As many of you heard from me, The Big Bang Theory is the absolute best nerd sitcom ever! I have successfully managed to get other people hooked on the show. That said the lastest person to get hooked on it, noticed something interesting. Below you see the typical drinks that our favourite nerds order.
The first thought on seeing this shot is, “Oh! Sheldon drinks Sprite. Lenard likes Diet Coke. Howard always drinks Dr. Pepper and Raj picks 7up”. Unfortunately, you couldn’t be more wrong. Well at least you got the message that was being protrayed, but did you realize that it makes it a mix of Coke and Pepsi products? How can that be you’re thinking? May be they finally are co-sponsoring something. But before jumping to that conclusion, let’s look carefully.
That is not Dr. Pepper.
That is not Diet Coke. And though Sheldon’s drink looks like a Spirite it has no name on it.
Finally, I believe that says 7on.
Amazing, no? I actually missed it all the time, but Ruh didn’t. And once we noticed Dr. Peeper, we started paying attention to the others. Interestingly enough when Lenard picks a Vault, the name of the can is covered with a big V.

Wow. That is awesome and just makes me like the show more for some reason.
I hate when shows don’t use real names or real product names. They do it a bunch on CSIs and Law and Orders with made up university names like Hudson university among other things.
