Rant / Rave: Dr. Pepper

[Hudler]

I've been to the Dr Pepper museum in Waco, Texas. Dr. Pepper with real cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup? Nectar of the Southern Baptist Gods right there.

It's in Dublin,Texas IIRC and what they make there is AWESOME!! I can't even drink the Dr. Pepper around here anymore because I've had the original recipe.

I tried some of the 10-2-4 or whatever Dr. Pepper it is, with the Imperial Sugar. The taste is not that different.

Diet soda makes you fat.

Diet soda makes you fat.

I think a lot of the reason for that is that people then feel they can eat more if they're saving calories on their drink and they then ingest more calories otherwise.

I lost a good 80 pounds over a year and a half period a while back and I drank diet soda in the amount I already talked about above, maybe even more so then now. Maybe I'm the exception to the rule.

That just looks evil man. And look, it's already baked in the shape of love handles so that your body has less work to do!

I think there must be two Dr. Pepper museums....I've been to this one, in downtown Waco.

The sweetener also messes with your body's appetite control mechanism.
