Mountain Dew in the Morning?

Sure why not? If coffee addicts can drink the brown elixir any time of the day, why can’t Dew fans enjoy the same privilege?

Taco Bell is making Mountain Dew in the morning easy for you. Stop by for their FirstMeal A.M. Crunchwrap and pair this breakfast alternative with Mountain Dew A.M. Mountain Dew and OJ mixed fresh in the morning? Now that’s the way to start your day!

I wonder if you can get a Burrito Supreme for breakfast? For the health sakes for Hawaii residents, local Taco Bell locations are not on the list to serve FirstMeal along with Mountain Dew A.M. But just in case, keep your eyes out for these signs.

Hot Sun, Hanauma, and a Big Dew

What does the hot sun, looking at fish at Hanauma Bay, and a Mtn Dew have in common? I don’t know, but I’m glad I had this big Dew on hand.

Now That’s a Big Dew

That was my thought when I saw this new can for Mountain Dew (or Mtn Dew).

Sizing in at 24 fl oz, the can doesn’t look twice as large as two regular cans.

But that’s what you’re getting – twice the Dew for about $2. Available in stores now!

Saw this new Pepsi “King of Pop” cans at the store the other day. This larger can features a silhouette of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.

Live Blogging Diet Mtn Dew Supernova

Picked up the “new” Diet Mtn Dew Supernova flavor, and here’s my live first tasting.

0 minutes: Described as “strawberry melon.” The dang cap won’t come off. Fail! Drink expiration date of June 2011. Finally got the grey cap off. Drink feels thin, like other diet Dews.

+1 minute: The strawberry taste is there, not so sure about the watermelon. Hmmm, maybe the aftertaste washes in with a hint of watermelon.

+3 minutes: Purplish, pinkish color, not too carbonated, not overly sweet. The aftertaste “feel” as with other diet sodas is definitely there.

+6 minutes: Caffeine content: 36mg/8 fl. oz. so 90mg for this 20 oz bottle. First burp.

+8 minutes: With each sip, the aftertaste flavor becomes more predominant. Think my tastebuds have gone supernova and can no longer taste the strawberry melon.

+10 minutes: Going to nurse the rest of this drink. Like any other phenomenon of nature, experiencing a supernova once is good enough.

+35 minutes: Still drinking the Supernova. Drinking sips of water, that strawberry melon taste lingers.

And yes, the Supernova flavor is not new to the Dew family. I called the non-diet Supernova a pleasant sunset back in 2008.

Lime is the New Flavor of Autumn?

Pumpkin, gingerbread, and nutmeg are flavors I associate with Autumn. But what about lime? Crush is making a play for a new fall flavor with the introduction of a lime soda. What do you think about the green?

Throwing Back a Throwback Throwback

Gee Why Life, Passion caffeine, food, mountain dew, soda

I’m throwing back Mountain Dew’s new old Throwback made with real sugar.Â This is probably the same recipe for the original Mountain Dew Throwback, but this Throwback has a throwback can design.

The flavor of this Throwback is the same as the previous Throwback, smooth and flat, but when opening the can, it actually fizzled with dew spewing out.

And just for fun, some additional pictures of the new Mountain Dew Throwback.
