Dublin Dr. Pepper Being Sued By DP/Snapple Group

In a true travesty of justice the Dr. Pepper/Snapple group are suing fan favourite Dublin Dr. Pepper for myriad reasons. They don't like the fact that Dublin Dr. Pepper (the Original DP) shows up in distinctive bottles and is sold through the internet and beyond the corporate region they've deigned to proffer for the Dublin DP bottler. Here's hoping that this is resolved quickly, and in favour of the good folks in Dublin! Not only is their product superior to the mass produced swill that DP/Snapple usually turns out but it's an original and deserves respect.
