So, I have tried something new. Since finding Mt. Dew Throwback is becoming nearly impossible, I turned to amazon. Figuring I'd order a ridiculous amount and build a fort. Instead, my searching led me to Mt. Dew's Game Fuel.

I've no issue with the idea of energy drinks. It's just that for me they've always been nigh-undrinkable due to the flavor. Seriously, I don't know how people drink stuff like Red Bull unless it's an acquired taste along with the addiction to caffeine.

But this promised the original Mt. Dew taste. Intrigued, I ordered a case. I had one the other morning when I really needed to jump-start myself for work. It tasted like Dew with a bit of that energy drink after taste. Pretty good, all in all.

But did it work? I wasn't turned into a hyper-aware twitch monster, but I did notice an increase in my energy level and had a really good shift. Also, no crash. Although that could be explained by my eating a full breakfast about two hours after drinking.

So yeah, a good thing. A case will be coming to the desert with me.
