Chow Please Bring it Back

onAnd by “it” I mean Chocolate Cherry Diet Dr. Pepper. I know it sounds like something I should despise as much as I despise pre-made root beer floats, but I promise it’s really really good. (Unless you’re one of the many who hate any and all diet soda, in which case, you’ll hate this just as much.)
It was in stores about, oh, eight or nine months ago. I could only find it in a few local supermarkets and 7-11s, but it was worth the trek to the out-of-the-way store. It was delicious. Because of it, I’ll probably get cancer. But it was delicious.
Dr. Pepper people, I knew you said it was a limited edition, but I didn’t think you meant it. Don’t you companies just say that so people rush out and buy the product? I don’t understand. You kept the far inferior Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper on the shelves. Why’d you give chocolate the boot? Please bring it back.

Mmmm! Delicious bottled cancer!
Anything that tastes like chocolate, while not actually containing chocolate, is nasty. I feel the same way about anything banana flavored.
This was the foulest tasting beverage I've ever put into my mouth. I still have 10 left from a 12 pack that I will never drink. If you want them, they are yours. First come, first serve.
Megan, I love your posts, but girlfriend you have the WEIRDEST fetishes over perverted spin-offs of snack-food items.
@2: Same! I mean, some artificial strawberry flavours out there are just plain fucking nasty bad, but faux chocolate flavours, regardless of the quality, send shivers down my spine.
Some things in nature are not meant to be trifled with.
Better or worse than Diet Coke with floor cleaner, I mean, lime?
Wow, that is...really, really gross. Any product that combines "chocolate" with "soda" should be banned, and its makers imprisoned.
Pretty sure I saw some of that stuff recently at a Grocery Outlet. Specifically the one in Kenmore. There's one on Hwy 99 too. I'd check there.
Not that I condone consuming such products.
That was by far the best soda I'd ever had. My love for Code Red Mountain Dew was far and away surpassed.
Here here! Where's our Dr. Pepper that tastes like someone dropped in some Tootie Rolls and a cherry Jolly Rancher...?
I saw someone behind the talking heads at the DNC convention who threw up a sign that said BRING BACK CRYSTAL PEPSI....it made my day
drink some water
Artificial banana flavor is far superior to real banana flavor. Artificial chocolate can be hit or miss (better than most but not all real chocolate), but chocolate in soda is always a good idea. Not as good as strawberry, grape, or orange, but good nonetheless.
Tootie Rolls? Now you're just talking dirty.
It's actually Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper, not Chocolate Cherry. I make this distinction because Tay Zonday impregnated my brain with the jingle.
The only thing that sounds worse is "Diet Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper Crunch."
/me sings Cherry Chocolate Rain... open the door and see you standing there... Cherry Chocolate Rain...
I only do Diet cause of diabetes - this is just horrid, tried it on closeout 6 months ago - could not give away in a big office
sent to food bank
best Diet around is Shasta Diet Grapefruit - chill it well - tastes like old time Squirt - very good - excellent mixer, much better than modern Fresca
Dr. Pepper Diet Berries & Cream was the one that did it for me. Orgasmic. I mourn for it still.
Ha, thanks Fnarf. Spelling error humor FTW.
I was so sure i was going to hate this stuff, but it turns out that I love it too.
