When I was at Defcon, one of my favourite conversations was....

"So, you're from Canada, right? What's the deal with your Mountain Dew not having caffeine?"


is that true?
Yes, I was indeed asked that.

But seriously, yes. The only caffeinated softdrinks here are the colas. We don't have caffeine in our mountain dew, or, to my knowledge, root beer, either.

(Energy drinks are a different story, naturally)

I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

As far as I noticed most reputable root beer's don't have caffeine at all :(

I've heard that Barq's has caffeine. It may or may not be true. I'm actually not sure if it has caffeine here or not, I've never checked.

I only drink clear soft-drinks, or rather, I prefer clear soft-drinks, but on occasion green/orange drinks are fine.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

In Germany, soft-drinks are beer. Dead serious.

Many popular green softdrinks are actually clear, but in a green bottle.

The more you know!

Also, I don't drink any softdrinks (with the occasional exception for an all natural non-mainstream one, but that's rare -- it's still too much sugar for me).

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.
