Hmm, read the last paragraph of this article - is it completely impartial?81.174.133.150 22:28, 30 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No. It was added by an anonymous IP whose other contributions around that date are not terribly reassuring, and it sticks out like a sore thumb in this article. (For subsequent readers, these are the changes made on 26th October 2005.) Removed. Anyone thinking of restoring them, please provide cites for "most famously", "acclaimed" and the storming of a nation on national tv (what on earth?) if you do so. I like cites. --Telsa 15:25, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

IRA

Rubbish, source cited is a 64 page childrens book, removed the paragraph as such.

I reverted the edit. A cite is a cite. Non-fiction childrens books often have good facts, editors from publishing houses make`sure of it. --Dave 12:02, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The cite is from a non existant page! Page 193 does not exist in a 64 page book!

PLEASE STOP REVERTING THE CHANGE! I AM REMOVING INCORRECT, UNVERIFIED RUBBISH!

Airfix glue

Took 'airfix glue' out of the ingredients list since this is quite blatantly taking the mick; and indeed tesco.com does not list this particular unpleasant chemical additive among the list of such (requires sign-in) in its version of the drink. Larkascending 20:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, what exactly is "manloid"? There is no record of it anywhere on the internet except in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.71.76.139 (talk) 03:57, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Regional popularity?

Are there any particular regions where the drink is more popular? I recall it being pretty widely available in Somerset back in the day (the '90s :) ). I never see it in Ireland though. --Zilog Jones 22:38, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anon vandal?

These edits were made by an anon whose other edits are vandalism. Can someone check them? .. dave souza, talk 23:50, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Related Tastes?

No idea why the subject popped into my head but upon reading the article I have to say I don't understand the taste comparisons. D&B was my favourite pop growing up. I remember watching Radar drinking sarsaparilla on M.A.S.H. and being completely gobsmacked when, on my first visit to Boston, I sought out "the best" place to try a good one. I thought it was a joke because it tasted so much like the nasty mouth wash from the UK dentist. I don't have any qualification as a taster but IMHO they're completely dissimilar. 71.54.192.245 (talk) 21:38, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Temperance drink

I would be curious to know the history of D&B as a popular drink in temperance houses. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iantnm (talk • contribs) 10:33, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nutritional value

What's the source of that data? I assume this soft drink contains quite some sugar/syrup and surely not "less than 0.1 g carbohydrates", therefore more than 2 kcal per .33 litres. --91.32.178.243 (talk) 11:56, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
