Super strong flavors and unnaturally bright colors. I had some Mountain Dew Code Red yesterday, and my god, it looked and tasted so wrong. I'm pretty sure it would have glowed under a black light. And the taste was just overwhelming. I don't see how people can drink that with their meals. It was like drinking straight liquor except instead of alcohol it was sugar. I'm glad I only got myself half a glass, because that's all I could handle. For context, I do eat junk regularly. Frozen pizzas, fast food, enough hot dogs to make you sick, mac n cheese.... All this processed crap, and I still can't do Dew. I don't know how fatasses do it.
