Eww can you imagine what your stomach lining must look like?  Isn't any wonder so many people have ulcers and acid reflux.

The ingredient used to make coke and pepsi brown are known carcinogens.

Seriously ... A rat in his Mountain Dew ... For a rat to be in his soda bottle it would have to be a large bottle which
is plastic and you can see through ... A rat is not going to fit in a can of soda.

I think the guy was just looking for some kind of pay off or something for free -- just my opinion

I've been hearing similar stories for many years, and I have used cola to clear corrosion from my car battery!

Are you people serious?

Before you think the "acidity" of coke and other sodas are harmful to your system take a look at this.

The fact is, just because something can dissolve a dead rat doesn't make it harmful. Given more time, water would do the same thing, as well as air. Everything naturally decompose unless treated with specific chemicals (of which ARE harmful to us.)

Of course the sugar and high calories in soda can be harmful to us in the long run, but this can apply to many things other than soda. Most people are at least somewhat informed that a high-sugar diet can lead to many health problems and many don't mind and will continue with their diet and thats fine with me. The companies who make soda have made it perfectly clear on their packaging of the content of their drinks (as required by the FDA, but sugar in non-diet soda isn't some big secret.). If people want to drink soda, then let them. If soda companies want to fulfill this demand, then let them. No skin off my bones.

I am actually allergic to water. I know how weird that is but I am.

I have tried to minimized are soda in take, but Mountain Dew has never been the favorite in my house, my girls will go more for Fanta or Coke, even though like I said we are rarely drinking sodas now.

I'm going to ask the obvious question here: how exactly did a RAT fit inside a bottle or can of Mountain Dew?  I don't buy it.  This sounds like one of those stories people make up to see how gullible you are.

Congrats, you're gullible!
