I know a lot of people have problems with high fructose corn syrup. Pepsi is doing " throw back" pop made with " real sugar!". Pepsi, Mt Dew and Dr Pepper. :P

Disclaimer: Yes, I know that they still aren't good for you. Not suggesting you drink these unless you have searched your inner most being and decided that these products are right for you. ;)

I spotted some of the Dr. Pepper at a Target a few months ago and decided to try it. It's called Heritage Dr. Pepper. It's the best soda I've ever had. :D I haven't been able to find any since, however. Apparently it's it high demand and short supply. Last I looked online people were selling 12 packs for $25 each. That's a little crazy. I wish they would just change all of their products over to real sugar instead of the HFCS crap. I only drink soda when I have a tummy ache (carbonation helps me with the gas), but now there's no way I can drink soda with HFCS. Not only is it bad for my health, but it tastes awful after having some of the real sugar stuff. :blink:

It is at the Target here in Kansas city. Also, see if your grocery sells "Mexican" CocaCola. Ours sell it by individual glass bottles. Pricey this way but if you just want one occasionally it's OK.

The "heritage" Dr Pepper is widely available in the DFW area, but TX is the home of Dr Pepper so that shouldn't come as a surprise.

And just a bit of off-topic clarification - Dr Pepper is NOT a Pepsi product. The fact that Pepsi has the throwback Pepsi/Mountain Dew is not related to the "throwback" Dr Pepper. Dr Pepper (a product of Dr Pepper Snapple Group) just celebrated 125 years and they decided to do a limited run with sugar. Obviously, they are also probably wanting to see the reaction to the sugar version, but it has nothing to do with Pepsi or their reformulated products.

It should also be noted that HFCS, although not good for you in my opinion, is still cheaper as a raw material. There is a reason why these companies stopped using sugar a long time ago. ;)

Folks that really like the idea and taste of Pepsi with sugar not HFCS should contact them. The bottles are marked 'limited time only' so it would be nice if we can deluge them with requests to keep it and they listen.

I bought a bottle of Pepsi Throwback at Wal Mart outside of Houston. It was really good, but I've not been able to find it anywhere since.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By DebJ14 · Posted

      They will have to put him back on gluten in order to get accurate tests results, so all the progress may be lost for a while. My grandson was 2 1/2 years old when he, his father, and his mother, were diagnosed.  He was not even on the chart for height or weight and had not been on the chart since he was 12 months old.  The first month he went gluten free he gained 6 pounds and grew an inch.  Unfortunately, he missed a whole lot of opportunity to grow in those first years.  He remained the smallest, skinniest kid in the class until high school when he clawed his way into the middle row for pictures.  He is 20 and topped out at 5 ft 6 inches.  His mother is 5'7 in a family where everyone is 6 feet tall or more.   His younger brother was 7 months old when he was diagnosed.  At 18 he is 6ft tall.  Best to catch it as early as possible.

      Gluten free diet - are these symptoms normal?

      By trents · Posted

      Maybe you picked up a little intestinal virus? Maybe some ingredient in the gluten free processed foods you've been consuming is causing this. In order to simulate the texture that wheat provides, a lot of gluten free products contain ingredients that may cause digestive distress. Xanthan gum and similar polysaccharides are among the chief offenders.

      Welcome @Ems10, Isn't is wonderful how a simple change helps. Gluten free eating is not a punishment.  It does take attention to details when buying processed foods.

      Hey Talia4, I still try to stay on the lower end of carb intake but things are way easier for me these days. It really looks like a digestive issue at the core in my case   As supplements with meals I'm now taking 3-4x 650mg betaine hcl without pepsin (to handle larger doses) 1-2x Doctor's Best digestive enzymes   And daily Share Pommelozzini. This has helped my digestion immensely with carbs and fats. I'm way more tolerant of larger meals and things are a lot easier. Happy to hear any progress or findings on your end as well though!

      Hi. So for a month or two I had been experiencing extreme pain around my left rib going right up to underneath my breast, I went to hospital and the GP many times and one day it just came across my mind maybe I’m celiac/ gluten intolerant (celiac runs in my family)! I instantly stopped consuming anything with gluten (tbh everything I was eating was full of it) and the day I stopped having gluten the pain instantly disappeared, the next day I had a GP appointment about the pain & I informed him it just stopped instantly and explained why I believe I’m intolerant! I’m waiting on test results as of now, however I have still had absolutely no pain whatsoever today I’ve started to have diarrhea which I haven’t had in at least two months, I was severely constipated whilst consuming gluten! Just wondering would this be a symptom of gluten withdrawal? I’ve done a grocery shop from the “free from” gluten section, I’ve been very careful as I’m terrified the pain will start again!
