My go-to is Guru, not on that list. I really like it as it is not a sugary sludge like the others. However, I recently discovered Celsius sparkling water and was pleasantly surprised.
I really wish they made a caffeine free version of red bull (and dr. pepper, irn bru, and so on), I actually really enjoy the taste, but I hate how caffeine makes me feel.. The fact that so few sodas are caffeine-free nowadays is so screwed up.
This is not about supporting trans rights tho, is it. But okay, how about most western companies exited russia within six months after the invasion? RedBull hung in there for another couple of years. And you think they were concerned maybe a bunch of MAGAt shitheads would bring down their stock price temporarily? No.
I mean, I’ve heard the management are friendly with white supremacists but I don’t know why they stayed invested for so long in russia. I doubt it was fear of hillbilly discontent.
None of the things you described are sodas, so I don’t see how it’s comparable. There’s a difference between a cool drink and chocolate, it’s not just a matter of taste.
If you’re deciding solely on cost just buy a bottle of caffeine pills from your pharmacy. A 100 count bottle of 200mg pure caffeine (well, plus cellulose or whatever holds the pill together) costs me like $20. Now do the math on 100 red bulls.
I mean, no one who buys energy drinks does it only for the caffeine. I’m just saying there’s little difference between a redbull and a generic energy drink.
Some are just alcoholics too. Alcohol reduces your ability to absorb Vitamin B, so they need to supplement it. If you pay attention you will notice heavy drinkers tend to consume a lot of beef, slam energy drinks or both.
The relative prevalence and average amounts of the top ingredients were as follows: caffeine (100%; 174.4 ± 81.1 mg), vitamin B6 (72%; 366.9 ± 648.1 percent daily value (%DV)), vitamin B3 (67%; 121.44 ± 69.9% DV), vitamin B12 (67%; 5244.5 ± 10,474.6% DV), vitamin B5 (37.3%; 113.6 ± 76.6% DV), and taurine (37.3%; amounts undisclosed). Conclusions: Our findings suggest a high prevalence of caffeine and B-vitamins in these energy products, with many of the formulations containing well above the recommended daily value of B-vitamins.
Red bull is also the most expensive which is why I barely ever buy it. As someone that blocks every ad I possibly can, red bull is also the only one that has a slogan or catch phrase whatever “gives you wings is” that I know of so I guess marketing pays off.
Red Bull is the best tasting one but I never buy it because of the price. Luckily it’s also the brand that most knock offs copy so those are the ones I buy and like the best too.
