Don't like Dr. Pepper either or Mr. Pibb, all for the same reason. They all taste medicinal.

Yup :D In fact, I've always thought that root beer tasted a bit like D&B.

Incidentally, the reason it exists is that, back in the day, we used to brew beer out of any old crap, including weeds. Eventually, hops and barley became the standard and brewers were left with all this other crap that nobody wanted turning into beer. Thus the soft drink was invented.

Nah, some ketchup/tomato sauce would do me just fine. Can't stand mayo at all!
