Mountain Dew is a citrus soft drink with no animal ingredients. Same evaluation pattern as other PepsiCo sodas.
Carbonated water, high-fructose corn syrup or sugar, concentrated orange juice (in many formulas), citric acid, caffeine, sodium benzoate, EDTA, flavours and Yellow 5 (tartrazine) in classic Dew.
No gelatin, dairy or meat derivatives.
Caffeine is permissible; dose is a health choice. Yellow 5 is a synthetic dye, not carmine. Some flavoured Dew lines (Code Red, pink editions) use different colour systems — check red variants for E120 if you avoid insect colours.
US Mountain Dew is not identical to overseas variants (some markets sell lower-caffeine or different juice content). Certification appears where bottling partners require it.
Sweetener swaps (aspartame, sucralose, acesulfame K) do not introduce animal ingredients. The origin ruling stays the same.
Classic Mountain Dew is plant/mineral/synthetic. Novelty flavours deserve their own ten-second label glance.
