Jazzed-up Mountain Dew in Canada!

[John Q. Mayhem]

Fresca is good stuff.


Mountain Dew is Satan's urine.

Do you know - did they change the laws? Or has Dew just found a clever way around it?

I'm not Canadian but I seem to remember hearing something about it being possible because they're labeling it as an energy drink. Might have been some other country, but appending ENERGY at the end of the name and marketing it as such could let them bypass a caffiene restriction that exists for regular sodas but not energy drinks.

As far as sodas go, Sunkist is my absolute favorite, and its diet version is almost as good as the real thing (so I drink it whenever it's available).

Sunkist rules. What rules even more is Sunkist's Lemon Cola. I've had it ONCE when I was vacationing in Hong Kong. Figured it was a new thing that just came out. When I got back, I was disappointed to find that it doesn't seem to exist on these shores. This was before Pepsi and Coca-Cola came out with their lemon and now lime flavored colas. So naturally when the lemon colas came I was quite excited. Only to be disappointed again because those things taste VILE! They are far from the holy perfection that is Sunkist Lemon Cola. Coca-Cola's new lime variant is even worse. Argh! I want my Sunkist Lemon Cola!

I tired sunkist lemon and it didn't grab me - they sold it briefly at a drug store near where I went to college.

But somebody must have liked it!
