    I want the return of soda with Real Sugar. Not the caustic High Fructose Corn Syrup. Also, lets get back to the glass bottles. Taste so much better.

      The only place I know to get favorite sodas made with real sugar and in glass bottles are in Mexican grocery stores. Mexico still uses cane sugar and glass!
      I'd give quite a lot to have a real Mountain Dew in a glass bottle with the hillbilly logo on it!
