How deliciously refreshing is an ice cold Mountain Dew?

It is not at all refreshing. It is cloyingly sweet and looks suspiciously like propylene glycol.

Just give the cup, minimal ice cubes if any and cool water.
 
I remain the only person in Appalachia who dislikes Mt. Dew. So were I to get one, I would give it to you. Because I'm nice like that. The kind of nice who gives people things they like provided I don't like them. You can have all my blue popcycles too.

Word, sister-bro!

Who invented "blue raspberry?" ...and in that vein what taste-bud challenged moron invented artificial raspberry flavoring. It tastes like bile, not raspberries. They got the tart and the raspy tasting part but my stomach already produces acid.

Raspberry sherbet is gross.
 
Seriously I have an entire Wal-Mart bag full of Blue push-ups because nobody likes them. Blue is the shittiest flavor. I don't know what to do with them.
 
Well I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
White Lightnin, 'stead of Mountain Dew.
I took a little sip and right away I knew
as my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue.

Mighty mighty pleasin', pappy's corn squeezin'; whewwwwww, White Lightnin'.
 
About 4 years ago I decided to give up pop. I spent a weekend with the worst headache ever while I went through caffeine withdrawal. The Dew was my coffee, crack, and meth all rolled into one.

Since that time, I have allowed for the occasional pop, usually caffeine free like root beer, Sprite, or 7UP. And even rarer than that, I might have a Coke or a Cherry Pepsi. But never again will Mountain Dew ever cross my lips. And yes, I do miss it.

The worst cravings come with food. Is there anything better than an ice-cold Dew to wash down pizza? Or spicy Mexican food? Or my personal favorite, Cool Ranch Doritos with ketchup. No, there is not.

When I find out I'm dying, I'm going to ask for one Mountain Dew.

As I recall, propylene glycol ( not ethylene glycol ) was one of the labeled ingredients in the 1970s. I remember both reading it myself, and my chemistry teacher going on about it. I tried to find evidence of it on the internet, but only came up with this on the snopes forum http://message.snopes.com/showthread.php?t=2771

"I worked for Dr Pepper in the '80's, and it did contain propylene gylcol as a flavor stabilizer. Propylene glycol is used in antifreeze and de-icing solutions, but is considered non-toxic.

As with any antifreeze, it also demonstrates a sweet taste, which allowed Dr Pepper to use less cane sugar in the formula.

Since Dr Pepper has a combination of natural and artificial flavors, proplyene glycol was used to ensure that the flavor would not change if the product was frozen.

But because proplylene gylcol is also used in antifreeze, it was determined at a high-level marketing meeting in 1986 between Dr Pepper management and their advertising agency, that the potential liability of the public connecting their product to antifreeze would be catastrophic.

About that time, the Dr Pepper formula was changed to incorporate less-expensive high fructose corn syrup instead of cane sugar.

When that re-formulation took place, the propylene glycol was deleted. "

So, I'm guessing something similar happened with Mt. Dew. IF there ever was associated brain damage from the beverage or it's misuse as a mixer... It's a Boomer thing.
 
I've been told that mountain dew contains a chemical that lowers your sperm count.

Beer.

I don't think I've ever tasted Mtn. Dew. And I know I'm not going to start now. I've got enough bad habits. Consuming pop thankfully isn't one of them.
 
I like Mountain Dew. I like soda in general, cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper being one of my favorites.

I don't drink a lot of it anymore though.. If I have it in the house, I'll drink it. So in the interest of losing weight I simply avoid purchasing it.

So it isn't my imagination?? I always thought it had a similar lingering taste as antifreeze. And yes I have tasted antifreeze. Many times. If you are the little guy that can crawl under cars and can reach those awkward bolts with dexterity on the bell-housing... you spend a fair amount of your teenage years under cars. If it is an automotive fluid, I have bathed in it. Brake fluid puts me on the floor with stomach cramps. Be nice if people would not pump the brakes till I say when.
 
There is a lot of passion in regards to The Dew in this thread.

Both good and bad.

This might as well be an Obama topic.
