Man... I tried to improve this mountain dew question but the answers are such junk, I wonder if I should have flagged it instead

Even the accepted answer seems like pure speculation. How is somebody supposed to trust that it's credible? Especially when it ignores the explicit "no added sugar" spec in the question (which itself kind of conflicts with the mimicry goal)

Also this "rule of two" - I have never heard of it, where's the description or citation? Sounds like snake oil. Maybe I'm biased because I don't do the dew lol
