To be honest, the Dew is probably the same but the green in the bottles look to be different making the liquids inside appear different.

Was one of them found by the side of a highway or near an Amazon warehouse? I quickly have learned to stop drinking those.

The Dew was probably collected from separate mountains.

One is Mountain Dew and the other is coolant. Choose wisely.

I used to be a Mountain Dew addict. I am not proud of this, but I can say with absolute certainty that the smaller/skinnier bottles (>16 oz) are made with a slightly lighter green plastic, and the bigger ones (<20 oz) are made with a slightly darker green plastic. The bigger bottles are also made of a thicker plastic, so that could also effect the color.

I guarantee you, OP, if you pour out the actual liquid of both bottles into clear glasses, they're the exact same shade of almost-but-not-quite-piss-yellow. It's the bottles themselves that are different.

They must have gotten the mountain and dew ratios off when they made the batches.

No. The left one is in a clear bottle. The right one is in a green bottle.

The first pressing of the mountain produces a lighter dew. This is “extra virgin”.

Shrink-flation. You pay the same price for less. Same idea has been applied to cereals with narrower boxes and many other products at the store.

You actually get more drunk with diet sodas because of the aspartame in the drink. Any bartender will tell you this. The aspartame is actually worse for you than the sugar (albeit still not great because of the amount in the drink) many studies done on the adverse effects of any alternative sweetener.

With all due respect, you are 100% incorrect.

The only Mountain Dew bottles above the 20 oz are the gigantic Liter sizes, and those are too chunky to fit in even the more generously-sized car cupholder. The Liter sizes are also shaped very differently (they don't have that narrower grip part), so they're pretty visually distinctive. So the taller one (on the right) can't be anything other than the 20 oz.

Whereas the 13? 16? (can't remember which) sized bottle is narrower overall, shorter, and has a noticeably smaller cap, so the one on the left is 100% not the 20 oz. And the only bottles smaller than the 13? oz are the glass bottles and the tiny 8 oz. It can't be an 8 oz because the 8 oz bottles don't have that narrow grip bit at all and tend to also have black caps, not green.

ETA: I'll be damned, I was the one who was 100% incorrect. The one on the right is a 1-Liter, and the one on the left is the 20 oz. This is why you shouldn't get addicted to Mountain Dew, kids: it rots your brain cells and isn't even good for being an accurate know-it-all regarding Mountain Dew bottles on the Internet.

Mountain is more yellow like the left one. The bottles are green tinted like Sprite Bottles were. The left has less green. If Pepsi follows coke eventually it'll be pure piss color. Though that may be why they don't do that, fuck recycling. Not going to let our consumers know they're drinking piss.

Are the expiration dates the same? Some drinks (even sealed) seem to dissipate color closer to/after the expiration date.

No argument, here. I'm very easily addicted to substances, and decided to play the odds in the short term, and keep my weight down. If I can get off of 3rd shift, and don't feel the need to shove so much caffeine down my throat, I'm going to try to switch to some sort of tea or something. TBH, I'm just happy that I'm only addicted to caffeine and nicotine, these days. Vicodin and I have gone some rounds.

Mountain Dew itself is yellowish green. The bottle on the left is mostly clear so you see the real color. The bottle on the right is dark green so it looks different.

DumpstahKat t1_j9ja97r wrote

Well god damn it, you're right.

Even disregarding the nutritional facts, I made such a big deal out of the 1 Liters not having those damn grippy bits and didn't even look closely enough at the bottle on the right to realize that it didn't have a damn grippy bit. It's smooth-waisted.

I'd thank you for pointing out my mistake but I'm too busy eating my own words and being salty about it.

The key ingredient is orange juice. Mountain Dew contains orange juice, which of course is a product that is subject to the whims of nature and cycles of growth and harvest.

I always personally found the bottles that expire in November to taste best.

Buddy of mine used to drink 20+ a day. He'd get done drinking one and then go open another. Allll day. Always had a bottle on him. Really didn't understand it. Thankfully, last I talked to him he quit. That shit has more sugar than redbull does.

Gotta check the expiration date. Mountain Dew gets a wonky color when it’s expired.
