Wild rumors like the ones quoted above about a popular
brand of lemon-lime soda have been
circulating for several years now!. The
first clue to its questionable veracity
is the variety of reported effects:
Drinking Mountain Dew will shrink
your testicles!. Or decrease your
sperm count!. Or cause your penis to
grow smaller!. Well, whatever occurs,
it only happens to guys, and it hits
them below the belt, right!? Sounds a
lot like the early 1990s legend that
claimed Tropical Fantasy brand softdrinks contained a "secret ingredient"
to cause sterility in black male
drinkers, doesn't it!?
These rumors are primarily spread about PepsiCo's Mountain Dew soft
drink, although it has also been told about Mello Yello (a Coca-Cola
product which, though still available, has been supplanted by Surge)!.
The key factor is the presence of a dye called Yellow No!. 5 in these
drinks (presumably in large quantities), a food coloring that allegedly
has nasty effects on one's manhood!.
Yellow No!. 5, also known as tartrazine, is an FD&C (i!.e!., approved for
use in food, drugs, and cosmetics) coloring dye commonly used to give
various foods (such as beverages, candy, and ice cream) a bright
lemon yellow color!. It has long been deemed safe by the Food and
Drug Administration!. It has also been in use since 1916, so if it were
shrinking penises and testicles, we'd probably have heard something
more than rumors about it by now!. (The FDA's established acceptable
daily intake [ADI] for tartrazine is 5!.0 milligrams per kilogram of body
weight per day, which is about !.01 ounces for a 132-pound person!.)
Many other common food products contain Yellow No!. 5 as well, so
more than just Mountain Dew drinkers would notice the effect if it
were real!. (Soft drinks don't contain a significantly larger amount of
Yellow No!. 5 than other food products!.)
The FDA has required since 1979 that food and drugs containing
Yellow No!. 5 be labeled to indicate its presence (and the U!.S!.
Department of Agriculture requires similar labeling for meat and
poultry), but that requirement came about because tartrazine was
found to be associated with a variety of allergic type reactions in
sensitive people, not because it wreaked havoc with the male
reproductive system!.
If you're male and drink a lot of Mountain Dew, you will notice one
related but perfectly harmless side effect: quite a bit of yellow liquid
will flow out of your penis!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The fact is that anything with yellow 5 kills sperm count!. Mountain dew has a lot of yellow # 5 but there are many other foods and beverages that do as well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Not unless you drink about 2 two quart bottles per day, which I dont think anyone would be able to!. so it is true, but would be very hard to do!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Don't care!. I'm a girl and I think Mt!. Dew is delicious!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Only if drank on days ending in the letter "Y"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
yes, and your penis will fall off soon after!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
