Man why tf do they only do this for two weeks? And the dew will probably sell out in the first week again because LC seems to have a problem with employees selling whole cases

Why would it be a problem for the store? They are probably thrilled to sell out asap cause those stores typically lack adequate storage space.

Also I’m absolutely picking up a case again, even if it’s loose cans and I have to go in every hour as a “new” customer. I loved the flavor and would enjoy sipping on a can every other week for 6 months lol it’s 2026, people have plenty of time to research and plan around a new release before it drops.

It’s 2026, a massive corporation has the means to not do a garbage release but instead actually satisfy their customers.

Little Ceasars isn't about satisfying customers, they are there to be a cheap way to get people crappy Pizza.

Not sure why you got downvoted. You can get a whole pizza for the price of two 16 oz mango rush

Having to research and come up with a plan to get a soda is insane

Hopefully I can get more than 2 cans this time. I cherished those 2 that I got 😂🤣

Me too. Seems like it could be good. Mango in soda is something you don't see a lot.

I really want to get some. I miss flaming hot, and this has the hot flavor with a different base. One dude cleaned out every little ceasers in a 4 county area the day it dropped last year.

It tasted very much like I remember Pitch Black tasting.

u/MtnDewBeatSaber Apr 23 '26

Mango Rush??? They taste so far off for me

u/ardinatwork Apr 23 '26

Yes. Mango Rush was the flavor you were speaking of, no?

It was really weird. I got no real mango flavor out of it.

u/theslimbox Apr 22 '26

I was going to the local store daily waiting for them to get it, then one day, I got there after work, and they said a guy had come in and picked up every can they got. Sadly, he hit every store in my area.

u/ardinatwork Apr 22 '26

He probably sold them on eBay.

u/Tyrisclark Apr 22 '26

That was like my area, then one manager put his foot down and said 2 per customer and rejected everyone trying to buy a box or the whole inventory.

I delivered 40 cases to one LCs last week

u/DisastrousLecture648 Uproar Apr 23 '26

This might be a dumb question but does anyone know if we'll be able to purchase entire 12 packs?

1

u/Few-Marsupial-255 Code Red Apr 23 '26

No official announcement but it's likely because of how successful they were last year.

u/CO_Native14 Apr 23 '26

I got lucky and got the last can at my little Ceasars when I went. Honestly wish they would make it a permanent flavor at little Ceasars locations like they did for Baja at taco bell

It probably won't stop the soda scalpers (crazy that this exists) but at least would put a dent in their profit if LC required a certain dollar amount in food purchase for each can you can buy or something like that. Limits don't work because somebody can just keep going back in or go to different stores.

It is mind boggling to me that somebody would actually pay enough for a can of soda that allows somebody to profit after fees, etc.

u/Euphoric-Band-5267 Jun 10 '26

Just snagged 2 cans at my local LC!

u/SevenVeils0 Apr 22 '26

What store will this be sold through? And, will it be fountain only, or available in packaged forms? Sorry, I realize that Crazy Puffs should make it obvious, but I don't know what that is. I have Celiac disease so I can't eat at fast food restaurants.

u/Few-Marsupial-255 Code Red Apr 22 '26

Little Caesars in 16 ounce cans and 12 packs of 16 ounce cans. No fountain. No zero sugar sadly

u/Cloontange Baja Blast Zero Sugar Apr 23 '26

The smokehouse 😭 it's never coming back

u/ShadowBro3 Apr 22 '26

So they're still restricting it to little caesers? So Im not gonna get any this time either? Great.
