A new US Candy & Soda store has opened about 20 minutes away from me and they sell all the US sodas in crates, including a 24 Pack of Mello Yello! It tastes SOOO good! I also bought a case of every Mountain Dew. I've got a 24 pack of US Mtn Dew, Throwback, Supernova, Voltage, Code Red, Whiteout AND Pitch Black in my giant fridge :D I'm drinking a can of Pitch Black right now.
I'm pretty sure this never went away here in the South, speaking for Georgia at least. Honestly I never payed attention to it so I might have just not noticed when it came back.
@WrecklessEating I agree, it does taste a little watered down almost compared to regular Surge. I do miss it though, I wonder why Coke ever did pull Surge. I heard rumors it had cancer causing elements in it.
@PicAFlic It was because it had double the sugar content of other sodas at the time. Now a days that wouldn't be an issue but that's why they released vault which is pretty much the same thing.
You know what Mello Yello almost tastes like to me, remember Surge? What's odd to, I remember, when Surge went off the market, Mello Yello started appearing on the shelves again.
So you do like wrestling :) Awesome video. I'd love to try Mello Yello but it's never been available in the UK. You guys should try Bovril. I don't know if you can get it in the US but it's basically a beef flavoured hot drink.
im in canada and I remember that we started having these in stores in the mid to late 90s and always had it since. Its so weird that we got it when you guys stopped having it. I thought moutain dew was the replacement lol
You should try to use the Roderick Strong rating system more often...different back breakers for different number ratings. Or not. Either way, awesome reference.
Here in Maryland Squirt just recently became available again, as did Mello Yellow. I love Squirt so much that I used to get my moms boyfriend to get it for me in Mexico whenever he made a delivery in Laredo, Texas. Now that's love lolz
@wutzernutzer according to wikipedia, the song came out in 67 and the drink in 79. They used to song for commercials for obvious reasons but it wasnt named after it per say.
5 out of 5. Well done. I used to drink that out of glass bottles. Super awesome. Try Cheerwine. If you haven't already. Cherry soda from North Carolina.
i dont think mello yello has ever been gone, when i lived in hanford cali they didnt have it, but when i got to virginia they had it everywhere...maybe its one of those coast lock type of things, like hardy and carls jr...what i REALLY want back is fucking surge...vaults a good substitute but nothing beats surge
Awww man... I remember it from when I was a kid even...
It tasted sooooo freaking good but haven't been able to find it sense! Everything nowadays is Mnt. Dew. Don't get me wrong, I love the stuff, but it is just not the same =3
Only heard of this from the song. And I remember hearing on some oldies radio show it had an alternative meaning , and the radio DJ wouldn't say what IT MEANT. I totally remember sitting there thinking wtf did he mean?????
Sun Drop made a comeback aswell. WE soda can from the opening....I would buy that but it would probaly taste nasty. A mix of Red Bull, Tamarind Juice, Durian Fruit with a touch of The source.
OH GOD MELLO YELLO! I miss MY so much, it's not mainstream anymore it's sold in obscure, family owned country shops these days in LA. Better than Mt. Dew. And Vault.
I think its still here in NC, also get Sundrop. I like it way more than any other yellow drink on the market, and the mass amounts of caffeine helps too lol
I remember Mello Yello. I thought it was still around. Maybe no in the mainstream market, perhaps?
Anyway, I recall it just being an alternate version of Mtn. Dew, from the competing brand. Kind of like Mr. Pibb is to Dr. Pepper.
I don't recall it being a citrus drink similar to Squirt. Isn't Squirt a Grapefruit flavored soda? I don't recall Mello Yello tasting like that. I guess I'll have to try it. It really has been a long time.
what do you mean they brought it back i thought its always been around.
