Default RE: The Hangout House

mountain dew does this every couple of years. They are trying to break away from Pepsi and become their own independant company XD!

According to the laws and contract signed by the creators of Mt Dew. In order to break away from pepsi they have to pay a HUGE fine, but also have over 8 different drinks to offer. They plan to be the first Soda Company to creat 8 different brands of the same name. Hense why each flavor is something like MT Dew XXXX rather then just changing the name to 7up or Sprite or Ciera Mist they would call it Mt Dew Citrius or some shit like that.

They can do this becuase the origional creator of Mt Dew was a College Student who created it as a Contest for Pepsi and Won, so they can pull out of Pepsi if they want to but it would take alot.

I only know this because i know 2 of the 9 guys responsible for creating the drink :P! I also have friends who work at the Coke company. Although pepsi company i have no friends. im a die hard coke fan XD!
