You
know...a long time ago I stopped drinking Mountain Dew with caffeine in it. I'm
kind of addicted to the caffeine free variety, though.
There was a long while where I could drink a
Mountain Dew (with caffeine) right before going to sleep. And heaven forbid I
not have a Dew when I traveled! I took it with me because most of the people I
stay with don't drink it.
Well, I decided that, really, there is no need for all that caffeine and I should stop. So I bought the caffeine free (unleaded) and drank one regular in the mornings, then stuck with unleaded the rest of the day. I didn't go through horrible withdrawals, but my body got used to not having so much caffeine in it. Eventually I got rid of regular completely.
But every once in a while I run out at home and can't make it to the right store so I pick up some regular. I did this several weeks ago, and, since I bring a couple cans with me to work I had some of the regular in the work fridge.
This morning I have my unleaded, as usual, but forgot that I didn't have more unleaded at work, so after lunch I pulled out that last remaining regular Dew.
Blech! I haven't had a regular right after an unleaded and, wow, the taste difference is there! I don't remember noticing it before, but...blech! It's not as bad as the aspartame taste of diet drinks, but it's close.
