[edit] Mountain Breeze

Mountain Breeze^[1] is the Safeway SELECT generic answer to Mountain Dew. The taste of the soda is much the same as Mountain Dew, with a few noticeable differences. Mountain Dew is a bit tangier than its Safeway SELECT counterpart, which focuses more on sweetness. One 12 oz. can of Mountain Breeze contains 190 calories, 65mg of sodium, 48g total Carbohydrate, 48g of sugar, and the following ingredients: Carbonated Water, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Orange Juice Concentrate, Sodium Citrate, Caffeine, Natural Flavors, Artificial Flavors, and Yellow 5. The design of a Mountain Breeze soda can also bears a great resemblance to an older Mountain Dew can, more so than many of the Mountain Dew-type sodas out there.

[edit] Mountain Lightning

Mountain Lightning is a Wal-Mart soft drink brand that resembles Mountain Dew. Another brand made by Wal-Mart is Dr. Thunder, which resembles Dr Pepper. Wal-Mart's drink goes under the brand Sam's Choice. On the can there is a picture of two mountains and lightning surrounding it and the color scheme exactly resembles that of Mountain Dew's. It's a less expensive alternative to Mountain Dew with less caffeine.^{[citation needed]}
