Moon Pie and a Diet Mtn Dew

I used to drink a Mt. Dew almost every day. Now it's just too sweet. I'll still have one every now and then, but generally prefer a cola.
I never understood the RC Cola thing. It's never Moon Pies and Coke, it's always Moon Pies and RC Cola. Why? RC Cola has always been the laughingstock of colas, but when paired with a Moon Pie, it suddenly gets preferred over everything else? That doesn't make sense to me.
yes yes I know all about the RC thing But I was a regular Mtn Dew addict for a LONG time
Quit and lost 5 pounds in ten days
NOW it is Diet Dew all the way. I know it is bad for me but hey we all die right. Might as well enjoy the ride
Gonna grab another pie here today

The same reason that jelly on toast is very ho-hum but when you pair it with peanut butter it's dynamite. Some things are just meant to go together.
But since Coke > RC, shouldn't Coke be even better with a Moon Pie than RC is? That's the part I don't get. I've never paired either with a Moon Pie, so I wouldn't know.
Chocolate is better than peanut butter. But it simply doesn't goes as well with jelly.
Just shut up and take my damn word for it.
Well yeah but chocolate isn't peanut butter and peanut butter isn't chocolate. Coke and RC are both colas, so that's completely different. And no, I'm not gonna shut up. I'm not shutting up until I get a logical answer dammit.

Places still sell Mello Yello? I even like QT and I never even noticed Mello Yello.
BTW I believe it is VITAL to have the Mtn Dew in a glass filled with ICE...... merely chilling the dew bottle is not good enough IMO
Mello Yello is life, man. But it's a Coke product so maybe it's more prevalent down here in GA. I think Coke is trying to up sales in MY because they do it in a 16 oz. can for $.99 at the convenience stores around here.
you people do know that diet drinks overall are worse for you...in fact, all soft drinks will end up ruining you, but hey, they work wonders on window grease.
Sweetened with known carcinogens. Diets also trick your brain into thinking you're fulfilling a craving for sweets when you're not, which only makes you crave/eat more sweets than you would have otherwise.

Not true. I do love Mountain Dew, but all citrus sodas are good. Mountain Dew IS #1, but there's plenty of competitive players in the field:
White-out Mountain Dew
Code Red Mountain Dew
Mello Yello
Sun Drop (which we get in Atlanta now, thank God)
All are quality. Man, I REALLY miss Vault too.
Proper southern decorum dictates that moon pies are to be eaten with RC cola. It's what separates us from...well, from them, if you know what I mean.
I gave them up. I've had less than 10 soft drinks in 2015. I used to be a Diet Coke in the morning type of guy. And then I looked into how bad they are for me. So I switched to water. All day, everyday.
Love me some sun drop!
In fact the harris teeter here sells sundrop made as it used to be without corn syrup. Omg thats some tasty ish

Same for me, pretty much. I'll have an occasional soft drink every once in a blue moon, but 95% of the time, it's water for me.
With that being said, if Crystal Pepsi ever makes a miraculous comeback, then F water.
What's a soft drink? It's just called a coke. If you must specify it as a soda, that's acceptable.
Soda? That's what Yankees say. "Pop" in the Midwest. And in the South, it's either "coke" or "soft drink".
Nah, nah. Soft drink sounds lame. I maintain it's Coke or Cokes.
But as long as you don't call it pop, we're good.
That's just stupid. Coke is a brand name. Referring to all soft drinks as Cokes is the reason Southerners are perceived as morons. So stop it.
But yes, if I hear someone call it pop I will shoot them in the face.
What do you wipe your snot with? A Kleenex or a facial tissue?
I agree- they are all called Cokes, other than Cheerwine and RC. A diet Pepsi is just a different iteration of a Coke.
"Get me Coke"
"What kind you want?"
"Mountain Dew"
Such a conversation would be completely normal to me.
Don't be obtuse. It's not Kleenex or Band-Aid. It's has less than half the soft drink market share and isn't synonymous with the product in any other part of the country. And you know damned well if you pull up to a drive-through in the south and order a Coke, 95% you're getting a Coke and not a follow-up question.
Who is being obtuse? And riddle me this, perfessor. What happens if you walk into Bojangles and order a Coke? That's right- they give you an empty f'ing cup because they have no idea what kind of Coke you want.
Drive through windows are not the South. Although we have adapted, this is purely a Yankee invention designed for the least amount of human interaction as possible. Which I get, because who wants to interact with a yankee?
They give you an empty cup because it's self-serve, you maroon. I could order a sweet tea, or an unsweet tea, and get the exact same cup. And they don't want to experience more human interaction than absolutely necessary in their miserable jobs.
No, they give you a cup so they dont have to worry about what you meant by coke. And fast food workers are always pleasant and talkative with me- you just must be a dick.
