Is it like Dr Pepper 10? I found that stuff to be really really ..too sweet.

I'm not sure, I don't think I've tried the Dr Pepper 10 but the Pepsi Next didn't seem too sweet to me.

Probably too sweet for you then. Dr. Pepper 10 and Pepsi Next or both just right for me, but you might want to try Pepsi Next Cherry Vanilla. Pepsi Nexdt has more sugar than DP 10 though.

Seen the 591ml bottles being sold in the coolers at Sobeys. Atleast the regular Pepsi Cherry. It's okay. Dr. Pepper Cherry is better IMO.

I prefer Cherry Coke Zero but since I just drank the last one I brought back from the States this will serve as a good replacement. Hopefully the 591mL bottles become more widely available in the near future.

Are there retailers that import it and sell it? If so, you lucky Calgarians.

My dad went down to North Dakota yesterday to meet with some potential tenants. I'll send him a message to pick me up some Vanilla Coke Zero while he's down there.

I like that this post was edited for "mass typos" but "Seen" (used in the style of "I seen") was left standing. God bless you, sir.

There's Vanilla Coke Zero? Why in the hell do we not get these interesting flavours up here? Clearly there's a market for it. Even buying gluten free is incredibly easy in the States. Here? It costs an arm and a leg and we get half as much variety.

Yeah they have tons of great diet flavours down in the US, not just the mainstream stuff either.

As for this diet pepsi cherry, I don't think I'm a fan.

Plus they have tons of diet pop made with sucralose instead of acesulfame-potassium. When I was in Vegas a couple years ago I counted almost 20 different varieties of coke products at a gas station. They had darn near every permutation you could think.

Picked up a case of Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi last night. So good.

Wow insane. How can anyone like the taste of diet crap? I can't even chew gum anymore because of that aspartame crap. Can you not taste it?? or has that aspartame crap destroyed all your taste buds?
