I am in the Houston area and I also have noticed a distinct change in the taste of regular Dr. Pepper. As others have posted here, the flavor is off and it almost tastes flat. I thought it was me and checked all my medications, looking for side effects. My wife...

I bought a 12pk at my local safeway from a display showcasing dark berry. I bought the original and as soon as I tasted it I knew something was different.

I wouldn't say that they it was flat but the flavor was definitely not the same as what I've been drinking for 30 some years. It strangely tasted more like berry or cherry. I thought this was psychosomatic since I had just seen the berry flavors on display. The next day I had another from the 12pk and noticed the same odd flavor.

I went to Costco the next day and bout a 36pk thinking maybe these cans would have been older or from a different source. The taste difference was immediate and obvious.

The new 36pk tasted exactly as it should and had no trace of strange berry flavor. Im not sure if this is a cross contamination issue or what but I do hope that they do not decide to change the flavor of original dr pepper!!!

Where is Surgar Dr Pepper

No one answered and not resolved. Looks like too busy for customers. That isnt the way they handled when my Uncle was a Vice President

User's recommendation: Why try they don’t care.

I've been scammed

The check Thomas Jenkins sent bounced and $1950.49 dollars was taken from my account to cover. I'm trying to get hold of him but he doesn't answer. This man is using the good name of Dr Pepper for his own profit. He will put on a good front at first but he's not a very good actor

User's recommendation: Have nothing to do do with Thomas Jenkins. He knows how to steal from others ànd apparently get away with it.

Help me get back into my account I have enough to buy one free movie theater ticket and was well over my way for a second one three cartons toward the second one

Thomas Henkin is a scam

Those checks are fake they have you cash them send them a large portion for a decal (he say) then he get the money and cancel the check but your account have to pay it back because he will have you withdraw the money before the bank notice the check is fake because it has the correct things on it to look legit I was scammed before so I was aware of it and told the bank. Any decal ads that want you to deposit many and send it to someone else.

User's recommendation: Report it.

Why would Dr. Pepper send you a check? Of course it's a scam.

I opened can of DrPepper, took a big drink, and it was WATER! :((

Dr Pepper - I opened can of DrPepper, took a big drink, and it was WATER! :((
I was working outside in the heat. Decided to take a break and enjoy a nice cold DrPepper, my favorite soda water of course, and after opening a 12 oz can from a 24 pack that I purchased in Burleson, T.X., I discovered it was PURE WATER!! The the next few cans from this case were fine. Then I discovered yet another can of DP that was water only. So I kept the rest of this case thinking, there was 2 opened that contained only water , therefore more than likely more exist in this case .

Bad Batch of Diet Dr. Pepper

1.0
Not sure if anybody else has had this issue, but I recently bought a 24 pack of canned Diet Dr. Pepper and the soda taste bland with barely any flavor. It honestly tastes like a can of mineral water. This is the second time that this has happened in the past six months to me. The first time this had happened I didn't think much of it and thought it was just a one off bad batch, but now after having this happening again it feels like the company is just dropping the ball on their quality. I am a proud Texan, and Dr. Pepper has always been my soda of choice. Please do better.

Dissatisfied and disappointed that my favorite drink has change for the worse

How bad tasting Dr.Pepper has been for the last year and a half!!! I will not waste another penny on Dr Pepper it is horrible and Im not the only one who has said this other people have also noticed that they are flat almost from the minute you open it! What has happened to the only soft drink that I have loved all my life?

User's recommendation: Buy another soft drink anything but DrPepper!
