Lifted straight from those Coke Zero commercials , Dr Pepper has filed a lawsuit against … Dr Pepper . Seriously . The parent troupe has filed a cause against Dublin Dr Pepper — the tiny works in Texas that habituate cane sugar in their recipe .
The Dublin Dr Pepper plant is actually a enfranchisement and their franchise agreement only allows their distribution range to be 22 - mile radius of Dublin , Texas . Dublin Dr Pepper , being so popular , has been bootlegged outside that kitchen range and popped up in cities like LA and San Francisco . Dr Pepper , the parent company , reasons that they need to protect the other Dr Pepper enfranchisement plants and bottler who play by the convention . “ We owe it to our other bottler to stop these unauthorized praxis . ” Which , I opine , make some kind of sense in a freehanded business corporation mindset .
But also really fucking sucks because Dublin Dr Pepper is delectable .
Dublin Dr Pepper has grown to mythologic condition over the years , it ’s the oldest Dr Pepper plant life , having started in 1891 and is the only plant that use Imperial cane shekels in their recipe in America . call back Mexican coke but even rarer alfresco of Texas . The plant life was surprise by the lawsuit ( dude , it ’s like if your dad sued you ) but believes the lawsuit wo n’t bring home the bacon . I intend , if you go beyond what the ship’s company requires and everyone do it you , you ’d probably have some assurance too . I ’m going to get hold some Dublins today and kvetch back a few , who ’s with me ? [ Houston Press , Image Credit : Amit Gupta ]
