Mello Yello all the way! Mountain Dew's too sweet for my tastes ... I like Mello Yello's subtlety ...

Whatever happened to Squirt?

Ok, this poll is quite strange, but I jumped on it because I am a fanatic about my Dew.

However - I am a "Diet Dew" drinker. It was a tough transition, but since I down like 6 or more a day, it saves from getting that spare tire.

I used to like Mello Yello when it was in the Yellow can - anyone remember those days? Before they turned green and started putting "real juice" in it. I used to down TONS of the stuff, but the day they changed the can and how they made it I started gagging on it. Now I can't drink it at all - it actually makes me sick. Strange, huh?

So.. I moved on to Dew, now Diet Dew. I can't live without my Diet Dew.

Strange Poll...

Mellow Yellow? They still make that? I'd have to say Dew all the way... Squirt? That's not caffeinated, is it? You gotta have some caffeine!

The real question is who likes that Code Red or Live Wire stuff? My opinion - Code Red is odd, but not bad, like a weird version of Tahitian Treat. Live wire = nasty. Like Minute Maid orange soda gone bad.

I like to mix Dew with OJ for a morning drink whenever coffee is not available. Sounds strange but it actually tastes very good.

Gotta' love the stuff!

That's exactly what I have for breakfast when I'm on the road for work and know I need to be a little healthy and a mostly awake!

Mello Yello is awesome! But in Colorado you can't find it! Whats up with that!

I suppose the next poll will be the best comic superhero!

Because he was too tired from riding to his local mountain bike trail rather than just driving there?

I caught an episode of Justice League recently. It's a team comprised of Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman and other notibles.

Batman's the *only* one who can't fly! It's funny as hell.

In one scene, everyone leaps into the air and flies off. Batman's left on the ground to fish around on his belt for a cable hook, shoots it up into the air to keep up with them. You could almost imagine him muttering under his breath obscenities at the others.

That's why Batman's *my* favorite supherhero, 'cause he's just a guy with cool gadgets. No special flying powers, no super strength, no x-ray vision ... just some grappling hooks, body armor and ... well, I guess he did inherit a small fortune.

Actually, I like to think that Batman's special power is Super Abandoned Child Syndrome! He's messed up in the head, another reason he's so cool.

I voted for Mountain Dew dewd!
Does anyone remember the theme song from Mellow Yellow (back in the day)?? I have one in my head, but I asked my wife and she laughed and said that was from something else.

Ever shake up a can of Dew and open it? I've heard that it won't spray all over. Of course I'm too chicken to try it.
