100 Years Of Soda Taste Test

Do we know when the first Mountain Dew was? Friend, let's talk about that mythical good day. Okay, Rhett, do you remember your first cold? Yes, you were there. He was a good model citizen. I waited until my 21st birthday and we had a 45 colt at a campsite, four people shared it among themselves. Hey, I remember, but I was talking about

soda

. Oh, today isn't really the first settlement we've tried anyway, so yeah we get it, but it's the first time we've tried famous

soda

s. team time I with two straight guys soda edition welcome to the random area each round we will search our cooler for a popular soda that was invented during a particular decade now we will try that soda and then guess what decade the soda was invented in by shuffling our Uzis punk until that exact decade, we won't miss it, everything is fine and whoever comes closest to the correct answer wins the revolutionary round, we play a game and the loser the game has to drink a super fast frozen soda to freeze the brain, come on Let's shovel, let's see what we get first, okay, woohoo, it's my wife's favorite drink, so in honor of her I'll drink it, hey, it's your best friend's favorite drink.

Is if? Greetings dr. pepper mmm hey and that sucks, I love it so much and you know what, not an ADD but not a sponsor. I'll say it because that's what we always say diet dr. The pepper

taste

s exactly like regular Dr. Pepper in my mind, that's why I love it so much, it's medicinal and I think it has some kind of medicinal qualities and a lot of these sodas started out that way. You go first because you won last time, which at least gives me the advantage. In this, you barely won last time. I think I want a technicality.

Technically good. Link. I think you are right, Dr. pepper was a medicine and cocaine contained cocaine. I've seen movies, this looks like something from the late 19th century, well the oldest you have is 1890 and then the la

test

you have is 1980, well the oldest we have is 1880, actually, yeah, there it is. Is there anything about 1890 that feels better than 1880? I have no reason to see what I can do. A gentle movement of the cash register takes you to the bottom. Well, you know you've backed yourself into a corner, which backed me into a corner. Don't put the baby in a corner because now I just have to play around, well not about this date, what about 1880?

Yes, I'm going to play, you're saying, just go through the center of the Christmas tree, no, I'm. I'm going to block you, well don't screw it up, here we go, oh come on, well if it's 1880 you might be closer, we might have to measure right, although dr. The pepper is a secret and is rumored to be kept in two halves in two different banks in Dallas, Texas. It's no secret that Dr Pepper was first invented in the 1880s. Okay, we have a measurement search. Oh, you're closer, man. Don't know. just measure just because twenty eight twenty eight and a half 38 okay thank you just pointing out that the established 1885 is all the greeting that can be on the can but I was reading the 23 flavors if I'm a connoisseur of even I know I feel very embarrassed take it yourself, ask well, my friend, and don't look at the cans, but don't look for any assaulted women, oh, that's all lemon, damn, that's all, I mean, it's a classic crunch.

Cola is definitely not as old as a dr. pepper because apparently dr. pepper is the oldest in the entire current flavor list, well let's look at lemon and lime, that's right, it's a bold combination AG two different citruses, yes, I think that's bold when you don't know if it's going to be explosive or just a try. I'm really thinking it was a gunshot, man. I have nothing to go on here except it's not 1880. I think this one is much later, hmm, nineteen fifty, you know, everyone says, oh, look at me, I have some citrus, yeah, that's how everyone talked in the 50's. yeah, the age of the citrus is fine, for no good reason, I'm going with the 1950, it could be 70, although I don't think it's earlier, so I'm going to split the difference Tim, stop, stop, stop, stop, what happened to you, seriously, a little. too aggressive yes, you are not used to dr. pepper, guys, you've got some pepper, a slide, it's a movie, a little extra power, so what do you think?

Yeah, I mean, you guys have free rein on the board, what's your aunt's bond? I think you are wrong. I think the 1930s is when I'm going to look for it because I feel like what happened was what used to be a different soda and then with the depression that they like, they ran out of the stuff that makes sodas have color and It became clear and they said, well it's a depression sprite so you think sprite was the first yellow soda you think it's yellow it's white it's clear buddy haven't you seen that glass of sprite? there's a little bit of yellow like you said it doesn't really matter because you're off the board so I have to do it What I do is get closer so I'm going to go right to the edge of you.

Oh red, you've done something wrong man, oh but now wait, I could win if it's 1980, you can win, that's the only way you can win while people have been obeying their thirst in spirit since those ads in the

years

90s, people in West Germany first invented Lymon soft drink back in the 50s, we're on time before continuing if you've been wondering what this mythical society is all about.

Oh man, now you go first and I should know a lot. about Pepsi because I was born in the Carolinas along with Pepsi I don't know about you, I don't think you were born in the Carolinas, no, I wasn't born in the Carolinas, but I spent quite a bit of time there, yeah, you.

I never went to the Pepsi plant? I never took a tour. Have you been to the Pepsi museum? No, I'm not interested, so I should know everything. JC Bradham, inventor of Pepsi. I think that's his name. Are you kidding? No, keep telling me information, yes. in the east and what year was that, hey, he, I think he worked in a pharmacy, you know he was like a soda idiot, so here's a deal. I think Pepsi was an answer to coke, right? and the coke feels old because of that whole cocaine thing. and they didn't really understand what was going on with cocaine, so I feel like this is you the 1900 1910 okay, I'm going to go in 1900 oh, that's it, oh, you really got it, I got you, that's right, okay , I've been thinking a lot. about shuffleboard, okay, so look, my answer was 1940, what I have to do is knock you down and still try to stay on the board, but my answer is 1940, wait, it fits well in 1910 and I'm still being me.

I just feel 1940 very strongly. Pepsi was created in New Bern, North Carolina, by Caleb Bradham. Oh, he called it Brad's drink and sold it in his drugstore in the 1890s. Hey, look at me, I ended up on the right answer, how did that happen? You're welcome, what do we have here? All Mountain Dew. We should always put it. Yes, put it on toast. Mmm-hmm. I have a special bond with the Do since we took the mountain through the filter. true, but we also have a little problem with the style because we are guys Mellie illa, that's right, that's right, I love a little soft yellow, they don't

taste

the same, I don't care what you say, how many times. you argue that they don't taste anything like each other hahaha it has more bite, but when is it from when is it from when is it first of all Mountain Dew sounds like a name for moonshine, like a creative name for mojo, yeah.

Why don't I know Mountain Dew? So it feels like you're thinking about some ban my friend, remember you're there and I don't think I was either, but it was in the '30s, yeah, I think it started in the '20s and lasted until the '30s. It feels like they're like, hey, we can start calling non-alcoholic drinks the same name as alcoholic drinks because people want them so much I can't get it 19:30 oh, that's pretty cool, too hard, very difficult, bounce, koay teow come back, damn. I like your reasoning, yes, well, you can accept it.

I mean, the board is mine. In fact, I think, by your reasoning, it was a little later. You know, it would have been too soon. It would have been like you were trying to glorify drinking. a prohibition age so you think 40, but you know, I've thought it's 40 before and I've been wrong. I'm going to try to lock you up right here. Sorry for my unentertaining defensive game, but I gotta do what I gotta do right, I can't win, there's no way I can't win, okay, tell us, although it started out as something the Hartman brothers mixed with their bourbon, people have been doing this since Mountain Dew was invented in the 1940s, oh sorry we work as a team, yes we get the right answer wrong but don't lose yet because we're not a team right?

It all comes down to this, oh, I am. Health, let's see, I had a lot of diet. Coca-Cola in my life I bet you that Diet Coke came out after regular Coke, but before new Coke, remember that yes, it was short-lived and not very good. I'm also a fan of Coke Zero, I'm going first now because we're tied and I won the last time we played this in an episode so I'm giving you a slight advantage but I'm NOT going to do any hits that you're not allowed to do on that , in the final round we can't crash into each other now with Diet Coke and When do you start thinking about this caloric intake aspect of life?

So we go from 1950 to 1970 and I firmly believe it's not 1980 because I was living in the eighties and I would remember the introduction of such a drink that we would have had as a celebration at school or something, I don't think we would have minded the die cutting, no, it's like a shuttle launch, okay, so I'm going to go. I think 50 is too early to worry about your waist. I think it's the 70s, but yeah. You agreed to that, but you can't knock me out. I just have to make sure I land at 70 and not go too far if that's really the right answer.

The food, a light touch still surpasses it by a good margin. You can't hit me. Now I don't want to hit you, here's the thing, so you say you thought it was the '70s, but it could be the '50s and I'm pretty. I think it's vintage. I think it's the 50s and I'm not going to touch you, but. I'm going to go for 50 on the 70 side you know I'm trying I don't want that brain to be free very precise can you do it first of all if it's 70 you win because you're closer if it's 50 I win because I'm closer to Stevie, While it is true that, unlike a can of regular Coca-Cola, a can of Diet Coke floats in water, this does not mean that Diet Coke is actually a witch, but rather that this soft drink Artificial sweetener-based was invented in the 1980s, but not me.

I don't remember but I won I got a breeze chuckling chug it chug it chug it chug don't give up don't give up don't breathe don't breathe keep going you have to give up keep it up while it recovers from there thanks for subscribing and clicking that Bell Mariano We're about to try out a new car with coffee here in Buenos Aires Argentina and it's time to spin that wheel of mythology you guys didn't like it at all I don't know click on that link to Watch us choose our favorite flavor of Mountain Dew kickstart and good minute mythical and to find out if it will land with mythology.
