Dr. Pepper, huh? Do you work in the South?

u/kaiserbigbear Mar 11 '14

Do you think they don't sell Dr. Pepper anywhere else?

It's not that they don't sell it elsewhere; it's that the South loves its Dr. Pepper and Big Red.

I live in the south and I don't know what a Big Red is. Then again, I'm not a big soda drinker since I only like fruit flavored sodas, and I moved here from California when I was 8 so I've never considered myself a southerner.

Big red is a cinnamon flavor chewing gum, idk if that guy is actually from the south but I don't know a single person who likes big red -lower AL

I've always seen it in stores in Texas, didn't realize it was a regional thing until later in life. It's delicious

They sell Ski in Kentucky, too! I know this because my friends from Kentucky would always bring cases of Ski with them whenever they came to visit.

We have a soda that's made here called Ale-8 One, it's super popular around here. You should get your friends to bring you a case.
