<P>Dr. Pepper and 7UP are were owned by Cadbury Schwepps. They franchise the brands out. It may be with a Pepsi bottler one place and a Coke the next place. Most recent news is that they have been spun off to a separate North America group called Dr Pepper Snapple (yes that Snapple, the drink).</P>

I think Royal Crown Cola has been available continuously, but until recently I hadn't seen Nehi sodas for 20 or 30 years. I assumed the brand went defunct.</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

I was so elated I bought two, a grape and an orange. The bottles say "ORIGINAL NEHI" "The Tradition of Taste Since 1924." The bottles also say "BOTTLED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF DR PEPPER/SEVEN UP, INC, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">PLANO</st1:City> <st1:State w:st="on">TX</st1:State></st1:place>...." I didn't keep the caps, but I'm sure they said that the drinks were bottled in West Jefferson, NC! This really took me back because when I was growing up Nehi--and Coca-Cola as well--had a bottling plant in every small town or at least every town I visited in southern <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Virginia</st1:State></st1:place>. The uncle of one of my friends worked at the one in Farmville (I think it's an auto parts store now) and I got to visit often.

<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">There are varying stories, but most accounts agree that the name was given to honor Dr. Charles T.

His clerk at the store, Wade Morrison later went to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Waco</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">Texas</st1:State></st1:place> where he reproduced the drink naming it Dr. Pepper.

After Morrison became the owner of the drug store in <st1:State w:st="on">Texas</st1:State>, Charles C. Alderton of <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">New York</st1:place></st1:State> was hired to handle the soda fountain and mixed fruit flavors, finally blending the favorite drink now so popular. Robert Sherman Lazenby (1867-1941) president of DR. Pepper Company for many years is also credited with perfecting the flavor with a blend of 23 fruit flavors. The drink was probably introduced to the public on a regular basis about 1885, was first bottled in 1886. In 1888 it was bottled in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Waco</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">TX</st1:State></st1:place> by Artesian Manufacturing and Bottling Company.<BR><BR>Dr. Charles T. Pepper also had a son, Louis or Louie, an optometrist who was also known as Dr. Pepper. He worked part time in his father's drug store and also claimed to have developed the formula for the drink.<BR><BR>Another story is that Morrison had romantic aspirations on Dr. Pepper's daughter. Dr. Pepper was not in favor with the match and that is why Morrison left for <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Texas</st1:place></st1:State>. This story is probably not true because within the time frame, Dr. Pepper's daughter would only have been around 5 at the time Morrison left.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
