It’s Dr.Skipper, but smoked fish is awesome nonetheless.

Dr. Brown’s root beer is by no means a Dr. Pepper knockoff. It may well predate Dr. Pepper (first served in 1885, named some years later) — certainly the Dr. Brown’s brand does, dating back to 1869, but I can’t find out when they expanded beyond Cel-Ray (shudder) and cream soda.

Dr. Pepper is a drink I have always wanted to like, but never actually enjoyed whenever I tried it.
Grape soda is meant to taste like grapes, Sprite is meant to taste like lemon/lime, lots of other sodas are flavored with the plant extract in their names (ginger/cola/birch), even Mellow Yellow/Mt. Dew are “citrus” flavored, but Dr. Pepper isn’t even pepper (or “doctor”) flavored, it’s just “flavored.”

No. Mr. Pibb needs to get serious about his post graduate studies before he can join my club.

What if Mr. Pibb is a British surgeon? They worked hard for that right to be called Mr.

That is a fair point to make, but since Mr. Pibb is in American drink I don’t feel I am being too terribly provincial about this. Besides, given what a nanny state the United Kingdom is, it’s probably just a matter of time before soda is illegal there anyway.
I once convinced a friend to drink Cel-Ray. He deemed it “Interesting.”
Is it just me, or does Dr. Fizzicist sound like a villain from The Tick?

Celery-flavored soda. No thanks. I’d rather drink a spam milkshake.

I can’t stand the stuff, but that’s because I really don’t like celery. It’s not particularly sweet, so it’s not as weird as you might imagine. DRY Sparkling has cucumber, juniper, and lavender flavors. Other small brands are doing similar things:

Agreed, but it’s a soda with “Doctor” in the name so I felt I should add it to the pantheon.
If your doctor doesn’t taste like delicious soda, you may need a second opinion.
I kinda like it

Dr. Pepper says it is “Partially Produced with Genetic Engineering,” which probably means the syrup comes from GMO corn, but I like to think they genetically engineered a creature that secretes pure Dr. Pepper like Futurama’s Slurm worm.

That’s what makes Dr. Pepper woke.
Is that what the kids say nowadays? Woke?
