Dr. Pepper?
It seems whenever I go out of state I have a hell of a time finding Dr. Pepper? What's up with you folks on the coast and your disdane for this drink?

DP is prevalent here in California...where on the coast (and which one) are you going to?

I have noticed the same thing--- every time we go to Chicago-- they look at me like I am crazy when I order a DrP.
How can people live without this beverage.

Specifically on the West Coast, I was in Portland, Oregon a couple weeks ago. Couldn't find a DP to save my life.

Head down to the San Diego area....that's all there is out this way (and Mr. Pibb, to a small extent)

I live in S. California and live on Dr Pepper! Who knows what would happen if my local Costco ran out!

I don't think Costco can EVER run out of anything...there's just way too much stuff there.....get into trouble with my mom when we go there. There have been times we were proud members of the $600 club!

It's pretty much everywhere on the west side of washington, but I find less of it on the east side, which I hate, because that's where I go to school. But I always have trouble finding diet Dr. Pepper everywhere!

When I first moved to GA over 20 years ago, I got weird looks for ordering DP. Georgia, you see, is the Coke capital.
But...as a native Texan, I *must* have my DP! When the company was first founded, my grandfather was a boy who helped clean the place every night and they would pay him in stock. Good decision on his part!

Gonna hafta do a pilgrimage to Waco so's I can get ahold of Dr. Pepper made with REAL sugar (most of the rest of the Dr. Pepper bottlers use corn syrup as the sweetener). Good excuse to go to the Texas Masonic Grand Lodge meeting in December...
