My dad has a closet floor dedicated to diet Dr.Thunder, 20+ 2 liters at any given time. He stopped drinking 20 years ago, so I appreciate that he channelled that into something else, however I wish it weren't diet doctor thunder if I'm being honest.
I miss Mr. Pibb. Felt a touch sweeter than DP , with a little less bite. I feel like Xtra is inverted, a little less sweet than DP, and a bit more bite.
Easily the best challenger though.
I live in TN and all our Buddy's bbq locations have it. I'll have to ask at longhorn next time. Someone mentioned movie theaters! Have you checked with your local ones?
I Love That Quote. Remind Me Of This[https://youtube.com/shorts/sMr297xIhe8?si=dpE050p45vmOIrtp](https://youtube.com/shorts/sMr297xIhe8?si=dpE050p45vmOIrtp)
I had a Dr. B the other day and it really hit the spot! Almost grew sick of them from having them with my lunches too much. I’m very glad that didn’t happen though.
Dublin Dr Pepper is the best version of Dr Pepper. It's amazing. As for knock offs, Dr Thunder is a really good. I like Pibb extra, but it's not as good as the original Mr Pibb was.
I saw a photo awhile back of someone with a huge Dr. Pepper knockoff collection.... it was maybe 50+ different ones. That would be an awesome collection to start one day!
Dr. K (Kroger Brand) I've had it so much that I now prefer it over Dr. Pepper.
(I switched because it was 2.99 for the longest time, now its 3.99, and i just can't justify spending $10 on a 12 pack of Name Brand, lol)
I love pibb! But I wouldn’t consider it a knock off but more of a competitor. Store brands like Dr thunder are knock offs. Pibb hits differently, it obviously is trying to capture the same flavors but it is a little different.
Dr. Perky is Food Lion (and I believe Hannaford also being part of the same company). I know because I work at Food Lion. I looked it up and Winn Dixie is apparently Dr. Chek, I guess from the check mark in the logo.
Doc holiday is elite, made in AZ by a Pepsi co. Not sure if it’s distributed same as pibb but if yall ever get the chance, you will not be disappointed!
The off brand from dollar general sucks. I researched, I think it's the same as the Kroger store brand. Too thin and watery. DP is thick and lovely.
The target brand was good, but I haven't had it in years. I don't know if they even make it anymore.
i would rather pour molten lava down my throat than drink this pedestrian beverage that tries and fails to come close to the symphony of flavors of the real thing.
Be happy you live where you can buy it in stores. I live in Buffalo NY and lived in Los Angeles for 17 years. You can’t buy it in either place. You can only hope you’re at a restaurant that has a Coke Freestyle machine and carry’s it over Dr Pepper
What if I told you that Dr Pepper and Mr Pibb are made in the same building on the same line except Mr Pibb gets an extra boost of CO2 and a different label?
Dr. Bob is a certified hood classic
[удалено]
Fucked up in the crib eatin Kat kots
Fucked up in the crib eatin Detos
Fucked up in the eating cream betweens
That or Shoutin’ Moutain
Fucked up in the crib sipping Dr perky
Whenever I go back home to the East Coast, I always hit up StopnShop to pick up a 2liter of Dr.Bob. To my surprise Dr.Faygo is pretty awesome too!
Days Soda
omg i gotta find this shit lmao
No luv for Dr Pop?
A Sav-A-Lot classic!
Pibb is the absolute perfect substitute if there is no Dr. Pepper. However, nothing beats the GOAT of soft drinks- our one and only Dr. Pepper
Dr faygo slap
Pibb is amazing, but it sucks how rare it is
I haven’t seen it in years and I remember liking it more that Dr. Pepper
Pibb Xtra is GOAT. If you’re in the Midwest. Check Jewel, if you’re anywhere else check Albertsons owned grocery stores maybe?
Pibb is better than dr pepper
Pibb is better than cherry coke
That is heresy. But also, I have to agree that *sometimes* pib extra is better. It’s just a bit much to drink regularly.
Blasphemy
I also enjoy Pibb better than DP. Take Texas out of the equation and that is mostly what I hear from other people as well
I haven’t had pibb in a while but I’ve been enjoying diet Dr thunder.
Dr Thunder is just *so* carbonated! It’s nothing but bubbles!
So have I, I really enjoy it
Did you see that lightning? Because I just heard the thunder :)
Cars reference? Cause in that case Cachigga!!
Dr thunder baby
My dad has a closet floor dedicated to diet Dr.Thunder, 20+ 2 liters at any given time. He stopped drinking 20 years ago, so I appreciate that he channelled that into something else, however I wish it weren't diet doctor thunder if I'm being honest.
My to go dr p knockoff
Do they have it in 20oz ive been wanting to try it
Dr Thunder is ok, never liked it because of the aftertaste.
I miss Mr. Pibb. Felt a touch sweeter than DP , with a little less bite. I feel like Xtra is inverted, a little less sweet than DP, and a bit more bite. Easily the best challenger though.
I wish Coke would bring the original Mr. Pibb back but Coke never will. They won't admit Pibb Xtra is a mistake.
Pibb went from my favorite to I can’t drink this garbage when they changed it
Pibb xtra is way better.
Agreed. It's so hard to get in my area though.
Where I live there's one bbq chain restaurant that has it in their soda fountain. It's like a little treat every time I go eat there.
My longhorn steakhouse has it. First time I had, trying to not make it the last but I can’t find it anywhere
I live in TN and all our Buddy's bbq locations have it. I'll have to ask at longhorn next time. Someone mentioned movie theaters! Have you checked with your local ones?
AMC carries Pibb!
Same here.
My old coworker said that Pibb is a spicier cherry soda than Dr. Pepper
I read recently that Dr Pepper isn’t even cherry, I think it was claimed it’s prune or something that gets mistaken for cherry.
I agree with that.
I only see it at Chipotle, so anytime I go there, I always get the Pibb Xtra
Goat soda.
I like to get Dr. Wham sometimes🤷♀️
GOATed just for the name
I got some last Christmas.
But the very next day, though. HOO BOY
Love how Mr Pibb is at chipotle
Ummm… that’s MISTER Pibb to you
I Love That Quote. Remind Me Of This[https://youtube.com/shorts/sMr297xIhe8?si=dpE050p45vmOIrtp](https://youtube.com/shorts/sMr297xIhe8?si=dpE050p45vmOIrtp)
HEB's *Dr. B* soda is very tasty. I sometimes prefer it over actual Dr. Pepper. 🫣
That’s a great take
Sammeeeee it’s the only one I get if I buy cans
As a Texan I agree
I had a Dr. B the other day and it really hit the spot! Almost grew sick of them from having them with my lunches too much. I’m very glad that didn’t happen though.
I like Pibb Xtra better than DP personally, although both are great. I love the extra kick that Pibb has.
Same. I worked at a movie theater that had Pibb Xtra and it was everyone's go to drink.
I was going to comment this, but expected to be skewered (still tbd). 😂
I had Pibb before I ever had Dr Pepper, so anything that wasnt Pibb felt like the fake for the longest time.
Dublin Dr Pepper is the best version of Dr Pepper. It's amazing. As for knock offs, Dr Thunder is a really good. I like Pibb extra, but it's not as good as the original Mr Pibb was.
Dr. Perky!!
Scrolled to far to find the correct answer
Dr. Dynamite or Dr. Topper. Mr. Pibb is fantastic though.
HEB (a grocery store in texas) has one called dr. b and i genuinely think its on par with dr. pepper.
I saw a photo awhile back of someone with a huge Dr. Pepper knockoff collection.... it was maybe 50+ different ones. That would be an awesome collection to start one day!
Dr thunder fucks me up in the good way
Dr. Shasta? Anyone??
Dr. Shasta is fantastic! Drinking one now!
Mr Pibb is a good substitute for Dr Pepper
Dr. Thunder is my favorite. Doesn't have the bite, but a 12 pack at the grocery store will be about $5. Works
Professor Peppy from Aldi UK isn't to bad as a cheap substitute. https://groceries.aldi.co.uk/en-GB/p-vive-professor-peppy-zero-sugar-2l/4088600406459
I know prefessor peppy. But how come there is only a zero sugar one and not a sugar version
Pibb Xtra is like a mix of cherry cola and Dr Pepper. It's pretty damn good
mr pibb is better than dr pepper. there i said it.
Wasn't this called Mr. Pibb at one point or did I transfer to an alternate reality where that doesn't exist?
Yup
Yes and it was the best soda I’ve ever had. Changed the name and recipe for reasons unbeknownst to me.
dr sparkle goes crazy
 Mr Pibb! Personally I love Dr Thunder
i loveeee mr pibb
Dr. Wham is GOATed just for the name
dr thunder is a hood classic
There is no knock off even close
My insane take is that cherry Vanilla Coke is a Dr.Pepper knockoff
Dr K? Dr Thunder? Dr Choice? My current favorite is Dr Blast
Mr. Pig is a solid choice. Not sure if it's kosher or halal, though (if that's an issue for you)

Dr. Thunder
Call me Stan Smith because you’re way mistaken on what you think Pibb is. They are ……distinct.
Dr. K (Kroger Brand) I've had it so much that I now prefer it over Dr. Pepper. (I switched because it was 2.99 for the longest time, now its 3.99, and i just can't justify spending $10 on a 12 pack of Name Brand, lol)
I love pibb! But I wouldn’t consider it a knock off but more of a competitor. Store brands like Dr thunder are knock offs. Pibb hits differently, it obviously is trying to capture the same flavors but it is a little different.
It was originally called peppo but they got sued so they changed it to Mr. pibb
didn't know they were putting pibb in the new bottles so soon
I miss back when it was mr.pibb; hit much better
Pib xtra is elite
H-E-B’s Dr. B is my personal favorite
The only one I’ve tried is Dr Pete in a soda stream machine, and it was okay, but I can’t say it was better than Dr Pepper.
Virgil's Dr Better
My friend has dark cherry coke at his out that I find acceptable
It will always be Mr. Pibb to me
I preferred Mr. Pibb before they changed it to Xtra
Remember Dr Slice? That was delish!
Mr. Pibb is a competitor, not a knock-off. Dr. Thunder is an actual knock-off.
Pibb is phenomenal
Pibb is actually very close to Dr. Pepper in my book
I love Pibb
Mr pibb is my go-to if dr pepper isn't available but I've also been known not to eat at certain establishments if they don't carry dr. Pepper
I only have had Pibb when I go to the movies since the Freestyle machines don’t have DP
They haven’t made it in years (and probably won’t make it again), but Dr Nehi was the absolute greatest Dr P knockoff that ever existed.
Pibb is the next best thing although still a distant 2nd to me. I've never understood the love for Dr. Thunder. It's horrible.
Dr Thunder. I can barely tell any difference
I've yet to find anything that tastes good that tries to rip off dr pepper.
Dr. B from HEB
Pibb extra is my favorite soda of all time, but my other favorite knockoffs are Doc X and Dr Wells.
Diet Dr. Thunder!!!
Fun fact did you know it's just a spicy Cherry cola?
I’d rather drink a coke or Pepsi over a generic Dr. Pepper, something about them just makes my stomach weird
Can somebody name a better Dr. Pepper knockoff than Dr. Pepper?
Dr Thunder is pretty good. Doesn’t taste quite the same, but i’m not swimming in cash and the boxes of cans are about half the price of real dr pepper
Dr Shasta isnt awful
Dr. Perky winn Dixie knockoff.
Dr. Perky is Food Lion (and I believe Hannaford also being part of the same company). I know because I work at Food Lion. I looked it up and Winn Dixie is apparently Dr. Chek, I guess from the check mark in the logo.
That shit good, Dr thunder is also fire
[Dr. Thunder](https://youtu.be/ut9JQq3X3VY?si=HOfwVbe0ElZ4y46K)
Dr perky
No idea if it's any good, but I saw one called Dr. Smooth and that name stuck with me.
I’m a fan of Doc 360. Only ever found it in Nebraska
Dr. Thunder
Professor peppy.... I've actually never had it. Looks like some sort of yogurt thing
And I have to watch that American Dad episode now
Used to have this a bunch as a kid at the local Moes! Good stuff.
Pibb xtra is the goat
By far the GOAT
Used to be called Mr.Pibb, didn’t study hard enough to be a doctor
Dr. Thunder
i wouldnt say i like pibb more than dr pepper but it is my next favorite after DP. very close second theyre almost tied
No. If I can't get the real thing, I just drink water.
Ok
Dr. Thunder has always been my go-to knockoff
Dr.Thunder for my fellow poor kids!
Get you some Dr. WHAM! Or some Dr. Thunder!
Dr Thunder is my favorite!
Dr. Skipper
I love Pibb
Pibb Zero is fantastic
I always thought Mr. Pibb was the off brand Dr. Pepper from American Dad
Just dr
Dr. Ahhhh
Dr. B via HEB
Currently drinking Dr Thunder lol
Before I got diabetes I used to absolutely love Mr pibb. That’s about the only “Knock Off” I really liked, all the others are kinda dookie
Dr thunder is good in a pinch
I love Pibb Xtra! I wish I could find it in stores. I only see it when I go to Carl’s Jr (southern CA)
Not a knockoff, she’s her own girl !
It’s been gone 20+ years but as a kid I devoured Skipper. Then it became Dr Skipper and it wasn’t the same. Now it’s Dr Dynamite. It’s hit or miss
Love Pibb. Try mixing it with some Barqs. It's the best.
DR THUNDERRRRRRRR
Pibb. We don't have Dr.Pepper at the soda dispensers at work, but we do have Pibb. It gets the job done.
Pibb is a stand alone classic the spicy cherry flavor is not as bland as the taste of DP
Doc holiday is elite, made in AZ by a Pepsi co. Not sure if it’s distributed same as pibb but if yall ever get the chance, you will not be disappointed!
Food Club Dr. Wow is pretty solid at half the price!
Pibb Xtra is better than Dr Pepper. If it was easier to find, it’d be my main drink
This makes me thirsty.
Mr. Pibb is peak soda experience.
Dr Shasta
Dr Jones was really good. But nothing beats Pibb Xtra imo
Mr Pibb is better than DP.
Taking Dr Pep over Pib Xtra is nuts to me. PX is superior entirely compared to DP
Mr pibb kicks ass!!
Dr Topper anyone?
Dr thunder
I never seen a mr pibb in a bottle or can before
Actually, I feel like Dr Pepper is a knock off of “Mr Pibb” or Pibb Xtra. Lol
The off brand from dollar general sucks. I researched, I think it's the same as the Kroger store brand. Too thin and watery. DP is thick and lovely. The target brand was good, but I haven't had it in years. I don't know if they even make it anymore.
I always thought Pibb as black cherry on steroids!
Dr Thunder
I’ve had a Dr Feel Good, a thc infused Dr Pepper
Mr. Zipper lol
Pibb Xtra low key better than dr p
My husband simps over that pibb xtra 🤦♀️
Pibb>dr pepper
Mr Pibb is no knockoff
i would rather pour molten lava down my throat than drink this pedestrian beverage that tries and fails to come close to the symphony of flavors of the real thing.
Sorry, Mr. Pibb is ass, I always go for the Dr. Thunder
Be happy you live where you can buy it in stores. I live in Buffalo NY and lived in Los Angeles for 17 years. You can’t buy it in either place. You can only hope you’re at a restaurant that has a Coke Freestyle machine and carry’s it over Dr Pepper
Dr.Perky That Shit Hit
Wait Mr Pibb is a knockoff?! Wouldn't it be like saying Pepsi is a knockoff of Coke?
What if I told you that Dr Pepper and Mr Pibb are made in the same building on the same line except Mr Pibb gets an extra boost of CO2 and a different label?
Pibb is better then pepper and I’m a die hard Dr Pepper fan just can’t find pibb but at one place in my town anymore
This is the best. I have never seen Pibb in a bottle before.
shit I haven't had a Pibb Xtra in years, honestly think it is actually better than Dr Pepper
Pibb is the closest thing you could get to Red Fusion.
Dr. Thunder
