Unfortunately Mountain Dew here in Canada doesn't have any caffeine.

There was a *HUGE* uproar, mostly from mothers of small children, when
it was revealed that there was some test marketing going on with the
intent of introducing caffeine to a "clear" beverage (I'm fairly sure it
was Moutain Dew, but I'm not 100% certain).  What horrors!  How was a
person to tell if their kids were drinking caffiene or not?!?!?!  You
don't expect them to read the label now do you?  :-)

(Of course most kids really shouldn't have much caffeine, even pro-rated
for their body mass....  Some shouldn't have any at all -- it's only
funny to a point and then someone's likely to get hurt!)
