Got no sleep last night due to house shopping/etc. Had to drag my sorry butt to work this morning. Thought of purchasing my usual can of Monstar/Rockstar/battery acid, but was lazy enough to not want to go down a flight of stairs in my building to do it. I had quit drinking Dew many years ago, and caffeine all together for that matter... and I remembered how woke up I got after a bottle of it... so I wandered to the soda machine and purchased one.

MAN- this stuff is BAD. I had some throwback MD not long ago, and it was pretty delicious, but this synthetic sugar garbage is AWFUL.

/end rant.

That's throwback dew. It's not the same. Throwback is delicious.

I must have OD'd on Dew when I was in High School. Use to drink cases of the stuff for all night parties or when I was gaming. Pretty much stopped drinking it when I joined the Army. Now one drink is a enough to make me feel very sick.

The best description I have heard of Mountain Dew is (I believe it is an Adam Corolla saying):

"Nectar of the tards"

MTN DEW is the stuff. Throwback is way more better!

I saw the throwback stuff a few months back (I think), but not being a pop drinker never got any. Are they still selling it? Might be worth it to try, just to taste the difference.

I used to like Mountain Dew a lot when I started travelling to the US (12-13 years back) but for some reason the memory tasted better than the current stuff. Does anybody know when they started using HFCS instead of sugar?

Oh God, I didn't even notice that! When did our society become SO frickin' lazy that we can't even spell Mountain anymore?

Yeah, I read that and was like WTF? I started working two jobs, and not being able to sleep, so I got onto monster/rockstar to keep me awake.

As soon as they found out it was cheaper.

From the department of mis heard lyrics: "When you come to me in a submarine" How deep is you love by the Bee Gee's

I haven't been able to locate any. I usually ferret a few cases away when I do find it for rainy days and whatnot. I do that with peach Nehi too, since I can't find it ANYWHERE north of the mason/dixon. Any time someones' in the south and they can get some, I have a few cases delivered to me.

I've been off of caffeine for about 4 years now. If I have a single bottle of coke or cup of coffee, I get really wired.

This post is so going to the mis heard lyrics website. but I could see how you could mistake a boy named kettle for a boiling kettle.

For a LONG time I thought it was boy named kettle, it's funny because he as stoopid as me!

I am still waiting for an official Mountain Dew/Doritos pairing guide. I want to eat my Fiery Hot Ranch Taco Doritos, but I simply don't know what to drink with it! Help me PepsiCo!
