Mountain Dew asks the internet to name its new flavor, the internet responds hilariously
Mountain Dew recently fired up a promotion called “Dub the Dew”, in which it asked the internet what it should name its new green apple flavored soda. Well, the internet responded, voting en masse with names like “Diabeetus”, “Gushin Grannie”, “Fapple” and “Hitler Did Nothing Wrong”.
The prank supposedly started on 4chan, but then it quickly spread to Reddit, where more votes were tallied until the winner was “Diabeetus”.
Before the site was taken down, it was hacked. A Tumblr user described what happened after he clicked on the link on Reddit:
After clicking the link the user was directed to the mountain dew website and a pop up box that said “le 9gga are leggion” appeared… I kind of panicked, thinking it was a website with a virus or something. However, after clicking “ok” an embedded Youtube video of Rick Astley singing “Never Gonna Give You Up” starts playing. There was also a marquee at the top of the page that says “Mtn Dew salutes the Israeli Mossad for demolishing 3 towers on 9/11!”
