you could swear you can actually FEEL the corn syrup.

Interestingly, I've been told that Mountain Dew was the last of the big brand sodas to make the switch from sugar to HFCS (aka diabetes in a bottle). I did love it back in the day, but, yeah, it's kinda nauseating nowadays.

That thing about the prostitute was so not necessary.

omg dan. you've finally gone too far.

Sterling Clover (s_clover), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:02 (eighteen years ago) link

As punishment, you will not be invited to the LesBarbie Wedding.

k/l (Ken L), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:04 (eighteen years ago) link

it figures that it'd take Mountain Dew's involvement for that to happen

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Dan, it was the frosting on the MD cake. really.

Where did you come upon the six varieties of Mountain Dew?

I came upon the original elephant urine version in my childhood, as it was widely available, thought at the time I seem to recall preferring Mello Yello. That is no longer the case.

When I was 22 and in the military, I was ordered to travel from Monterey, CA, to San Angelo, TX, and I did this over a weekend, with the help of a cohort in a separate vehicle and many bottles of Mountain Dew: Code Red. Many times that summer and in the following months I would hear another of my colleagues, an enlistee from Guam, quote a line from "A Few Good Men" in my presence, trying to be funny.

When I was 25 and still in the military, living in a basement apartment in Maryland, I purchased two bottles of Moutain Dew LiveWire and started this thread.

Last weekend, we went to Taco Bell to get lunch in the middle of a road trip to North Carolina, and I acquired a mssive plastic cup of Mountain Dew Baja Blast. It hit the spot.

When I was 25 or 26 I discovered the original Mountain Dew Pitch Black in the cafeteria beverage coolers of the J. Edgar Hoover building. Now, almost a year later, I have found the sequel in almost exactly the same place, about 5 rows down and to the left just a bit.

"we got mountain dew and clam juice."
"ewwww! i'll take the clam juice."

Saga of sagas! Glad I asked.

Nonsense! Carry on, sir.

Half the time I can't tell whether I am reading this thread or the Plan My Wedding thread.

Mountain Dew was invented in Knoxville.

(This is mostly true.)

gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:10 (eighteen years ago) link

oh there's no wedding.

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:10 (eighteen years ago) link

i've tried diet and code red--both were disgusting. but the original is cherce.

perhaps we should toast with it at the WEDDING

mookieproof (mookieproof), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I really don't understand the massive amount of dislike for Code Red. I much prefer it to the original, though I think Dan might be right, Baja Blast is the kid at school that everybody likes.

TOMBOT, Friday, 9 September 2005 19:14 (eighteen years ago) link

(There are so many points in that last post of mine where I wanted to stop but it felt like demons were egging me on.)

(And yes, if Code Red was the color of Baja Blast I would have much less of a problem with it.)

The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:15 (eighteen years ago) link

omg dan. you've finally gone too far.

And people here complain about me. Sheesh. But he's actually not too far from truth. I had some last week because some eejit put it in the vending machine slot at work where Wild Cherry Pepsi was supposed to be, and it was, well, icky indeed.

Drink That Funky Pepsi, White Boy.

k/l (Ken L), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

God what is wrong with all of you people that you'd even consider putting these things into your bodies.

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:20 (eighteen years ago) link

You're the one marrying Tom.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:21 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm not putting him in my body either!

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:21 (eighteen years ago) link

I guess your mom hasn't told you about what happens on the honeymoon yet.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:23 (eighteen years ago) link

I.e., YOU WILL BE FORCEFED ALL THE MOUNTAIN DEWS.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:23 (eighteen years ago) link

ALL YOUR DEWS ARE BELONG TO US

k/l (Ken L), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:24 (eighteen years ago) link

THERE WILL BE NO WEDDING

WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE IGNORING ME

I CANNOT MARRY A PERSON WHO HAS DRANK ALL THE MOUNTAIN DEWS

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:26 (eighteen years ago) link

I love this thread.

Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:27 (eighteen years ago) link

ALLY YOU NEED TO QUIT DRINKING HATORADE AND SUPPORT YOUR FIANCEE IN HIS GOALS. TAKE AN INTEREST IN HIS HOBBIES.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:29 (eighteen years ago) link

I have also drank all the Frescas and all of the Squirts. Grapefruit flavored sodas get a bad rap.

TOMBOT, Friday, 9 September 2005 19:30 (eighteen years ago) link

HIS HOBBIES ARE STUPID

WHY DON'T YOU GO AND MARRY HIM IF YOU LOVE MOUNTAIN DEW SO MUCH

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:30 (eighteen years ago) link

I hated the kid in class everyone loved. I hate Baja Blast. High fructose window cleaner.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Thank you, Nick! I agree. I have also decided that I need to start playing World of WarCraft.

TOMBOT, Friday, 9 September 2005 19:31 (eighteen years ago) link

I'M SURE TOM SUPPORTS YOUR GIRLY HOBBIES LIKE BUYING PRETTY DRESSES, DISCUSSING TAMPON ABSORPTION, AND LESBIAN BARBIES. RETURN THE FAVOR.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Are you going to be hitting the TAB next?

jocelyn (Jocelyn), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I HAVE ONLY DISCUSSED TAMPON ABSORPTION WITH ANOTHER PERSON ONCE IN MY LIFE, STOP ACCUSING ME OF BULLSHIT THAT I AIN'T DONE. ALSO HE DOESN'T SUPPORT ME IN ANY WAY BESIDES GIVING ME ALL OF HIS MONEY.

I know, I know! But the other fucking Pepsi products available were much shittier, and at least it didn't taste like bleach (or tastes like the scent of bleach, as I've never knowingly consumed any), unlike the goddamned water fountains at the arena.

YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO THE UNION OF NICK & TOM

THERE WILL BE A MOUNTAIN DEW FOUNTAIN AND DANCING

Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:34 (eighteen years ago) link

Plus, it was a free complimentary cup and I didn't have (money) to pay $1.50 for a bottle of Aquafina.

MD Pitch Black II (black, "grape," sour version of Pitch Black)

I am intrigued! Anyone know if this available in Canada?

Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:35 (eighteen years ago) link

You should've offered to french the bodega man, I mean that usually works to get a free beverage.

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:36 (eighteen years ago) link

TAB is so dull.
Why don't other beverages come out with weird random assortments of made-up flavors?
I still haven't tried Sprite Remix Aruba Jam. The original Sprite Remix was pretty worthless.

TOMBOT, Friday, 9 September 2005 19:36 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't even like Mountain Dew! I just think Tom's sticktoittiveness is admirable.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:36 (eighteen years ago) link

He sets a goal, and then he ACCOMPLISHES THAT GOAL.

n/a (Nick A.), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:36 (eighteen years ago) link

Why don't you just buy a bottle of Karo and drink that.

Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Friday, 9 September 2005 19:37 (eighteen years ago) link

I have also drank all the Frescas and all of the Squirts. Grapefruit flavored sodas get a bad rap.

Now I'll drink to that!

MEANT TO TELL YOU

A road game my old band came up with driving back from shows was to try to top each other coming up with a more one up ridiculous combination of 3 things out of truck stop/convenience store. Usually a combination of food item, drink and then wild card.

Like I went into the Redimart and got me a Code Red Mt. Dew, a package of Ho Ho's and a bag of Spicy Corn Nuts.

One might reply with - I went into the Love's truck stop and got me a hot pickle in a bag, a pack of Cinnamon Dentyne and a King Cobra Malt Liquor.

Fun for the whole family or doom band roadtrip...

I've never made a Mtn Dew based cocktail, but recently tried a Gatorade Gimlet and it was pretty darn good

Andy the Grasshopper, Wednesday, 21 September 2022 16:30 (one year ago) link

not sure how it escaped comment, but the so-called Hard Mountain Dew not only has no sugar, it also has zero caffeine
a couple of them accurately present a MD-like flavor, the rest totally miss

Hmmm, what is this. Summertime packaging, making the logo look like a beachball? Maybe it's iced tea-flavored Pepsi? Not my thing, but ...

Wait. Easter's coming up. Nooooooo, it can't --- nooooooo.
