I Have Confirmed That I Have No Reason To Drink Mello Yello Anymore

Back when I was in high school and just after, I used to drink Mello Yello once in a while because it was only 49 cents and other sodas/pops were something like $1 or $1.29 for the same size. Recently I went back for my high school reunion and stopped by the gas station where I used to get Mello Yello a lot and I discovered it was now the same price as everything else. I still got one for the nostalgia value, but I discovered something. I have no more reason to drink Mello Yello.

Drinking that Mello Yello recently, I confirmed that I only drank it because it was cheaper than everything else in the drink case. At the same price, I prefer Mountain Dew. Nostalgia value isn’t enough.

Sorry, Mello Yello. Unless you’re cheaper than other drinks and I’m trying to save cash, it looks like we won’t meet again. You just don’t seem worth full price to me.
