They sell some odd stuff to the Brits if you're calling a caffinated sugar beverage a lemon lime drink with no caffiene.

I like the original, I don't like Code Red, I loved Pitch Black (too bad they stopped selling it) and most of the new flavors are a resounding meh.

Get LiveWire. It is awesome in a can.
Well taste-wise there is no difference. And 7UP is marginally healthier anyway.

I'll stick with my crazy japanese drinks...
WHAT!? there is a huge difference taste wise. do british people have taste buds? honestly mt. dew isnt my favorite, but i gotta say the taste is way different from 7up

I tried Mountain Dew before... it's repackaged 7UP.
No, it's repackaged Squirt or Mellow Yellow, only it includes caffeine. Depending upon the particular interpretation, this can vary tremendously as the original formula that used Cane sugar has a significantly different taste than the new formula that uses High Fructose Corn Syrup. It should be further noted that there are many different flavors including Code Red (similar to Cherry 7-Up), Livewire (an Orange Soda), Voltage (a "berry" flavored drink that has no equivalent that I'm aware of) and several others.

You'll have to be able to deal with "citrus" flavor. It's basically the most fake tasting thing I think I've ever had. However, I love it sometimes.

I love Livewire. I also found that Game Fuel to be pleasantly offensive, though that flavor has long since been axed.

What the in blue hell are you Brits going on about? Dew tastes as close to 7 Up as a cherry tastes to the Moon.

Also this^

Mountain Dew is a Lemon-Lime drink. 7UP is just Lemon.

Maybe their sperm count will go up?

O.O
They will see you drinking it and instantly be turned on. That is the power of the Dew.

On a serious note, some of the things I've read in this thread have just been stupid...

-Mountain Dew Green (Aka "Phazon" in my gamer group, referencing how we think it tastes pretty bad, yet we can't help but drink it since it's the cheapest drink to buy in bulk at our local grocery)

-Code Red (not too bad, really. But there are far better cherry colas out there)

-Livewire (Oh please. I'd rather have Pepsi Blue Fusion back than this sad Sunkist knockoff.)

As for the new variant flavors, well, the fruit punch clone is decent.

Bit of an acquired taste, I think---my ex-wife was fond of calling it "cat pee". I love the stuff personally.
