It seems weird to discuss Dr. Pepper overtaking Pepsi in sales without noting that Dr. Pepper tastes much better than Pepsi does

I'll tell you the truth: I hate Dr Pepper to the point I can't finish a can. That Doctor don't taste right.

Dr. Pepper is the reason I had such a difficult time giving up drinking soda. Just something about it...

Is the "Pepsi tastes like battery acid (derogatory)" gene a dominant thing that has become more widespread? I wonder if that contributes. I know a few friends who can't drink Pepsi but love Coke/RC/[generic cola] for this reason

You're right. Another factor: Pepsiman is much further away in Japanese popular history than Dr Pepper is. (SteinsGate popularised Dr Pepper to the Japanese no thanks to the antics of a Pepper-guzzling, banana-microwaving time travelling scientist)

When Pepsi is sold out, I get Dr Pepper. They're both better than Coke.

Diet Pepsi does taste better than Diet Coke though which is maybe a hot take?

Personally I prefer Pepsi. Dr Pepper is just too sweet. If I'm doing that then I'm getting an orange soda like Fanta.

I take pleasure in this because I drank Pepsi Max/Zero almost exclusively for years, until they changed the formula and ruined it. Dr. Pepper was my favorite soda when I drank sugar, still my fountain drink, and now one of my main diets (though I drink far less soda of any kind these days.)

Yuck no. Dr. Pepper has always tasted like cough medicine to me. Pepsi at least tastes like flat coke.

I thought that was implied. When I’m in a restaurant and they ask if I want anything to drink, I say Diet Coke. They’ll say is Diet Pepsi or Pepsi Ok? I’ll say do you have Dr Pepper (usually Pepsi places also have it). And if they say no to Dr Pepper then I just say no thanks, no drink for me.

Dr. Pepper works far better in my Instant Pot BBQ pulled chicken than any cola does, that's for sure.

Dr. Pepper is a shadow of its former self. It used to be a pungent black cherry and now it's barely cherry and way too sweet.
