      12 oz Mt Dew: 56mg

      12oz black coffee: Averages beteeen 120 and 180mg.

        I’m kind of shocked to realize just how closely their caffeine content lines up with how well I perceived them as headache cures before I learned about migraines and caffeine. I guess that’s how the ancients figured out which plants do what.

        Well fuck me sideways and call me wrong, because that’s what I am. Thanks for the correction. I just checked a couple of other sources, and there is definitely some differences between all of the ones I found, but yeah, coffee is definitely more than all modern sodas.
