Coke for sure.
Coke, Dr. Pepper, Mt. Dew, and Pepsi all have their drinks sweetened with real sugar, in the Pepsi brands it is called Throw Back. Dr. Pepper sells them in glass bottles in some grocery stores, it is made in Texas. I have also seen it cans and plastic bottles. Same with the Mt. Dew and Pepsi. In Coke it is referred to as Mexican Coke. When we lived in the far South it was sold in glass bottles in all grocery stores.Originally Posted by vampcow
I rarely drink soda but if I do it is Whole's Foods 365 Brand cola with no artifical sweeteners...just made with pure cane sugar. Tastes much better.
Really?? That is awesome! I will have to head to the store and check it out Thank you!Originally Posted by cococat

As I understand it, in some parts of the South, Dr. Pepper is called Coke, and that just sounds plain odd to meOriginally Posted by strange_wings
Dr. Pepper's real sugar version is sometimes available around here and only recently. I've yet to see any of the other types in any store.
It's all "pop" here. If you're ordering, then you specify. Though sometimes I wonder what good that does... I'll order Pepsi or Coke at a restaurant and get Dr. Pepper.Originally Posted by c1atsite

It's too sweet and taste somewhere between flat and just wrong.Originally Posted by c1atsite
LOL Dr. Pepper has a bizarro taste in my opinion. The few times I drank it I think I had to mix it with alot of water. I'm not a pop drinker in general.
Yup. Anything cola is called coke, actually any soft drink including Sprite!Originally Posted by c1atsite

My dad and I were very particular about our Dr. Pepper. We were of the opinion you can't just get a good one anywhere and could taste so many differences between different places that served it. We went out of our way to get them from one gas station because it actually tasted good from the fountain drink machine. Bottled was out unless it was a glass bottle, the fizz is lost too quickly to us. And canned was OK if it was ice cold, either been on actually ice in a cooler or stuck in the freezer for a bit before drinking.Originally Posted by c1atsite
