It's not a subject I find humorous so even a blatant joke will go ignored. There was also no hint at sarcasm or 'fun'!

At least chuck in an Emoticon!

Our local store has "special edition" Dr Pepper in that's made with sugar instead of HFCS. Hopefully, it's the beginning of a trend...

We also saw Dr. P , Pepsi, and Mtn Dew yesterday in the retro boxes advertising "made with real sugar" yesterday.

Evidently they've been out a while.
