I need a new drug (No, this is NOT a Huey Lewis & the News post)
Mountain Dew Throwback is disappearing off of local store shelves like Houdini after losing a divorce decree.

So, that means that I have a problem and maybe you can help me.

I need a new non-diet soda, that comes in 2 liter bottles and doesn't contain the dreaded HFCS or "corn sugar", or whatever they're calling that crap today. One, it has to be American and widely available, because when I went to the local Super Mercado, their stock of Mexican Sprite was NADA.

One other thing, I'm not much of a cola drinker and citrusy flavas are preferred.

Sorry to be so picky, but I wanted to let you know what my tastes are.

So, do you got anything?

3. Make your own.
I'm a diabetic and can't stand the taste of any artificial sweetener. So I use carbonated water with the flavorings of my choice for that fizzwater feel when I need a fix.

5. Go to the Seper Mercado and try Jarritos orange soda.
Also available at Aldi, and really almost everywhere else. Really very tasty.
