- Don’t do the Dew: An Illinois man is presently suing the Pepsi Company, claiming that as he was enjoying (as much as one is able) some Mountain Dew soda, he spat out a mouthful to reveal a dead mouse. In an effort to acquit themselves of this charge, Pepsi seems to be conceding a reality that strikes us, frankly, as a great deal grosser and more concerning than a mouse happening to get shuffled into the bottling process: they’re saying the mouse would have dissolved in the time it took for the soda to go from bottling to consumption. More specifically, they’re claiming it would have been reduced to a “jelly-like substance.” There are no words. (Photo courtesy of Repoort) source
