I spent way too long trying to find Dr Pepper

Too expensive, apparently.

[–] badhops 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Zevia is definitely not cheap

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

It's just as expensive as regular soda around here. It's like $9 for Dr Pepper and $10 for Dr Zevia.

Out of network...

I feel like calling your soda "Real Dr" is kind of pushing it.

My favorite creative store branded Dr Pepper is Kroger's The Fizzicist.

DR. Skipper looks like it was designed by me in 4th grade. That looks like the kerning on every poster project I ever made.

Right?! Honestly the most remarkable part of the whole image to me is how totally ass many of the designs are. Dr. Shasta is egregious as well.

Well they’re competing on price and bad design communicates corners were cut, maybe?

Ya know, that's super insightful and I bet there's something to that. Our brains are so strange, and marketing (as an industry itself) has gotten to know them so well.

I love it. Word Art-core...

It looks like they didn't think about the size of the can before they started printing the word, and started to run out of space lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

I prefer to self medicate with coke.

I see you got a German celebrity there

And they're all just about as pallatable
