Yeah, I moved to Dallas 2.5 years ago, and I'm still trying to figure out what is up with this Dr. Pepper thing around here

hey TheManiac, you ought go down to waco and check it out...there is also the Texas Rangers Hall of Fame too... as in the law enforcement rangers, its pretty interesting if you are into states history at all. Plus, there is the imfamous site of the branch dividians in Waco...kind of a unique place in Texas. My grandfather used to all Waco the city with a hard-on b/c its skyline consisted of a single tall building for a long time. hehehe anyways, i will stop with the posts for now.
cheers

If you like Dr Pepper and need a diet drink, Try Wal-Marts Dr. Thunder. Cheap and pretty good.

Ever had Dr. Pepper with imperial sugar, nectar of the gods. Besides forget the Waco museum, if you're a real DP fan you'll go to Dublin Texas to go to the factory and get some Dublin Dr. Pepper made with imperial sugar. It takes really good.

Dr. Pepper is everywhere in Texas, no matter if they sell Pepsi or COke there they usually have DP too. Plus Coke makes my throat dry, Pepsi just tastes bad, and Mountain Dew doesn't hold a candle

I don't drink soda anymore but when I did Mr. Pibb was way better than dp but I guess dp was second best.

If you like your DP with Imperial sugar, better hurry. Imperial is going out of business. Those are damn fine bottles that you can get in Dublin, have to go by the bottling plant there to get to the deer lease.

Nope, no prune juice in Dr. Pepper.
Check out the site that yamahaXS linked earlier and check out the ingredients.

From the site: What?s in Dr Pepper? Is Prune Juice in Dr Pepper? What?s in Dr Pepper? Is Prune Juice in Dr Pepper? We don?t know what is in Dr Pepper. The Company holds the formula in a vault. The Company will, however, tell us what is NOT in Dr Pepper. Prune juice is not and never has been in Dr Pepper. That is an old story that has apparently been in circulation since the 1930s, when some delivery man of a competitive drink may have said, ?You wouldn?t want to drink a soda that tastes like it has prune juice in it, would you??

It is cola, just a very good flavor of it. I like the old bottles that used sugar and not corn syrup, there is a place here in Dallas that has many different flavors of "genuine" sodas.

oh hell yeah. :) passed thru dublin several times and we always stop at this one BBQ place for lunch there and I stock up on Imperial Dr. Pepper. :) that stuff gives me a hard-on. :Q


Dr. Pepper is certainly king here in Texas. I love it, drink gallons of it a day. Other people tell me that dr. pepper is too sweet for them, but its the opposite for me, I can't drink Coke because its too sweet, it hurts my teeth, for some reason drinking coke from a can leaves this icky sticky sweet film on my teeth, and I taste the damn coke for hours. :| dr pepper rocks

Warm Dr. Pepper is second-to-none in producing burp gas. I can even drink a SIP of a warm one without having to belch like a cow.

BTW, yamahaXS, Do you HAVE a Yamaha XS? XS what? What year? I'm getting an 81 XS1100SF (Eleven Special) shortly.

Ewwwww! I hate Dr. Pepper. Tastes really nasty like there's medicine or something in it. If I drink soda it's either Sprite or Pepsi. And if there is Cherry Coke, it's definetly Cherry Coke. But I rarely drink soda, so yah...
