I know I have been cagey when answering questions about the early history of Mountain Dew. This is because I didn't want to give too much away before I wrote my grand opus driven by my own questions about the official story as written by Dick Bridgeforth, legend based on anecdotal evidence, and completely illogical conclusions that just make no business sense. So here it is the first part of my appearent short series of Mountain Dew articles entitled "Mountain Dew: Logic VS Legend Part One" entitled "Who first commercially bottled Mountain Dew?". This edition gets into the Hartman bottle question from warehousing to flavor line theories. Is this article too much influenced by my consumption of Penn & Teller's show BS? Maybe a bit. LOL!
I also posted a short King Cola article that I've been sitting on for a week or so and forgot to post.
