Mountain Dew: The Bane Of My Resolve

Here I was, all resolved to not drink any more caffeinated beverages. No more carbonated beverages. No more fast food, no more soda, no more bad stuff. I can drive by McDonald's and realize that after I eat the slightly tasty Big Mac, I'll feel like a twelve dollar whore, only twice as queasy. After I eat a Subway sub, I'll be bloated and seven dollars poorer. But the one thing I can never resist for more than a week is Mountain Dew. What's up with that?

What's the bane of your resolve? And how can mine be something as simple and testicle-shrinking as Mountain Dew?

Caramel Apple Cider from Starbucks.

Its so fucking good.
And expensive as fuck.
But I cannot go more than a few days without getting one.

I have no resolve and eat what I please

I tend to give into Starbucks and Sbarros since they are both right by where I work and I get the discount hook up at both.

I'm with you on the Mountain Dew. I can give up most other things, but I crave that stuff every weekend. Ugh.

I feel you. Mt Dew is thing only thing I just can't stop drinking. Code red and live wire suck though! Don't belive the hype! Keep i t green!

best drink on earth...

please somebody make a drooling smiley face thing.

Yeah I used to "do the Dew" but I had to give up the caffeine cos of my Anxiety problems (yeah I'm a nucking fut) now I'm a Barqs man.
Oh and jalapenos. A day doesn't go by where I don't eat at least one thing with jalapenos in it.

Genesis Juice, or Odwalla Super Protein

i've pretty much quit mt. dew cold turkey... well, not really, i just replaced it with either jack daniels or southern comfort 100 proof as my drink of choice... i do agree that code red and livewire suck, though!

Hey, now, Code Red sucks and gives me a headache, but Livewire was fantastic. I love orange soda, I love the jittery, slightly nauseous feeling I get from consuming dangerous amounts of caffeine; this drink combines them both, and does so pretty well.

Granted, it doesn't taste like Mountain Dew; here's the rub: it's not supposed to. It's supposed to taste like a caffeinated orange soda. It succeeds admirably.

No drinks that I really fiend on, but I have to have twizzlers all of the time. Also, there is a chic-fila in my University and I can't go a few days without one of their chicken sandwiches.

I actually just gave up all my shitty eating habits, but I can't stop with the Mountain Dew. IN still drink a case a week. But no more fast food.

I have a coke now and then (save the dew for roadtrips cause they have a shit load of caffine effect), but soft drinks make me feel like shite at the end of a meal. As far as starfuckers is concern, I can't pay for a coffee that cost as much as a damn meal..I think its insane.

This makes me uber envious.
Chick-fil-a is my most favorite fast food on Earth and we have none even remotely close to where I live.
It makes me very sad.
There isn't much I wouldn't hump for a Chick-fil-a "Chicken flavored pickle sandwich" and some waffle fries.

I have a 36 case of mountain dew under my bed....

I'm becoming seriously addicted to TGI Fridays' potato skins with sour cream. Seriously.

conversation i almost had once. .
girl: mountain dew lowers your sperm count.
me: good

I've never heard of Chik-Fil-A, but it sounds like my kind of eatery. What do I base that assumption on? Absolutely nothing.

And yellow #5 doesn't actually lower your sperm count. It just causes cancer.




Ok, it doesn't cause cancer, either. Well, maybe it does. Hasn't everything but tomatoes been linked to cancer now?

Oh, but I did find this quote from the Mountain Dew Testicle-Shrinking-Rumour Debunking Site:

That's wrong on so many levels. Not only because High Fructose Corn Syrup and Caffeine have been shown to be harmful, but because eternity, my friends, is a long fucking time.

The rest is here, though it's not very interesting.

I'm with Spike...I eat and drink whatever I want. It usually involves bread and danergous quantities of JD.
