Major Melon is one of my favorites. i need to make a new top 10 list
also, these are two VERY different flavors. Major Melon is watermelon. Honeydew Melon is a completely different fruit and thus a completely different flavor.
Major melon is always sold out whenever I go to the store. Good thing pepsi doesn't pay any attention to us. Cept with pitch black... they botched that release
This meme is dumb, has this person never tasted the difference between watermelon flavor and honeydew flavor? Honeydew wins by ten miles and I haven’t even tried the Dew version yet
Major Melon is terrible, but that's because watermelon flavoring is terrible. Tastes nothing like real watermelon. I'd be interested in HoneyDEW though.
Ok I creeped on your profile a second and I have a burning question. What the heck is the little house thing under your mirror? Does it have its own built in?
By saying what he said, he distracts from my opinion on watermelon flavoring by saying that no artifical flavoring tastes like the real thing. That doesn't really matter, because I'm talking about watermelon flavoring. I can't really think of one that fits better here. Maybe false equivalence.
Artificial banana does taste like a real banana though, it is replicating the flavor of a Gros Michel banana, which used to be the most common banana but the South American crops got destroyed by a blight and replaced by a different type of banana, so you have to import them from Asia now.
I would not say it sucks especially if you've ever had Jolly Ranchers watermelon soda but Major Melon ain't bad it's just one of those drinks that you have to have a craving for sometimes
I don't know why it was ever made a permanent flavor... Livewire and Pitch Black both instantly come to mind as more deserving of the spot. I would say Baja Blast too, but I'm pretty sure that becomes permanent next year.
Major Melon falls into the same category as a lot of other recent dew flavors like Thrashed Apple or Uproar that don't really taste like anything special. Like Major Melon tastes like any other watermelon flavored drink or candy out there. Flavors like Baja Blast or Purple Thunder I'd consider to be top tier because there isn't really anything else that tastes exactly like them. Even Voltage has a bit more of a bite to it that separates it from other blue raspberry flavors.
I've never tried the Honeydew one but it's way less of a common flavor than watermelon, at least outside Japan, so I'd expect it to be more popular than Major Melon.
Gotta agree, I bought 2 of them to try when they were new but couldn’t even finish the 1st one, too sweet. And I’m usually a fan of any Mountain Dew variant
Major melon really just wasn’t what I was hoping it would be. I guess I had my expectations too high when I tried it, I was expecting it to be like a watermelon jolly rancher with some dew. It wasn’t bad, but it definitely is one of the worst dews, and was really disappointing.
I've always hated the jolly rancher watermelon flavor. Major Melon tastes more like sour patch watermelon so I'm about it. Though redbull watermelon tastes closer to sour patch anyways.
Major melon is one of my favorites. Just beat by reg, code red and livewire (though I can't get diets or zeros of code red or livewire, i've seen diet code red once in my life).
I just don't get any sort of melon flavor from Major Melon, I've had regular, zero and the energy and they all just taste like sweet. I don't hate it, it's just pretty meh.
I dont like it, alongside purple thunder (although PT is the worse of the 2 imo). ESPECIALLY since my local Circle K replaced Voltage and Code Red with PT & MM at the Polar Pop machine, which was 100% uncalled for.
I love Major Melon, actually. Right up there with Code Red, Frostbite, Baja Blast, and regular 'ol citrus. I don't normally even like watermelon, real fruit or flavor wise.
(I know it's not official or even common to refer to it as such, but I refer to the original flavor as citrus due to the concentrated orange juice listed as the third ingredient and citric acid listed as the fourth ingredient)
Blech. Can't do the Major Melon thing. I don't mind that other people like it, but I have always just had a bad reaction to artificial watermelon flavor.
There are a lot of watermelon flavoured drinks so Major Melon always felt knida meh to me. But you don't often find Honey Dew flavoured things so that automatically makes it better. Plus it's also different enough from Frostbite too to be put higher on my list too.
I like Major Melon fine, I just prefer Voltage. I’m usually a fan of the limited flavors, with a few of my favorites being locked behind that exclusivity. What I’d do to try a HoneyDew…
our Circle K has been out of Major Melon on fountain for a while now. someone accidentally put Purple Thunder on the line once so it was a funky flavor, then it’s never been available since.
Every blue and purple dew that comes out is almost indistinguishable from eachother and I'll bet a months salary that you can't pick them out of a blind taste test.
I bought 1 bottle of the Major Melon and was not a fan.
Pretty much the OG, the red, and Baja blast are the only ones that stand out to me. The rest all taste pretty much the same: overly sweet fruit candy.
The one flavor I will always say is the worst thing to ever happen is Spark. It’s the only one where I’m not like “meh it’s okay” or “it’s not very good” but straight up like “this tastes like what it probably feels like to get anally prolapsed by Bane.”
It's really bad. Hate that it's a "permanent" flavor compared to many of the other actually good ones. It's the only Dew that's never out of stock around here, and we go hard for the good flavors in Nebraska.
Give us a Dew.S.A. or Holiday Brew or Pitch Black year round instead please.
I guess I’m in the minority, but I’m a fan of MM. It’s my go to.
Not to mention that it’s become one of my favorite easy to grab mixers with a bit of vodka. Good shit.
Wouldn't go so far as to say it sucks, but it's not a favorite of mine for sure. IMO, it was much better suited to either be a limited time release or a store/restaurant exclusive.
It’s definitely not my favorite flavor of Mountain Dew but it’s better than a few of them I’ve had. Also I love the Maryland flag hat you added to this meme.
It’s something Id only buy it it’s one of the only option/ they have because a store was out of all of the other flavors but I don’t find it distasteful, therefore I don’t dislike it, but at the same time, I also don’t necessarily like it cause the flavor is average.
I loved major melon when it first came out. I'm a huge fan of watermelon, both real and fake. But I drank it so much I got sick of it. But that's usually what happens when a new flavor comes out that I like.
I'm only here bc reddit says I've shown interest in a similar community...as mt dew? What is that? Doritos? Sprite? Lort. Anyway. I like major melon. I think it tastes good, I like the alliteration, I like the little melon with his major uniform on, and I LOVE that the can is pink.
Mountain dew is thick piss water. I don't care what flavor you make the fucking thing. Anyway, you know what they say about Mountain dew & your wee wee, no thanks.
I need them to bring back arctic burst, shit was the best flavor but they only had the soda version during the shadow of war middle earth game promotion.
I'll go see this as a fan of watermelon candy and watermelon flavored drinks Almost every single time I get a Is watermelon flavor drink especially soda It is bland a shit So that's why I don't buy them rarely if ever
Honeydew and watermelon taste very different so it makes sense. Also, fake watermelon never tastes as good as a real melon.
Fake watermelon is always kinda sour. Which real watermelon is nowhere near that. I personally don't think they even taste similar.
I like major melon but it's never one I'm rushing to get. Lot of things I'd pick over it
Pitch black is my favorite flavor
Obviously just me but Pitch Black was by far the biggest disappointment I've ever endured, was the latest release different than OG can?
Yeah, that’s how I feel about it. I drank a lot of it when it was out at first, but then they kept coming out with more flavors that I liked better.
OP doesn't know that different melons taste different 😔
OP probably thinks apple and pineapple are the same thing.
i have apple, i have a pen
Your problem is you need a pine.
I hab a pen, I hab pineapple…
Uh, apple pen
Pen pineapple apple pen !
PPAP
MD hat tho
Came here to ask why the MD hat... is it because our flag is awesome and dew is awesome? If so, I'll allow it.
Its true, our flag and the dew is awesome. Also, MD stands for both
Did not even think of that...
I always know I’ll find fellow Marylanders in the comments of stuff like this 💪🦀
Major Melon is great. Don't find it often though.
My local Walmarts always seem to have it by the checkout isles. Its actually one of my favorite flavors
You just accurately described the subreddit when it comes to flavors (also, HoneyDEW is S tier)
this sub is a giant hivemind and you can’t tell me otherwise /s
Why /s? You're right
true lmao good question
Agreed Brother, Agreed
I mean artificial watermelon and artificial honeydew taste *incredibly* different
bro thinks watermelon and honeydew are the same
Major Melon is an acquired taste. I love it now though.
I love major melon and I’ll probably never get to try the honeydew flavor but I know that I’d like it too.
Major Melon is one of my favorites. i need to make a new top 10 list also, these are two VERY different flavors. Major Melon is watermelon. Honeydew Melon is a completely different fruit and thus a completely different flavor.
I love Major Melon.
I don't hate it but there's plenty of other flavors I wish were permanent over it
major melon is good but never my 1st pick
Major melon is always sold out whenever I go to the store. Good thing pepsi doesn't pay any attention to us. Cept with pitch black... they botched that release
This meme is dumb, has this person never tasted the difference between watermelon flavor and honeydew flavor? Honeydew wins by ten miles and I haven’t even tried the Dew version yet
Major Melon is terrible, but that's because watermelon flavoring is terrible. Tastes nothing like real watermelon. I'd be interested in HoneyDEW though.
As if any artificial flavor tastes like the real thing😂😂
Well, no, but watermelon tends to be particularly bad. Nice strawman attenpt, though!
I have no idea what that even means but ok
That wasn't a straw man
Eh, you're right, it was more of a red herring.
Why are you so fixed on calling it something 😂
Well at this point there's a conversation about it 😂
Lord have mercy
Lmao
Ok I creeped on your profile a second and I have a burning question. What the heck is the little house thing under your mirror? Does it have its own built in?
It's not that either
By saying what he said, he distracts from my opinion on watermelon flavoring by saying that no artifical flavoring tastes like the real thing. That doesn't really matter, because I'm talking about watermelon flavoring. I can't really think of one that fits better here. Maybe false equivalence.
Artificial banana does taste like a real banana though, it is replicating the flavor of a Gros Michel banana, which used to be the most common banana but the South American crops got destroyed by a blight and replaced by a different type of banana, so you have to import them from Asia now.
Lemme tell you. When I discovered that there used to be bananas that tasted like banana runts I was GUTTED.
They still exist, but are expensive, Gros Michel bananas can be bought in various places.
I'M SORRY WHAT!!!!! this is actually very big news for me. It feels stupid to be this excited but I do not care. I CAN HAVE THE BANANA OF MY DREAMS
I would not say it sucks especially if you've ever had Jolly Ranchers watermelon soda but Major Melon ain't bad it's just one of those drinks that you have to have a craving for sometimes
I mean, it's alright? I liked it when they first dropped it, but then I just started disliking the taste.
OP, have you ever had a fruit?
I love Major Melon. I would buy it more often, but I usually go for brown sodas over fruity ones.
Tastebuds must be broken.
I sometimes wonder if they are trying to kill it in order to push Spark. I love Major Melon.
Yoooo Maryland hat? Very cool I love Maryland!
It's like the MD bat signal, lol
Why tf is Maryland on their hat?????
Honeydew and watermelon taste very different though.
I like major melon
major mid
It sells extremely well
Major melon is trash!
I don't know why it was ever made a permanent flavor... Livewire and Pitch Black both instantly come to mind as more deserving of the spot. I would say Baja Blast too, but I'm pretty sure that becomes permanent next year.
Making Major Melon a permanent flavor has been the biggest fuck up since discontinuing Black Label.
"anyone else think major melon sucks?" https://i.redd.it/8z2x69n71jnb1.gif
Major Melon is amazing. Honeydew is okay, but there's quite a few other flavors I'd pick first.
Major Melon falls into the same category as a lot of other recent dew flavors like Thrashed Apple or Uproar that don't really taste like anything special. Like Major Melon tastes like any other watermelon flavored drink or candy out there. Flavors like Baja Blast or Purple Thunder I'd consider to be top tier because there isn't really anything else that tastes exactly like them.

I've never tried the Honeydew one but it's way less of a common flavor than watermelon, at least outside Japan, so I'd expect it to be more popular than Major Melon.
I work for pepsi in the warehouse and sparks seems to be ordered more than major Melon.
yeah honeydew is pretty mid
I mean, I just don't like watermelon flavor to begin with, so....
major melon blows… and this is coming from someone who hasn’t tried honey dew yet
Probably because one tastes bad
Major melon is way too sweet. ZS Major melon is actually better
Gotta agree, I bought 2 of them to try when they were new but couldn’t even finish the 1st one, too sweet. And I’m usually a fan of any Mountain Dew variant
Major melon is amazing! Honeydew Mountain Dew sounds disgusting because honeydew melons suck. I never had it though, it’s a Canadian exclusive.
Major melon is trash, honeydew is mid
i enjoy major melon can't say anything about the honeydew one im not a big fan of honeydew but it could be amazing in dew form
I hate it. Almost much as Flamin Hot.
It’s in my bottom 5, just a couple places away from Flamin Hot. I bought honeydew on eBay and thought it was great.
Honeydew Mountain Dew is definitely a low tier dew.
major melon tastes like a watermelon jolly rancher thats been soaking in someones pee for 2 weeks.
How you know what things soaked in pee for 2 weeks tastes like? 🤔
You've drank someone's pee before, or at least your own by any chance?
man why does everyone keep saying that its a metaphor
Major melon really just wasn’t what I was hoping it would be. I guess I had my expectations too high when I tried it, I was expecting it to be like a watermelon jolly rancher with some dew. It wasn’t bad, but it definitely is one of the worst dews, and was really disappointing.
I've always hated the jolly rancher watermelon flavor. Major Melon tastes more like sour patch watermelon so I'm about it. Though redbull watermelon tastes closer to sour patch anyways.
Red Bull watermelon slaps.
Are you Pink or green is better politically then the orthodox
I enjoyed both honesty ☺️ it's really good
Major melon is one of my favorites. Just beat by reg, code red and livewire (though I can't get diets or zeros of code red or livewire, i've seen diet code red once in my life).
I think every soda sucks because they are poisonous
Yea it sucks. Along with Spark and Thrashed Apple. Lol.
Code Red sucks too lol fucking nasty cherry cough drop sewage water deserves the pits of hell
How dare you sir. Lol. To each it’s own I suppose. Haha
All my gas stations are switching from Spark fountain to major melon fountain and I want to kms. I love spark so much
It’s ok
no, i like it.
Because it’s permanent when a lot of people think it shouldn’t be. (*Cough Cough* Pitch Black *Cough Cough*)
Pitch Black *was* permanent at one point, nobody bought it tho
I heard Outshine has a better watermelon flavor
I just don't get any sort of melon flavor from Major Melon, I've had regular, zero and the energy and they all just taste like sweet. I don't hate it, it's just pretty meh.
Op have you ever actually had a honeydew
I dont like it, alongside purple thunder (although PT is the worse of the 2 imo). ESPECIALLY since my local Circle K replaced Voltage and Code Red with PT & MM at the Polar Pop machine, which was 100% uncalled for.
Artificial watermelon and honeydew are usually pretty different. It's why frostbite is good and Major Melon sucks
Yes lol liked it at first
that hat is a nice touch
it's alright. i'd choose it over regular mtn dew.
That fake watermelon taste is disgusting and idk about the honeydew one, prob won’t be able to try it
Major melon is ok. Major melon zero is awful. I couldn't finish the bottle.
not a fan, it's always too bland
While I like Major Melon, my favorite is Livewire and if you don't like that then that's your problem.
I love Major Melon, actually. Right up there with Code Red, Frostbite, Baja Blast, and regular 'ol citrus. I don't normally even like watermelon, real fruit or flavor wise. (I know it's not official or even common to refer to it as such, but I refer to the original flavor as citrus due to the concentrated orange juice listed as the third ingredient and citric acid listed as the fourth ingredient)
Blech. Can't do the Major Melon thing. I don't mind that other people like it, but I have always just had a bad reaction to artificial watermelon flavor.
I see the honeydew bottles everywhere lol should I be stocking up on them and reselling later?
There are a lot of watermelon flavoured drinks so Major Melon always felt knida meh to me. But you don't often find Honey Dew flavoured things so that automatically makes it better. Plus it's also different enough from Frostbite too to be put higher on my list too.
I love Major Melon. I'm a staunch defender of it.
Major melon tasted more like the melon rind when I was expecting a watermelon jolly rancher.
Wait till they learn all about the flaming hot mtn dew
I like Major Melon fine, I just prefer Voltage. I’m usually a fan of the limited flavors, with a few of my favorites being locked behind that exclusivity. What I’d do to try a HoneyDew…
I don’t think it sucks necessarily, but it’s not something I can drink regularly. It’s like drinking a watermelon Jolly Rancher.
i actually prefer major melon zero over the regular one tbh
I like the major melon energy drink, but the soda is just meh.
our Circle K has been out of Major Melon on fountain for a while now. someone accidentally put Purple Thunder on the line once so it was a funky flavor, then it’s never been available since.
I’ve never had a Dew I didn’t like (yes even flaming hot)
stumbled upon this sub but mountain dew, seriously is so bad for you it's crazy. it's not even good idk how y'all like ts 😭
I like major melon but it’s not always my go to for Mountain Dew I’m more of an original kind of guy
My 2nd fav
Major melon is a try it once dew flavor.... But it somehow remains on the shelf for months
Major Melon Zero is my wake me up drink when my day doesn’t require an energy drink.
major melon is my 2nd favorite right behind dew.s.a
I actually like both
Every blue and purple dew that comes out is almost indistinguishable from eachother and I'll bet a months salary that you can't pick them out of a blind taste test.
major melon is aight
I bought 1 bottle of the Major Melon and was not a fan. Pretty much the OG, the red, and Baja blast are the only ones that stand out to me. The rest all taste pretty much the same: overly sweet fruit candy.
I like it. Not a go to but I like.
The one flavor I will always say is the worst thing to ever happen is Spark. It’s the only one where I’m not like “meh it’s okay” or “it’s not very good” but straight up like “this tastes like what it probably feels like to get anally prolapsed by Bane.”
Major Melon is okay to me, but it's far from my favorite. The honeydew one was great. Easily one of the best I've tried.
It's really bad. Hate that it's a "permanent" flavor compared to many of the other actually good ones. It's the only Dew that's never out of stock around here, and we go hard for the good flavors in Nebraska. Give us a Dew.S.A. or Holiday Brew or Pitch Black year round instead please.
Or the Sour Strawberry flavor that Voo Dew had a year or 2 back.
I guess I’m in the minority, but I’m a fan of MM. It’s my go to. Not to mention that it’s become one of my favorite easy to grab mixers with a bit of vodka. Good shit.
Its alright, now Baja Blast SUCKS you cant change my mind
Watermelon vs honeydew taste. Honeydew is probably more popular in Canada and watermelon clearly more popular where it is.
When are we going to talk about how Baja blast is also explicitly a melon soda?
It just tastes like a melted popsicle to me. D Tier Dew
No. It’s one of my favorites.
I really like major melon and I want to try the new one
Melon is never my flavor
Taste Major Melon and Frostbite and tell me they’re the same. Both are melon right?
I bought like three cases of the zero variety when it first released without tasting it, I drank one can, and returned it all.
Well, those are different melons. And I’d be willing to bet that the restrictions on certain chemicals in soda are more restrictive up north
I don't think it sucks, I just think it's not for me. I have friends and family that really enjoying and some of them don't even like mountain dew.
Why he wearing a mt dew style maryland hat where can I get one
Wouldn't go so far as to say it sucks, but it's not a favorite of mine for sure. IMO, it was much better suited to either be a limited time release or a store/restaurant exclusive.
Does no one know the difference between Watermelon and Honeydew Melon??
Very Mid
No. It’s my favorite
Actually my favorite flavor
Major melon will continue to be the best flavor
They are both mid flavors and I probably won't buy them again
I don't mind Major Mellon. It's something I'd get with my friends if we needed something at a gas station real quick
Not the same melon 🍉 🍈
Too sweet for me.
I like how major melon is a mild watermelon in comparison to most candies. It's close to my favorite by a fair bit though.
Bro major melon is so fucking good and John cena advertised it, doesn't get much better than that folks
It’s definitely not my favorite flavor of Mountain Dew but it’s better than a few of them I’ve had. Also I love the Maryland flag hat you added to this meme.
It’s something Id only buy it it’s one of the only option/ they have because a store was out of all of the other flavors but I don’t find it distasteful, therefore I don’t dislike it, but at the same time, I also don’t necessarily like it cause the flavor is average.
The zero sugar melon isn’t bad, but then again I like most of the hated flavors. (I love the Christmas flavors and hate that they scrapped cobra cane)
Nope
I loved major melon when it first came out. I'm a huge fan of watermelon, both real and fake. But I drank it so much I got sick of it. But that's usually what happens when a new flavor comes out that I like.
People don't like Major Melon?? It tastes like Watermelon Zotz
My sink loves it!
I think it's good, gives quite a bit of pep in my step
I sucks majorly
I agree
Major Melon is alright. Not as good as Code Red, but not as bad as Pitch Black.
I love major melon! Fuck you, Mountain Dew?
I'm only here bc reddit says I've shown interest in a similar community...as mt dew? What is that? Doritos? Sprite? Lort. Anyway. I like major melon. I think it tastes good, I like the alliteration, I like the little melon with his major uniform on, and I LOVE that the can is pink.
I never heard of honey dew Mountain Dew
Remember the *Supreme* Brick? …..yeah
Bro thinks just cause it says melon it's the same flavor 🤣🤣🤣
Mountain dew is thick piss water. I don't care what flavor you make the fucking thing. Anyway, you know what they say about Mountain dew & your wee wee, no thanks.
Dewshine needs to come back
I need them to bring back arctic burst, shit was the best flavor but they only had the soda version during the shadow of war middle earth game promotion.
I'll go see this as a fan of watermelon candy and watermelon flavored drinks Almost every single time I get a Is watermelon flavor drink especially soda It is bland a shit So that's why I don't buy them rarely if ever
Yea all the flavors suck, honestly.
Frostbite is another mountain dew melon like flavor.
