The Many Uses of Mountain Dew 

You may think that Mountain Dew is only to be used as a plain old soft drink. But that would be denying the many purposes that Mountain Dew can serve in your life. It's not only a beverage to go with your mid-day meal.

Mountain Dew can be added to cake recipes to provide a tangy citrus flavour you're sure to love. Just add a can to your favorite recipe and find out how much flavour it adds to your sweet desserts.

It can also be used to mix a killer cocktail. Mix 1 shot of vodka, 1 shot of triple sec and 2 shots of mountain dew and you have the perfect citrus cocktail that's sure to be the hit of any social occasion.

By adding sugar, lemon juice, and pectin to Mountain Dew, you can create a tangy jelly that will liven up any meal. Spread it on a scone and you have the perfect addition to breakfast.

 

You can also place a can of Mountain Dew in the cavity of a chicken while your roast it in the oven. The liquid will help to keep the chicken moist while it becomes infused with the citrus flavour.

Finally, you can mix a mean Mountain Dew salad by mixing 1 ½ cups Mountain Dew with lemon and orange gelatin, marshmallows, pineapple and bananas. This is the perfect side dish to any picnic or potluck.

You don't have to stop here. Go ahead and order a case of Mountain Dew. Then you can experiment with its sweet citrus flavour and create new recipes of your own.

Myths About Mountain Dew 

With a beverage as popular as Mountain Dew, there are bound to be some myths that get circulated. And there are several myths surrounding this tasty beverage. But you don't need to worry - you can find out the truth right here.

Does Mountain Dew glow in the dark? Many people have claimed that it does when you mix it with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. While you may have a major mess on your hands, you're not likely to see anything in the dark. This myth is absolutely false.

Does Mountain Dew cause your sperm count to drop? Many people who hope to bear children will be relieved to find that Mountain Dew does not in fact affect your fertility. It was once circulated that the beverage contained chemicals that caused the male reproductive system to shrink. Yellow #5, the ingredient in question, has been deemed safe for the reproductive system.

 

This is another myth debunked by modern science. This is good news for those who hope to be able to bear children. It's bad news for teenagers who once believed that drinking Mountain Dew was a form of birth control. Sorry, boys.

While these urban legends can give us some entertainment, they're certainly not true. You can count on Mountain Dew to be a refreshing drink that gives you quick energy, but it doesn't perform any strange scientific miracles.

Feel free to grab your own case of Mountain Dew and put these myths to the test. You're sure to find out they're false, but they might provide some entertainment value.

"The book is an extremely interesting read whether you care about Mountain Dew or not. I would recommend it to anyone. The story, Mountain Dew, could easily pass as one of the most entertaining case studies I've read. The book is very well researched, well documented and includes great old B/W pictures from the early years of bottling."
