It's expensive($45 for a 24 pack of 8 oz bottles, includ. shipping) but I ordered it and I thought it worth it. You can get it online from the very first Dr. Pepper bottler from the 1890's in Texas. It's called Dublin Dr. Pepper. Took about a week to get here and it's well packed. Not something I'd do all the time, but maybe once or twice a year as a treat, sure.

That sounds very interesting and would be cool to try. It's interesting how they try new/different products in select areas.

Oops......sorry I posted about MD not being included a few posts prior as I didn't see the other posts about it before replying

Yes, it's pretty hard. It's in just about every pre-packaged thing out there. Needless to say, I have to cook most of my own meals and snacks from fresh fruits and veggies and drink teas I brew at home to avoid it, but I do feel better and have lost some weight too.

I'll have to do that as a treat for myself when I get back to the states in January.

Jones soda Welcome to Jones Soda uses cane sugar. It's often on sale at my local grocery stores.

As someone previously stated soda is loaded with corn syrup and sugar. For that reason I do not drink soda and have not done so for 8 months. People who do not drink alcohol, go to bars, and drink sodas are kidding themselves.

Furthermore, fruit juice is also full of sugar. I have not drank fruit juice in 6 months. The only good fruit juice is at a health food store. I drink bottled spring water. That's it.

Or you could make your own at home with a juicer, then you're in charge of how much sweetner you do or don't put in.

It's not too bad. I've always enjoyed the berry lemonade and strawberry lime. I first bought it in Colorado many years ago and have been surprised to find it has gotten good distribution now throughout the states.
