Angry Local Resident Rants on Facebook: “Common Sense Says White Out Should Stay!”

The Mountain Dew White Out debacle has reached peak absurdity, and one local resident is having none of it.

“Are you kidding me? They bring back all these weird flavors nobody asked for—fruitcake, flamin’ hot—but when it comes to a perfect, balanced citrus blast like White Out, suddenly it’s gone forever?” fumes Gary Kowalski, 47, in a now-viral post on the “Pine Creek Community Watch” Facebook page.

“This is just common sense, people. You don’t mess with a classic. I don’t want to suck down some radioactive-looking Goji Citrus Strawberry. I want the smooth, clean taste that got me through my shift at the warehouse. It’s like they’re trying to gaslight us into thinking we don’t miss it. I can still taste it, and it’s better than your newfangled ‘Summer Freeze’ or whatever. Bring. It. Back. Or at least explain why common sense doesn’t apply in corporate boardrooms.”

The post has garnered 847 angry reacts and a storm of comments, with locals split between “preach it” and “Dude, it’s just soda.”
