The REAL Thing
« on: January 24, 2007, 11:14:07 PM »
I'm sitting here enjoying the first REAL Coca-Cola I've had in years. Our store started importing Coke from Monterrey, Mexico. It's made with real sugar and comes in 12oz glass bottles with metal caps. It tastes like a summer afternoon in 1964.

It's the real thing!
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

If I had a Moon Pie right now, I could die a happy man.

My sister went back to Texas last week and brought back some real Dublin, TX Dr Pepper for me.  It's made with pure cane sugar and absolutely perfect.  It's the holy grail of soda for a DP guy like myself.

That is becoming more widespread around here. The Dallas DP plant is now making "Dublin" in mass. You can still get the 8oz glass bottle 6 packs, but they also have 16oz plastic bottles in convenience stores and 12oz 12pack plastic bottles.
