About Mtn Dew
The bright green one, and the sweetest drink in this directory. A 12 fl oz can carries 46 g of sugar, a few grams more than a Pepsi and close to a whole day's orientation value in a single can. The 54 mg of caffeine is the other outlier: more than any other regular soda here, and roughly half a mug of coffee.
Is that a lot of sugar?

None of them is a judgement about the product, and none is medical or dietary advice — what a given amount of sugar means for you depends on your whole diet and circumstances.
