Obsessed with Mnt. Dew

“I couldn’t live without mountain dew” says junior Noah Vanderkooi “its what makes me happy”.

At a young age Vanderkooi was exposed to a carbonated soft drink called mountain dew and from that point on he was obsessed.

“I get a dew every time i go out to eat, every morning, and everyday after school.”

Noahs parents acknowledge the fact that their son is addicted to mountain dew but have found it easier to be supportive of his drinking habits rather than trying limiting his consumption

“Its been his favorite drink since elementary school so we always buy it for him. If we try to get him to stop drinking it he will get upset with us” says Vanderkooi’s mother

When asked about his obsession he has said “it’s what i like” or “who cares what i drink”.

Most of Vanderkoois friends are concerned about not only his health but also his sanity.

“I’ve seen him tear apart his room looking for cash to by a dew” says good friend Cole Shuherk “i can tell when he is on a bad streak of drinking because all that sugar goes right to thighs and he gets a big gut”

For  Tommy Gaughan Mnt. almost ruined his friendship with noah “I was over at his house and had a few cold dews and when he found out i had the last one he became very hostile towards me and i haven’t been invited back since.”

Mt. dew seems harmless but when an addiction takes over your life is it still worth it? For vanderkooi it is

“I would do anything for a dew”
