I'm English so have no idea what Mountain Dew is. But going by the name it sounds disgusting.

That's about what it looks like and about how much sugar is in it. Anyway, I think the better question is why no one ever drinks it. You'd think that'd be a better sell than everyone carrying around bottles of it they refuse to take a single sip of. |

^^^^Mountain Dew is available in the UK? I never knew that. Not that I'd ever buy something that actively annoys me with it's product placement even if it was something I'd otherwise drink. I think it's sold as Mountain Dew "Energy". The bottles are fluorescent green, so you won't have to look hard! The American stuff's much sweeter though. I got a bottle on the cheap from a Thai place that had a bunch of imported stuff, it was almost syrup like it was so sickly. |

On the sliding scale of sugary drinks if 1 is a standard Coke or Pepsi and 10 being the most obnoxious energy drink ever, Mountain Dew would be at about the middle. It's got more caffeine than most standard soda brands, but it's not an energy drink by any means. |

Nothing about Mountain Dew makes any damn sense.
Why in the hell are you calling cancer flavored sugar-water marketed to kids and frat boys "Mountain Dew". Mountain Dew sounds like some fancy spring wine or glorified mineral water or something.

Mountain Dew sounds like some fancy spring wine or glorified mineral water or something. Mountain Dew was an old term for moonshine. In particular (at least in my area, but not everywhere) a type that was heavily sweetened. I'll repeat: this definition varies by area and culture. At least in my family, my grandpa talked about "Mountain Dew" that was made for family gatherings around in the 1920's. It was a corn based moonshine that was mixed with whatever fruit was in season or available. So it was basically a toxic fruit punch, not that different from the current product  So there's an actual real connection with the name, at least in America. The old slogan was "it'll tickle yer innards" and had a hillbilly character carrying an old liquor jug like you'd see in Loony Toons. Hell, a lot of the advertising was basically a drunk hillbilly with a gun. Seriously.  |

Why not Diet Double Dew? It's half the sugar of a regular Double Dew. I think Scooby Dooby Doo should be the official mascot for Diet Double Doo. |
