    This stuff is legit.

    I saw it in the store and at first was like... whatever.

    I tried it and man it is as close as you can get to real Dr. Pepper.

    I won't try to front and act like it is the real thing. It isn't. But man they did a good job with it.

    Plus the commercials are funny.

    that's a great idea...only 10 calories.

    But what happens when Coke comes out with 9 calories?:confused:

    Interesting.. I will have to give it a try. Already, if a place has Diet Dr Pepper, that is always my number one preference anyway, since it is by far the best diet soda as it is. I don't know that they can improve much on it, but we shall see, we shall see...

    This soda is so good you question if it is regular soda.

    Diet soda drinkers like that diet soda taste. That is why I hate diet drinks. They taste nothing like the real thing. This thing does the damn thang.

    No I don't work for them.

    Dr. Peppers' wall on Facebook is currently being flooded by complaints for their "sexist" commercials.

    It better be pretty good, because seemingly, it doesn't make a ton of sense to make a second diet drink (that has ten more calories than the first), when your first is already the best out there.

    I loves me some Diet Dr. Pepper.

    As a long-time Diet Dr. Pepper drinker, and a recovering regular Diet Dr. Pepper drinker -- I don't think the new one is all that. Pretty much the same as diet, if not slightly less tastey IMO.

    They said the same thing about Coke zero and it was bullsh**. I will give it a try though.

    Coke Zero compared to Diet coke -- HUGE difference!

    Diet Dr. Pepper compared to the new one -- negligible difference.

    Don't let the marketing fool you. It's 10 calories per serving, NOT 10 calories per bottle.

    This is good advice. I've noticed that this forum isn't the best for health conscience people.

    Aren't the artificial sweeteners in diet drinks carcinogens (saccharine, etc..)?
