God-Sent Posted September 15, 2014 Coke dials up the 1990s nostalgiaCoca-Cola’s 1990s SURGE citrus drink is back by popular demand. The Mountain-Dew inspired soda, which debuted in 1996 but was discontinued in the early 2000s, has been the subject of a nostalgia-fueled online campaign to lobby the company to bring back the drink. http://time.com/3378044/coca-cola-surge/ I wouldn't mind trying it again. I remember it, but not the flavor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buoyancy Posted September 15, 2014 So, was surge the precursor to Mello Yello or... what? I never drank it. *checks D.O.B* Yes, I was a 90's kid... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
God-Sent Posted September 16, 2014 So, was surge the precursor to Mello Yello or... what? I never drank it. Mello Yello came out first in '79 to compete with Mountain Dew which itself dates back to the 50's. Surge didn't come out until 1996-1997 though it was released for the same reason as Mello Yello which was to compete with Mountain Dew. Yes, I was a 90's kid... Proove it! jk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T.O.W.R. Posted September 16, 2014 I kinda remember Surge. I was 6-ish when it was discontinued and I don't remember ever having it, but I remember it. As for the T.V. shows, I was born a little too late for that. I'm glad it's coming back. Nostalgia is almost always a good thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel this is a bit too early 2000's that it is 90's. I remember all of these. However, my parents raised me about 3 years behind the real world, and they say that the 90's ended in 2004 sooo...
