A Dr. Pepper Shortage is Upon Us
There are many things that the grocery store has run out of during this pandemic. Toilet paper, sanitizer, wipes, brisket, and now this?
Dr. Pepper posted this message on their Twitter page yesterday. Stating that the shortage applies to all flavors of Dr. Pepper, including the newest flavor Dr. Pepper and Cream Soda, according to the brand. This situation is all too familiar to the folks at Charmin. they responded to the Dr. Pepper tweet in a humorous way.
Dr. Pepper is not my personal favorite soda out of Texas, that would be Big Red! Which pairs perfectly with a Barbacoa taco :) Anyone else?
Here is the post that got rumors swirling
In case you didn't know here is a little more information on why this is happening. Beverage companies have been hit with a shortage of aluminum cans as soft drink and beer consumption has shifted from restaurants to homes amid the coronavirus pandemic. Can makers weren’t prepared for drink consumption to change from fountain service in restaurants to home consumption.
So in summary, go get you some Dr. Pepper, while you can, because you know shelves will be empty very soon, if not already.
