Not long ago I added a cool little tool here that allows readers to ask any questions they have.

Well it seems as if one inquiring reader would like to know:

The major differences between Dr Pepper and Mr Pibb, and why DP is better.

Now I must admit its not realy the type of question I had in mind but I did say you could ask anything, so it’s only fair that I do respond.

First of all the big difference between the two is age, as the doctor was first introduced in 1885 and the young Mr. wasn’t concocted until 1972.

So the doctor does have some years over the young pib but how long can one carry on with all those flavors before fizzling out?

So it would seem that the Dr is not only better educated ( all though I have yet to see any evidence that he truly is a doctor) but has gained more trust with the elders that remember him from back in the day.

I wouldn’t count out the youngest one yet, it seems as if she has added a few more flavors and is now going by her gang given name Pibb Xtra. I beleive the old doc may be a bit too old to learn any new tricks and the younger of the two is just starting to get some momentum along with a strong backing of a newer generation.

Fans of the doctor may wish to hold on to these glorious days of glory as they may not last forever.

I hope that this answers our readers question and if you have anything you would like to know feel free to Ask William
