Vegan steak has come a long way over the past few years. In fact, at this point, the best vegan steak might be too convincing for some vegetarians. Some of the mushroom-based steaks we tasted look and feel so much like raw meat when you’re cooking them that when I sent a photo to a vegetarian friend, she wondered aloud, “Who is that for??” So, yeah—super realistic-looking plant based steak isn’t for some people.

The last time I covered rare Mountain Dew flavors here on Sporked, I focused mostly on out-of-production flavors you can still find online. Rest assured, I got your comments and letters: “Griffin, tell us about rare Mountain Dew flavors we can just buy.” Today, I’m bringing you seven Mountain Dew flavors that are still currently in production that you might not know about. I’ve got a good thing going with the “7 Sodas” series here on Sporked, but this list deserves an honorable number eight.

Credit: Liv Averett / Amazon / Delallo / Instacart / Walmart I fall asleep to the Food Network. I live in a Northern New Jersey town featured prominently in The Sopranos. I work in an Italian restaurant. So I don’t go two seconds without someone asking if I want balsamic glaze or discovering that it’s already made its way into my food.
