You know you're in Canada when...

Ok so maybe the Mountain Dew comment should be changed to "You know you are in a British Colony when the Mountain Dew has no caffeine", not sure though, to tell you the truth the only reason I put that one down is I remembered they put caffeine in Mountain Dew in the States.

You can actually get Mountain Dew with caffeine now: they sell it as an energy drink rather than as a pop.

Regular Mountain Dew has caffeine. I'm drinking some now, it's listed in the ingredients.

Sure. But not here.

a double/double isn't allways 2 cream 2 sugar. An extra large double/double is actually like 8 cream 8 sugar. Or something like that.

I personally don't like 'double-doubles'. Regular, that's what I order.
"Large regular please. Keep the change, eh?"

You know you're Canadian when you were weaned with O.V.

I suggest that you read the label on a can of Mountain Dew or Energy, whatever they're calling it now. It say's that it is not recommended for children and that adults should limit themselves to no more than two a day. I'd say that there is caffeine in there and more.

In the US it's the most caffeinated soda on the market, save something like Jolt (tm) cola which touts itself as having "all the sugar and twice the caffeine". Jolt indeed. I became a big fan of Diet Mountain Dew and started having headaches - caffeine was the reason.
