Re: Suggestions to replace Mtn Dew ?

Q4U,  TAB was the best. I used to go to the Ground around every Friday and order a burger and 2 Tabs. TAB just never took off. I suspect it didn't have the corporate backing like Coke or Pepsi.

I like Mountain Dew. I drink one 12 oz can with my lunch. I used to get those 7 oz cans and would drink that but the small cans are so expensive.

TAB was produced by Coca-Cola.  It was replaced by Diet Coke in the 80s.  To answer your question, replace the Mountain Dew  with fizzy water with a little bit of fruit juice.

when I told relatives at a family dinner I was drinking three 16.9 ounce Mountain Dews a day everyone flipped out on me. I told my niece I've been drinking these for years. Used to be a "Tab" gal in the 70s, switched to Pepsi for a while and found Dew in the early 90s. I don't like the latest fad of scolding people over what they eat - I'm not a gym rat never been. Much like the cigarette frenzy in the 80s and 90s. It used to be you could smoke anywhere back in the glory days of the 1950s. Now they are after Soda, really ruined the dinner made me feel guilty.

Not clear ....   Are you drinking it for the caffeine?   At this dinner, were people more concerned about the caffeine ... or the excessive sugar?
