Coke? Pepsi? Neither. Dr. Pepper is the real stuff! This stuff has been around since the 1880s, served first in 1885...before both Coke AND Pepsi. It should be the real #1.
Definitely Coke, Diet Coke in fact. Can not get into Dr. Pepper though, but everyone else I know loves it.
Okay, I'll respect the difference in taste. I'll say one thing--it was invented by a pharmacist in Waco, Texas. When it was introduced to the public at Morrison's soda fountain, a store owner who really liked the drink, his guests kept asking for a "Waco"... Glad that name didn't stick.
Yeah, that's kinda weird. Now, is Dr. Pepper a Coke product or a Pepsi product?
It's neither; it's its own product. Technically fully introduced nationally in the US at the Louisiana Purchase Expedition in 1904 as this kind of "new soda pop," made with 23 flavors. They still use that tagline today, actually, with a "23" on their can at times.
