Brominated veg oil is the thing that gives mountain dew the unique mouth feel, and sometimes light oil slick appearance once stale.

  Would you please elaborate on the "unique mouth feel" of mountain dew, for someone who hasn't had it?

    It has a slight "coating" effect, when compared to a normal effervescing carbonated beverage.

  Well, the oil slick is the brominated oil not doing its job…

  Is it really not in anything else? Seems like I have seen it in the ingredients for other things.
