Do you like Mountain Dew?



16 y/o Davis Cripe has died after his heart fell out of rhythm at Spring Hill High School in Chapin, South Carolina after drinking too much caffeine!!

He drank a large MOUNTAIN DEW, a McDonalds Latte AND an Energy Drink in just TWO HOURS prior to his death....

He had no pre-existing heart condition as he was otherwise healthy.

His heartbroken father spoke about Davis and said "Davis was a great kid and being his parent was a great honour to Heidi and me. I stand before you as a heartbroken father and hope that something good can come from this. Parents, please talk to your kids about the dangers of these energy drinks. And teenagers and students, please stop buying them. There's no reason to consume them they can be very dangerous"

Coroner Watts agreed and said high consumption of caffeine products can be dangerous as it may not be a danger to everyone but that it could have deadly effects on some people and its best to only drink in small amounts.

The daily recommended limit for a healthy adult is 400mg a day of caffeine which is equal to 4 cups of coffee or 10 cans of soda.

Based on what Davis consumed, he had about 434mg...

Do you like mountain dew?

Aren't the second and third vote options really the same thing? Like, if you don't like it, you're not going to continue drinking it. You're really curious to know who's never had a single Mt. Dew in their whole life?

I imagine the third choice is people who like Mtn Dew, but cut out soda for dietary reasons or something.

Maybe, but then he's lumping together the people who've never had one and the people who like it but don't drink it anymore for whatever reason!

Just feel like he's really Half-Throttling this one.

Also how many y/o was the Mt. Dew?

That would actually be appropriate for me. I loved Mountain Dew back in the day but stopped drinking sodas years ago.

EDIT: Also, Do the Doom.

Yeah, pretty much. I didn't mind Mountain Dew when I was a teenager, it was fine. But at some point I decided I should drink just juice and water. And when I found out that juice unless it's heavy on pulp is basically sugar-water and about as unhealthy as coca cola, I switched to mostly just drinking water, unless I'm feeling really fancy (when I'm feeling fancy...Thai Ice Tea, Shirley Temple, etc).

I mean, don't get me wrong, if I was thirsty and someone handed me a Mountain Dew, I'd drink it. My tastes have changed now that I'm old, but I imagine Mountain Dew would probably still taste fine. But like...will I spend money on Mountain Dew when I can have water instead usually cheaper? I'll take the water.

Nah, I think I have a really high tolerance to caffeine. One time, I took 1200 mg of caffeine (6 caffeine pills) and didn't even feel any effects from it.

This is pretty much the path I took too. Lots of soda and kool-aid in child/teen years, but then a conscious choice to switch to predominately water. Later on, tea would be added as a drink of choice. Every once in a while a soda floats my way, but I treat it like a treat rather than a mainstay drink.
