Soda: Texas Loses Dublin Dr Pepper As just about any drinker of soda in the area could tell you, Dublin Dr Pepper is the cane-sugar equivalent of the version you’ll find in the rest of the country. Its fans like it for many of the same reasons people like Pepsi Throwback or Mexican Coke, often preferred for their lack of corn syrup and, in the case of the latter, old-fashioned glass bottles. But in parts of Texas, it’s a matter of regional pride, as well. Which made it all the more painful when the Dublin Dr Pepper plant was shut down last week. “Texans are upset about the loss of Dublin Dr Pepper because we see it as a loss of Texas culture and identity as much as a loss of the wonderful old-fashioned cane sugar-sweetened soda itself,” Texas food authority Robb Walsh told us. As a Dallas native, I was truely saddened by this.
