Well, internet, you did it: Coca-Cola is actually bringing back 90's citrus soda Surge.

For those who don't remember, Surge was the Coca-Cola corporation's relatively short-lived answer to Mountain Dew. It was labeled "the fully-loaded* citrus soda." Some sources append "with carbos" to that description, but I haven't ever actually seen that on a can, so I can't really ask what the ? a "carbo" is while feeling genuine. It was basically the 1990's in carbonated sugargasm form, and it wasdiscontinued in 2003. Before you ask: yes, back in 1999, I basically drank enough of this stuff daily to fell an elk.

Now, thanks in large part to a concerted Facebook campaign called "The SURGE Movement," Coca-Cola is bringing back Surge through a limited online release. They're selling it through Amazon.com, where $14 will get you 12 16-ounce cans — a tidy profit for Coca-Cola, since there's a guaranteed ready-made market for these things. They haven't announced specifically when it will become available, but you can bet it won't be long.

Pat yourselves on the back, internet. You won this round. Now if only you could figure out a way to bring back Firefly for the long-term.

* I know what you're about to ask, and the answer is "fully-loaded with diabetes."

? that ? , it looks like it's got some Nickelodeon slime up in that ? .

They need to bring these back



But by someone other than the KKK

"In April 1991, rumors began circulating in Black neighborhoods that the beverage was laced with a secret ingredient that would sterilize black men.[2] The beverage quickly earned the nickname "Tropical Fanticide." The rumors claimed that the Ku Klux ? was actually bottling the product and using the low price to attract poor citizens.[3] Similar unfounded rumors about ? involvement periodically have plagued the Church's Fried Chicken chain and Snapple soft drinks.[4]

Later that year the rumor spread rapidly and provoked violence in many city neighborhoods. Attacks occurred on delivery trucks and storekeepers who stocked Tropical Fantasy. Due to these rumors and rising suspicions, sales of the beverage plummeted by 70%.

Investigations found the claims to be as preposterous.[5] Sales recovered only after an extensive public relations campaign that included then-New York City Mayor David N. Dinkins, who is Black, drinking a bottle of the soda for television news cameras.[6]

By mid June 1991 the attacks had stopped and the sales had rebounded, but the dark rumors about Tropical Fantasy were not forgotten. Even today, the rumors are still circulating. Many young teenagers refer to the beverages as "Nutties", mainly due to the rumor that it kills sperm. This is not however limited to the Tropical Fantasy beverage. Other beverages such as "City Club", "Top Pop", and "C&C", are ridiculed in exactly the same way."
