The manufacturer said they did taste tests and found that people couldn't tell the difference between that made with sugar and that made with corn syrup. I think a guy in Texas bought the original Dr. Pepper bottling plant and still makes a version w/sugar. They still make a few sodas w/sugar. A good example is draft A&W Root Beer, which is still made in the restaurants from scratch with sugar (but the canned version is made w/corn syrup).
