided to consolidate the names and rplace Leed name with Sprite in places like Australia, that the name Sprite was even known. Proof? I grew up in the 70s in Australia and it was the lemonade of choice. --MarkN0062 (talk) 12:41, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
Requested move 26 January 2019
- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: moved SITH (talk) 23:28, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Leed (drink) → Leed – WP:DIFFCAPS, target redirects to LEED, a disambiguation page, but only this article can be called "Leed". Red link Leed Publishing is only linked from two articles, is not called just "Leed", and often is capitalised as "LEED Publishing", e.g. as the Japanese article at jp:リイド社 does. It is unlikely that either of the other two DAB entries will be referred to as "Leed" instead of "LEED". The page was moved from "Leed" in 2008. 94.21.204.175 (talk) 16:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC) 94.21.204.175 (talk) 16:00, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support, this is the only article named "Leed". Lazz_R 22:22, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support Per WP:DIFFCAPS.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 08:14, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
- Neutral a discontinued drink. No, not notable enough to grab baseline space. In ictu oculi (talk) 16:10, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support The drink has higher pageviews than the redirect (by about 50%) and some (many?) of those redirects will be for the drink. Hence, most readers will be better served by the drink getting the baseline space. Schwede66 18:15, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
- There is something wrong, but I don't think this is it. The disambiguation page at LEED should be moved to Leed, and LEED should be redirected to its primary topic, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. Dekimasuよ! 07:49, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
- The other two "Leed"s, Rick Leed and Melveen Leed, are WP:PTMs added since I requested this move, but still this is the only topic that can be called simply "Leed". I think repurposing "LEED" needs a separate proposal (because of notifications etc). 94.21.238.64 (talk) 18:06, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
