I know quite a few people who have serious Coke addictions. They will simply refuse to drink any other brand and they go through Trumpian levels of the stuff daily. I don't know what it is about this particular brand. I've never met an RC head, but Coke heads are a dime a dozen, unlike the ten bucks a dozen their drug of choice charges.
Mountain Dew. Has more caffeine than coffee.
Does it? Mountain dew has like 50-60mg of caffeine per 12 oz can, where an average 8oz cup of coffee can have somewhere in the 75-100mg range. A standard double shot espresso drink will have anywhere from 75-150mg.
Also, I don't think the caffeine content is the thing to worry about at any rate, I'm more concerned with the 46g of sugar per can.
Fwiw... Mt Dew Zero has 68mg/12oz. I think regular and diet are 55ish.
