Pepsi is no longer the #2 soda brand. All hail Dr Pepper

Recommended Posts

Coke is still the top soda in America. But the runner up spot, long held by Pepsi, now belongs to Dr Pepper.

After years of slowly gaining market share, Dr Pepper inched ahead of Pepsi as the number two soda brand in the country in 2023, according to market share data from Beverage Digest, a trade publication

Coke: 19.2%
Dr Pepper: 8.3%
Pepsi: 8.3% (lower than Dr Pepper when carried out to more decimal places)
Sprite: 8.1%
Diet Coke: 7.8%

I drink a lot of Dr.Pepper. I'm on the Pepper Reddit page. The new coconut and creme is awesome, sadly only here a limited time. I bought 4, 12 packs and haven't been able to find them sense.. I only drink 0 calorie soda.  The strawberry flavor is good but classic cherry is still my #1. Once in a while I'll buy the creme soda version. Dr.Pepper is doing a great job adding flavors.

Not what I want to be seeing in the middle of keto flu. The last time I did the keto diet I was already eating cleanly. Went into keto with no ill effects. This time I went keto following a week long vacation of eating like complete poo. Would not recommend. Clean up you diet for a bit first.

In my 30's sodas are no longer a consistent thing for me.

 

But every now and then I will drink a Dr. Pepper.

 

Btw if you drink Mtn Dew seek help. That stuff literally taste like sweet syrup. 

It's all literally just unnaturally sweet syrup mixed with carbonated water.

Pepsi was about the only soda I drank when I did drink them. I gave up soda about 10 years ago and don't miss it. Don't know what it was about the Navy, but it always seemed to me a lot of guys drank a lot of soda when I was in. I had guys that worked for me who got up in the morning and a soda and cigarette were the first 2 things in their hands.

Yeah I know that, but you can't convince me Mtn Dew has a more distinctive sweet flavor than all the other sodas.

 

Just thinking about makes me want to vomit.

I agree it tastes sweeter but looking at the sugar content they're all roughly about equally bad.

Yeah I stopped drinking that stuff when I started feeling like crap. Amazing as you get older your body reacts differently to things you drink/eat in your teens/20's.

 

So glad I fell in love with the gym.

i rarely ever drink carbonated drinks of any kind. last night went to a cookout and all they had to drink was carbonated drinks. didn't think ahead so i didn't bring anything.

i tried a can of dr. pepper and a can of pepsi...dr. pepper was much better. pepsi just didn't have much taste.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
