PepsiCoCaffeine Free Mountain Dew, Diet, 10 lbs

It’s so absolutely frustrating that PepsiCo doesn’t give a hoot about its many thousands of faithful customers who have enjoyed the caffeine-free version of Diet Mtn Dew for decades and are now left high and dry in some regions of the US. I can no longer consume caffeine in any form without getting extremely ill so I have been drinking this MD exclusively for a very long time. It was widely available until COVID came along. Luckily I had a friend in NorthCarolina who stocked up about 36 12-pks for me last spring and I took a quick trip from my home in Michigan to pick it up. Now that it’s all used up, I’m back to buying it from Amazon. It’s frustrating and expensive, however Beach Grocery has been fantastic for not price gouging and for fast shipping. I love that seller. The product is always fresh with a long expiration date. Very satisfied with the product and with Beach Grocery but I still really hate PepsiCo for putting us through this…..

Fast ship, great product.

Fresh - still 2 months from expiration. Would buy again.

Love Diet Mountain Dew Code Red, very hard to find in regular stores.

If you’re like me, and you can’t have caffeine anymore, this is pretty much the only way you can enjoy the sweet wonderful taste of diet Mountain Dew. It’s a little pricey, but when you want to do the dew, it’s worth it.

My favorite beverage, but I haven't been able to get hold of any locally. Don't like paying $2.00 a can! I might just have to give it up.

While I’m like the many others that think over 20$ for a twelve pack of soda is a bit ridiculous, I guess I’m even more ridiculous for having “verified purchase” on this review. The price only made sense to me as it is a discontinued flavor. Everyone has had at least one food they loved all of a sudden disappear, you do some google searching and find a tiny PR from the company talking about how it’s been discontinued and that’s that. All you’re left with is that small paragraph giving you a slap in the face as a cold, bitter reminder that capitalism is worth more to the CEOs and stockholders than continually and successfully pleasing a majority of their consumers. But anyways. And by ‘majority’, I mean only you because all anyone ever does is look out for number one and that’s why we’re in this mess. Your favorite product is gone. It’s not coming back unless the company decides that one flavor is somehow special enough for a “throwback”, or aka an attempt to boost sales to make shareholders happy this quarter, Election Day is coming up. Your happiness isn’t important to them. You move along with your life, once in a while a memory of the product comes to mind or you find yourself inquiring, “do you remember that?” Now with mt dew, I feel we have all dealt with this trauma far too often and far too long. Sure, they keep some flavors around. Sure, they bring some previous flavors back for occasions. But how many times have we found the perfect carbonated sugar syrup blend of artificial energy from our favorite brand just to have them take it away before we can even remember to stock up like it’s coming up on the release date of our favorite game. Whoever I bought this from obviously is taking advantage of this flavor no longer being produced for consumers like you and me, but I don’t mind throwing in the extra for the time spent and storage room it took to keep this around so I could surprise my husband with his favorite soda last holiday season. It came Saran plastic wrapped and everything, y’all had me rolling. Gotta hold that ancient mini heart attack in a can together. We’re fortunate enough to live in a world where sometimes we get lucky when trying to find something special, whether it be for ourselves or others. No matter what it is. And that’s something money can’t buy. So purchase the drink if it makes you happy. Rest.

It taste like you would expect. Diet soda that is available today does not usually include flavors such as this. As a diabetic I was curious to see that this product was available, I had never actually seen it in a store. It was good as expected, but not worth the exorbitant prices that it cost to have it shipped to me!
