Cabo Bob’s Burritos in Austin, Texas didn’t start out HFCS-free. Owner Don Brinkman loved Dublin Dr. Pepper, a cane sugar version of the original and decided to bring in Dublin’s other sugar-based sodas, Sun Crest Orange, Triple XXX, NuGrape and Big Red, mostly for the nostalgia factor. Once he had an HFCS-free soda fountain, he says, it just made sense to create an HFCS-free menu, too. He did it by making tortillas, salsa and barbecue sauce—which often contain HFCS—from scratch.

I ate there last week, great food. Love the idea. I saw a lot of places in Austin that had sugar-soda and sugar soda machines. Even HEB there carries sugar soda versions of their store brands, and it's not bad.
