You may never drink soda again after reading this
Who am I kidding? Any soda drinker out there reading this will still drink another can of soda after reading this. That's why we're disgusting, stupid creatures and probably deserve whatever we have coming to us. I've already had two cans!
Long story short, some dude claimed he found a mouse in a Mountain Dew can. Extreme! Right? This all happened some time ago, like a few years back, and Pepsi (the parent company that makes the Dew) is finally getting back to the suit.
Their fancy lawyers hired fancy science guys and guess what? The claim was a hoax. If you thought finding a mouse in a soda can was gross, hold on to your butts.
Pepsi's lawyers found experts to testify that based on the state of the remains sent to them, "the mouse would have dissolved in the soda had it been in the can from the time of its bottling until the day the plaintiff drank it." They added that the mouse would have become a "jelly-like substance."
Mice have bones. And teeth. And stuff. They defend their bottling process by revealing how corrosive their product is. Yum! This his how people get cavities, because obvious. I do wonder what it does to my insides.

You never did that tooth in a cup of coke experiment as a kid in school?
Rots the tooth in like a day until it's completely gone.
I always heard that but never knew it to be true. Kind of like the gum taking 7 years to digest (it doesn't). I guess the coke/tooth one is real!
