"Every great movie deserves a sequel. Consumers loved Mountain Dew Pitch Black and they wanted us to bring it back, but with something new," said Katie Lacey, vice president of marketing, carbonated soft drinks, for the Purchase, NY-based Pepsi-Cola North America. "Sour flavors are big right now with teens and young adults, so we added a sour bite to Mountain Dew Pitch Black II."

Whoa, how did I do that? lol

Anyway.. I have a 2 liter of it now. It's okay, but I think you're right... I like the original better... It's not even really comparable to the first, IMO....

I like the sour bite though..

lol.. nope.. I liked it a lot.

I'm not a fan of Code Red, though.. Infact, I think I've gotten it twice since it came out.

And yeah, I agree.. that's my primary complaint too, not enough grape flavor.. But I like the sour bite.

It's just .. different. I don't find it unpleasant though.

mt dew itself and all of its variants have always had an unpleasant flavor to me. i dont drink soda anymore, and i would even venture out to say that the thought of drinking a mt dew is all i need to curb my withdrawal attacks.
