just wondering where does the hobo plug in his dremel? I'm glad to know that is one of the essential tools to pack in my raggedy overcoat pocket.

Hey, this is pretty cool! What doesn't Dr Pepper taste like. They don't sell it in Australia.

no, that's not disgusting, try what I've seen a few people do before, I'm not sure what it's called anymore. take every sort of soda you can imagine and put a little of each in your glass and try that. now I won't say it doesn't have a certain appeal, but mostly I like mine one at a time. LOL teenagers like to try it.

I dont know what it is but it says it has 23 flavors. But the best part about dr. pepper is even after its diluted by ice it still tastes good

Jan 11, 2010. 7:29 PMstruckbyanarrow says:

Dr. pepper tastes like dark cherry soda.

Jan 24, 2009. 2:57 AMawang8 says:

To me awesome tastes like good old Fanta (or Sunkist (or orange crush))

Jan 27, 2011. 12:53 PMJustdoofus says:

Oh damn dude!!!! I LOVE ORANGE CRUSH! My all time favorite!!! They sell them 99 cents here in Colorado for a 16 oz (Yay, I revived a 3 year old comment!)

Dr.Pepper tastes like slightly bitter coke and pepsi with sugar.

Ok to recap

So Awesome tastes like awesome, if you believe in awesome, which in turn may taste like Dr.Pepper, which may taste like dark cherry cola, bitter pepsi and cola with extra sugar to be sweet, good ol'fanta (or sunkist(or orange crush)) or root beer and pepsi
