Mello Yello was the Coca-Cola company's answer to Pepsico's extremely popular Mountain Dew. Coke saw the success of Mountain Dew and, as many businesses would, said, "Me too." I guess dropping the 'W' from both words was the company's attempt at being edgey? It hasn't worked. Pepsi's strong foothold in the "citrus soda" market has over the years proven to be a mighty big hill to climb for Coke, as Mello Yello constantly stands in the shadows of Dew. I admit I'm a Dew man myself when it comes down to it, though I should say I do love a good Mello Yello once in a while.
メローイエローはマウンテンデューの悪いいとこです。


It's a little more lemony than Mtn Dew, especially the Japanese version. Japanese Mello Yello has a stronger lemon flavor than the American counterpart, which comes as no surprise, given the outrageous popularity of lemon as a flavor of everything here.

It's not something I crave too often, but when it's around, I like a good 'Yello. 3 Stars!
