I forgot about the Baja Blast. That is one Mt. Dew i don't like next to diet.

Pepsi probably had some other formulas for soft drinks that would be hard to market. I like MD livewire but it tastes nothing like the original. So they probably used name/brand recognition to see how well it would go over. I am sure that MD Livewire by any other name would not have sold.
Code Red is just plain OK. Its not bad and I drink it quite often but I am not impressed with it enough to choose it over original or Livewire. Baja Blast was another "just ok" flavor but it was nothing like the other 2.Comment

Every once in a while, a H2 with big chromie wheels and blaring music shows up on campus and gives away free mountain dew samples. The cans are blank except for whatever they are calling the latest concoction. Its pretty funny that so many people flock to it and down whatever they are giving out because its free!!111 That being said, i have had many, many cans of mystery drink.

my coworker just bought a case, and we're gonna crack some open this afternoon to revel in its intense flavor.
That said, Baja Blast is my favorite variety. I generally don't like soda--too syrupy and sweet. I used to drink a lot of it, but now I barely have any.

And that's a bad thing how?
I have distant relatives in Georgia, I visit them every couple years & they always send me canned stuff like pickled figs & peaches.....mmmmmm. And when I'm done eating them, I got another drinking cup.
I got nothing against the South, I actually prefer the pace of life to the PNW.
I was born here in WA, but I nearly bet I'll die in the South.
And red is a flavor, you know you know what I'm saying too - so don't even pretend.
IDK where all they are selling this stuff - we have Haggen's as a grocery chain locally - that's where I found it.
Note where I'm from. I don't have anything against the south. Black people usually identify flavors by colors. Just been my experience. Maybe they were raised to identify things by color?"We praise or find fault, depending on which of the two provides more opportunity for our powers of judgement to shine."Comment

OK, just checking. Besides, I sort have gotten the feel from my times in TX that there's "the South" & Texas - and some of the TX folk have had sort of a superiority thing going over being a Texan too.
IDK, I'm white & Mexican, but we all call flavors by color - Like me & my sis always just order "white soda" if we want Sprite or 7up, and "dark soda" is either Pepsi or Coke. Dr. Pepper is Dr. Pepper tho.
We call most things by color aside from Klas kool-aid (Mexican brand of Kool-aid), too many flavors to do it there. Pina flavor is the bomb BTW.
You bring up a point though, I guess the few blacks I know up here do it too.

I hate normal Mountain Dew. Code Red was ok but there are better sodas out there. However, I'm quit soda cold turkey a few weeks ago. I just can't deal with the caffiene/sugar anymore.Comment
