My mom told me that when Dr. Pepper first came out, everyone said it tasted like carbonated prune juice.

i used to hate it, i thought it tasted like medicine. (must have been the "dr" subconscious connotation) now its my favorite soda.

however, horchata will remain my favorite drink of all time, when made correctly.

Nope, Dr. Pepper is actually a Cadbury Schweppes product, same company that makes those disgusting eggs during easter. I'd assume they pay Pepsi to be in their vending machines etc.

Actually, they don't make those nasty eggs anymore. I think nestle does. If you do some research on some "name" products like that, you might find it interesting who really makes it.

Here is a for instance. Chocolate is bad for dogs and cats, right? Nestle, known for their candy bars, makes Purina and ProPlan brand dog and cat foods. All it is, is a name. Pepsi does own the rights to DrPepper somewhere up that chain.

This is bullshit. Why would Dr. Pepper be bottled by coke here and not pepsi if pepsi owned it?

Y'all are stupid.

Straight from the front page of the Dr. Pepper web site.

DR PEPPER and PEPPER are registered trademarks of Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. ©2005 Dr Pepper/Seven Up, Inc

That corporation is owned in turn by Cadbury/Schweppes.

Vending machines can hold whatever products they want, which shows absolutely no correlation to the product's corporate heritage. Machine contents are controlled by the machine's distributor and their customer. You basically find a vendor that has the products you are looking for and you tell them what you want in your machine and they put it in.

Dr. Pepper is not bottled by Coca-Cola nor is it bottled by Pepsico. They are all bottled by independant bottlers around the world who are contracted to bottle each companies beverage.

Some people's children.

PS- Cadbury still makes the Creme/Caramilk Eggs, not Nestle.
