I, clearly less of an expert than I had imagined, am unfamiliar with the Supernova or Pitch Black flavors.

Mountain Dew is a land of contrasts. I have had flower sodas from Indonesia that taste better than the Mountain Dew USA edition that was a Wal Mart exclusive flavor that ended up in the bottom of a trash can because no one in a group of four could drink a second can let alone a third to finish off the twelve pack.

I got some baja punch and it is pretty good. Easily in the top half of Mountain Dew flavors.

Baja Punch tastes "orange" like grape drinks taste "purple". Not in a bad way, I liked it quite a bit, but it is in no way a natural flavor.

i have one memory of when i was a little kid at the park with my dad after a soccer game or something and there was a soda cart guy and my dad bought us both cactus coolers, cans, and it was hot and i was thirsty as hell and it was divine. thats prob the best (and only) Soda Memory i got in this dusty filing cabinet I call a brain.

I was obsessed with Pepsi Blue back in 2003 and was so disappointed when it was discontinued. I just picked up a six pack seeing that it's back and can report: still pretty tasty. Super sweet though, obviously tons of sugar which hits different in my 30s.

My favorite high school "cocktail" was Pepsi Blue + vodka so I might have to buy a pint for nostalgia next weekend.

Did anyone ever drink Soda Shaq? It was a Shaquille O'Neal collaborative soda or something, his face was on it anyway.



I only saw it around for a year or so, and it was loving great and then it was gone and I still miss it whenever I am in a gas station. It was far better than it had any right to be. Starting to feel like I hallucinated it all, except there are results for it online.

my ex-wife loving loved the stuff. we were friends with the manager at a 7/11 & we had her ordering a few cases a month that would just go directly to us because nobody would buy it off the shelf. "far better than it had any right to be" is an apt description.

Baja Flash sounds extremely my poo poo. I was a straight fiend for that Pineapple Whip freeze they had at T-Bell last summer. Also the VooDoo flavor was pretty good and reminded me of a dreamsicle kinda.

Sangrita Blast was one of my favorite Dews but I understand that this is not a universal opinion.

It was good and yeah it sort of came and went pretty fast. It was made by the Arizona Tea people.

I really like the whip flavors of Rockstar. They were my gateway drug into energy drinks. It is my job to bring beverages to my game group and Monster has better deals usually so I end up getting those instead. I really enjoy the Monster Pacific Punch (NOT Pipeline Punch) but it's gotten so rare that I get Mango instead because it's half the price. Monster Gold is pretty good too strange enough.
