Zeldy, I feel your pain. Since I have no going outage tonight, we should hang out with Dr. Pepper and green Ben and Jerry's. : D
My love for Dr. Pepper goes beyond normal.

That's insane! I used to drink regular Dr Pepper a lot, but not that much. Maybe closer to 6-8 cans/day. That's still not good for you, though. :(Quote:

The guy was drinking at least 3000 calories of Dr. Pepper a day! He's a traveling salesman that drives everywhere and he was constantly drinking at least five 48 oz. big gulps (20 cans, almost a case) every day. Occasionally he would be as high as ten 48 oz. big gulps (40 cans, almost two cases), or 6000 calories.Quote:

I don't really miss regular anymore. Diet Dr Pepper is surprisingly close as far as taste is concerned, and I've grown accustomed to it. Sometimes I mix it up and get Caffeine Free Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper. :roll2
I lost respect when you mentioned 'diet' Dr Pepper, they aren't even the same thing at all. Diet is nothing on the regular version. Other than diet and zero (once, once, I tried them once) I have never seen or tried this vanilla variation!Quote:

I think I go through about two 500ml bottles and a few cans every day at college, sometimes more. It's alot when I do that 5 days a week, costs me a fortune.
Dr. Pepper from a restaurant tastes great, but Dr. Pepper from a store tastes terrible.

Also, I, too, am more of a Mountain Dew person than Dr. Pepper, but like I said, it's not too bad.
EDIT: And cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper is <3
Dr. Pepper is the greatest (non-alcoholic) drink ever created. I drink it all the time.
Dr Pepper is my favorite soda. I like all kinds of soda, except Caffeine Free. I'll drink diet before that. But one thing has irked me recently about the soda industry. Why is it MTN Dew now? It it so hard to spell it out. That just looks stupid.
Dr Pepper is a terrible drink that should be ejected from Earth. Coca-Cola, cream soda and Sprite, however, are excellent.

Edit: Also, there is a link between loneliness/weirdness and drinking Mountain Dew, I'm sure of it!
