Today I tried my first Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper and tasted neither cherry, nor vanilla. It tastes just like Dr. Pepper to me. They like to claim that their Diet Dr. Pepper tastes just like the original, apparently that applies to anything they do. This smells like a "New Coke" ploy to me. With Pepsi trying to eliminate Dr. Pepper/7 UP in the Mankato area (and possibly other markets) this could just be a trick to sell more regular D.P. But Mountain Dew will always be the champ anyway.
