Doctor Pepper

[phil99]

I bought 2 x 2litre bottles of Dr Peper from the Spar local to work recently as I love the stuff and it was cheap (relatively), and have been steadily working away at it over the past few workdays. Only today did I notice the nutritional information on the side as I put the bottle down. The content wasn't a surprise in general, but the sugar

do they make a diet Dr Pepper? is it revolting?

[phil99]

I imagine that it exists but I've not seen it. I prefer Diet Coke compared to coke so it may be worth checking!

i checked it out. it exists in the US, but in the UK it's coca cola who have the "local bottling rights" to Dr Pepper, and they seem to only make the real stuff and "Dr Pepper Zero". (http://www.coca-cola.co.uk/ourbrands/default.aspx?ID=41). Generally anything with Zero in the name i avoid :)

We have Diet Dr. Pepper in the states and it is only slightly more revolting than regular Dr. Pepper. I can send you some, if you want. Also Diet Moxie, another oddly flavored soda. :)

Nooo don't worry about sending any, I'm really not that bothered. Moxie sounds interesting...
