All my favorite shows air on Sunday night, so any given Sunday I can be found awake till all hours watching them all.

I remember Canada Dry and Schweppes very well, but White Rock didn't ring a bell at all when I heard that on Boardwalk Empire.<br /><br />For as far back as I can remember, there has been a Dr Pepper bottling company in the small town of Dublin, Texas, which is about 80 miles from Fort Worth, where I live. People from Dallas and Fort Worth would drive there to buy the soft drink, because that plant was the only one left that still used cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. Last January, the company announced that there would be no more Dublin Dr Pepper, and the outcry was unbelievable. You're right that bigger isn't always better.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-62212588050650671522012-10-17T19:29:50.257-05:002012-10-17T19:29:50.257-05:00I remember White Rock growing up in Connecticut.

Both soda and local beer production are growing, we seem to be realizing that bigger isn't always better or the best.suzieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04883115039145453043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-84936236299174288352012-10-17T07:22:48.471-05:002012-10-17T07:22:48.471-05:00I don't know if the brand wasn't carried m...I don't know if the brand wasn't carried much where I grew up...or if my mom was just a dyed-in-the-wool Canada Dry gal, but I really don't remember seeing it or hearing about it before now. Maybe I just always bought what my mother bought and never really looked at anything else, which I think we do sometimes without even knowing it.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-8137951760924600102012-10-17T07:20:37.868-05:002012-10-17T07:20:37.868-05:00It's amazing to me that the logo has remained ...It's amazing to me that the logo has remained relatively unchanged all these years.
