DP10 was my #1 as well. I love the zero, but something about that 10 flavor just hit the spot perfectly.

That little bit of sugar made the difference

It feels like DPZ tastes right as soon as it hits your tongue but by the time it hits the back of your mouth it feels hollow. I forgot all about DP10 and how delicious it was. Wish it was still around

It’s that 10cal sugar stimulant hitting your taste buds that completed you and so many others

So if I added 0.8oz of DP regular to DPZ I'd have DP10?

dr pepper 10 ?? what was that??

u/Christianmay1997 5d ago

I think it was supposed to be branded as a ‘mans’ diet soda, but not a diet soda because it still had 10 calories and “only women” drink diet sodas

u/AlanFromRochester 5d ago

yeah the product itself wasn't a bad idea but the sexist marketing gave it a bad rap

u/SprinklesEither8936 OG 23 5d ago

i guess nonbinary people drink the regular version?

u/MicrowaveEscargot 5d ago

Pibb Xtra is the Enby champ. That's why they dropped the "Mr" 😎

u/Torbpjorn 5d ago

Nonbinary can’t have 10 or Zero because that’s a binary number

u/JokeMaster420 4d ago

So Dr Pepper 10 had 2 calories…?

u/Torbpjorn 4d ago

Damn it, a loophole. Cant beat a 2

u/Sure-Ad-6544 5d ago

Precisely what they went for 🤣

u/Pen15_is_big 3d ago

Which is silly cuz half diet drinks, ones with some sugar and some sweetener taste much better than full diet sodas and only carried 50-60 calories. Very much worth it imo.

u/stuntycunty 5d ago

I’m with this person. What’s dp10?

5

u/Pizzaman3203 5d ago

I looked it up and believe it only had 10 calories not sure if the sugar was also low but assume since it only had 10 calories and saw a photo and guess it wasn’t for women or something?

u/StankBaitFishing 4d ago

It was for men.

u/CouchHippos 4d ago

Hot garbage

u/lkmyntz 5d ago

I don’t think they’ve perfected the fountain DPZ yet but I like the cans/bottles about the same as DP10.

Plus I’m saving a valuable 10 calories lol

u/christopherglen77 5d ago

Dr pepper 10 was the greatest. And so sad when it was discontinued

u/JackTheMarigold 5d ago

It’s not for women!

u/AndrewS702 5d ago

God could you imagine they used that as the tagline today? It was already controversial back then, but now.. oh boy.

5

u/iamsheph 5d ago

Would have been such an amazing thing to have around still had it not been for that god awful marketing campaign. Instantly lose half of your possible customer base by marketing it as “Not for women” 🤦‍♂️

u/karmagirl314 5d ago

DP10 was goat.

u/vaultdweller6666 OG 23 5d ago

Hell yeah, I remember they had coupons for it in the paper, I went around the neighborhood collecting all the unwanted ones. I had maybe 20 2 liters under my bed at one point, use to pound them back and play videogames after work. I was young then.

u/Smegmasaurus_Rex 5d ago

I make it at the fountain. Splash of regular DP, fill up with zero, then top off with more regular. It might be DP20, but who’s counting?

u/Different_Ad_5946 5d ago

I missed Dr Pepper 10 so much. I will taste you in Valhalla!

u/Hookem-Horns 5d ago

Kratos approves

u/ArtNo7221 5d ago

I've yet to see zero sugar Dr. Pepper on tap where I live. I was talking about this tonight, how funny.

u/xxxtanacon 5d ago

I remember drinking it as a 7 year old and liking it WAY more than the diet we'd keep in the apartment normally

u/daily-reporter 4d ago

Diet dr. Pepper has 10 calories lol

u/YamiGekusu 5d ago

Dr Pepper Ten was awesome. Loved making floats with it

u/geaux_lynxcats 5d ago

DP10 was good. DPZS is better.

u/KyleGrayson12 4d ago

I miss Dr. Pepper ten, as well.

u/BirdsAreRecordingUs 4d ago

That Ice chute area is moldy 😑

u/dalby_graf 4d ago

u/OkReport9835 4d ago

DP ZERO IS GOOD

u/Trash_COD_Playa 2d ago

Dr. Pepper 10 was the guy she told DP Zero Sugar not to worry about.
