It takes some very weird people to have never drank a Mt. Dew before. There is truly some strange folks on here. Dude was livin' in a cave w/ Bin Ladin, drinking goat piss instead I guess.

I reckon that's why 9 out of 10 Hillbillies love it! ![[Linked Image from i.pinimg.com]](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/77/06/5a/77065a8f84062458b72382f8e4ea2d05.jpg)

Sundrop? I can’t believe some of you guys have even heard of it.
I hauled and unloaded thousands of cases of Sundrop when I worked for the bottler in Gastonia, NC. We were the largest Sundrop distributor in the US. Glass bottles and wooden crates were still used in the 70s when I first started. Nothing better than an ice cold Sundrop, made with real sugar, out of a glass bottle, straight off the production line.
Nowadays I can’t handle all the caffeine in it and have switched over to Mountain Dew but only every now and then.

Sundrop is the best drink out there, and I live in the heart of Cheerwine country. Cheerwine is certainly a strong 2nd!

When I started we also sold Nugrape, real Orange Crush in the brown bottle, Double Cola, RC cola and others which are long gone.

I’m sure we will be there. I hope Cheerwine never sells out to the big guys.

Mountain Dew is a breakfast drink, it has orange juice in it. Pour a little in your juice to spruce it up a little. When it first came out it had orange pulp floating in it. Ya I know, it's not too good for you.
Don't believe everything you think.

Got a small town bottler up here in Shawano Wi (pronounced Shawn-oh) that distributes Sun Drop in glass bottles and cans... I buy the cans... For whatever reason, It seems to taste better and has more fizz than the bottles...

I know a guy who is designing a robot arm for Microsoft. He is way past me in software, thermodynamics, ect. and knowledge of ketosis. And yet he drinks Mountain Dew.

He is way past me in mill operation, car rebuilds, and deer hunting. And yet he drinks Mountain Dew.

Pepsi and Coke are like foreign sodas.

I’d never heard of cheerwine. Looked it up and it sounds delicious, but I guess nobody sells it up here lol.
