I was compelled to write this review primarily to warn others of this horrible soda. It is one of the worst diet sodas I have ever drank, a perfect storm of nasty artificial flavors. Even if the idea of a lemon, lime, and mandarin orange-flavored diet soda is intriguing to you, please heed my warning and do not buy it. You will likely be very disappointed. In fact, I’ll bet that you don’t even finish drinking the can or bottle. Yes, it’s that bad. Thankfully, it is a “limited-edition” soda, released as cross promotion with the movie Get Smart. Hopefully, it will be gone from the marketplace soon so that other unsuspecting consumers can’t waste their money on it. Undercover Orange is also available in a regular (non diet) version, which I haven’t tried.
Phoood rating:
Take it from me, the non-diet must not be any better. It just tasted like drinking corn syrup or something. I didn't not get the "mandarin orange" twist that they promised. Not good.
I much prefer ALL 3 of the new Mountain Dew flavors.

Posted by: demunchkin at June 26, 2008 9:53 AMI really enjoyed the taste of this soda. I tried a couple of two liter bottles and like it so much, I bought ten more. I am really sorry it was a limited edition. I would like to be able to buy more of it.
Posted by: frogeena at July 1, 2008 7:54 PMHorrible? Some people just need to be dramatic I guess. It is no worse than normal Sierra Mist, if youare inclined not to be impressed. Demunchkin is right, use it with an orange vodka (awesome) or even some quality tequila and you will not be disappointed.

Posted by: Brian at July 20, 2008 8:38 PMI thought it was one of the best diet sodas around. Bought up as much as I could. Would like to see it around all the time. Loved it.

Posted by: Kyle B. fan at July 27, 2008 3:26 PMI blended it with ice and vodka sure was tasty
Posted by: mari at August 6, 2008 11:28 PMI personally loved this drink!
Posted by: Jerrabella at August 7, 2008 8:39 PMI just loved this flavor! Please, please, please continue to produce this flavor!!!
Posted by: Mindy Soares at August 17, 2008 10:35 AMLoved it!!! I used the Free version and thought it had a good, crisp orange bite. Wish they would continue to make it. Already I can't find it in any of my stores and I'm so sorry I didn't stock up. Bring it back, PLEASE!

Posted by: Nana at August 25, 2008 9:52 AMI love this drink in the non-diet version, and now I've discovered that it's no longer available in stores. I agree that the diet version tastes awful. Please bring back the non-diet mandarin orange. You can take Steve Carell off the label, I just want the soda.
