ALso, even though 'Tastes MORE Like Dr. Pepper' sounds a bit odd to me too, and isn't really logical at first glance, the alternative, 'Tastes Like Dr. Pepper', would be even weirder, don't you think? The 'MORE' version also beats any of these variations that I just whipped off, trying to forensically re-create in my humble think lab, the creative process of the Dr. Pepper copywriter: 'Tastes Very Close to Dr. Pepper.' 'Tastes Remarkably Like Dr. Pepper.' 'Tastes Real Close To Dr. Pepper.' 'I Can't Beleive It's Not Dr. Pepper'. 'Memories of Dr. Pepper' 'A Close Facsimile of Dr. Pepper.' I notice the collection of 7 up clone sodas are missing the Canadian ripoff versions... Can't remember what they are called though. From Loblaws. Squirt Up? Splash Up? I see a new obsession coming on. Somebody stop me...
