When right before Vanilla Cherry Dr. Pepper came out. They showed up on my campus with two trucks and handed out cans of the stuff.

It wasn't bad in my opinion. Not good enough to buy, but good enough to go back several times and get more free cans.

I dunno. The fake sugars all get me nautious. For real. :S I've yet to try it beyond one sip.
There is the Dublin Dr. Pepper that is made with Real Cane sugar, not anything else fake. It has a different color to it and a different taste. Pluse it comes in the original bottle. You should try it. Not sure where you'd get it

In general, when you go to a convenient store you're more likely to find the diet version. At least thats how it happens for me.

Don't the diehard fans say to buy Coke during Channukah or Passover and get the kosher stuff? I think that's when Coke (and I'm assuming Pepsi and 7-Up) uses sugar and not corn syrup.

We used to take road trips down to Ensenada, Mexico and stock up on Coke in the bottle. Real sugar, man it tasted good. We could never find it in Tijuana, but then we tried not to stay long in that town.

I never really liked soft drinks til I tried them outside of this country.

I got handed a Coke '0' or something weird like that. It was carb and sugar free.

It tasted like ass. But like I said, I get a weird reaction to ANY of the fake sugars in things. If I drank the entire 20oz. I would have felt like passing out all day.

Coke '0'? Okay, thats the last straw.. First it was Diet Coke, then it was that Coke 1 or something, now its Coke '0'? What else are they going to put out? -Coke? It actually eats your carbs and calories!!

We don't put weird shit like corn syrup in our drinks, it's sugar all the way here.

As a rule I hated anything diet, until I tasted Diet Coke with lime. It's truly incredible. I can't get enough.

actually it is pepsi one and coke zero. also they have C2. coke just had to out do pepsi with a 2 is better than one and 0 is less than one. i dont like any of the diet low carb sodas anyway.

the only place ive seen the vanilla cherry diet dr pepper was at a barbecue and i have no idea who brought it but we ended up taking home the whole 12 pack because nobody drank it. it sat in my apartment for a few weeks and i tried one and it was ok. once the case was gone though, i have never had it again. and ive never seen the non diet version.

Coke Zero and C2 suck major ass...

Diet Coke Zero (with the silver and black label) is quite good!

No carbs. No sugar. No artificial coloring. Diet. Essentially what I'm drinking then is shitty tasting colored water. With fizz.

I miss Pepsi Clear.

I actually liked that. A good mix was pepsi clear and Cherry 7-Up. 50/50. Tasted great.
