I don't understand why grocery stores have store branded products for almost every item but never energy drinks. Do they understand many teenagers and young adults consume Monster or Red Bull for caffeine content only not brand loyalty, have limited budget, and will switch if a much cheaper generic product is available?
>>
>>22108728
Aldi and Ledl both have generic brands
>>
>>22108732
Haha WOW
you cannot be serious

>but never energy drinks

Caffeine is unbelievably terrible for you and is technically an addiction. All these energy drinks being trendy will get exposed someday as the evil corporations prey on the weak minded addict brains.
>>
>>22108820
Monster Ultra contains about the same amount of caffeine as a large cup of brewed coffee. Shut down coffee shops too if lower-caffeine energy drinks are so bad they should be banned.
>>
There's a fair amount of them that are budget due to no marketing, but they just tend to be at dollar stores.
>>
>>22108883
yeah but coffee tastes good unlike the zoomer piss that is monster ultra
>>
>>22108883
but 5x the sugar
>>
>>22108728
Valero used to have some for a buck a can. They were great. Idk if they still do. But yhe flavors and energy were both top notch.
>>

>prey on the weak
the bamboozled have no right to blame the bamboozler.

"venom" is a 16oz energy drink that goes for $1 around here, $1.50 at some other places, the "original" flavor tastes identical to redbull to me. So you get 3x the size for a third of the price
the black cherry kiwi flavor is also fine
>>
>>22108959
I think you mean 2x (16oz vs 8oz) but yeah.

There used to be dozens of brands out there specifically trying to undercut Red Bull and Monster. Considering the latter is up to almost $4 a can, it seems like this would be very easy to do. I miss when Jolt Cola relaunched at Dollar Generals for $1 a can.

10 years ago people who thought like this were fringe whackos everyone made fun of. Now they're 30% of the American population. What happened?
>>
>>22108915
Some people just can't take the tannins and lactones that give tea and coffee that slight bitter taste. Some energy drinks can be slightly less upsetting for the stomach for the same amount of caffeine.

Schizophrenia can be culturally fostered by "you do you" type libertarian shit in the west as people never get pushback for anything they spew no matter stupid they are and never learn to weigh likelihood of various conjectures in their heads.
>>
>>22109021
Stepping back and thinking about what you're saying? Schizophrenics do that too, we're just not a reliable source and nobody likes them enough to like do a filter, a fact check, before posting or saying things.
>>
>>22108820
>caffeine is unbelievably terrible for you
Not when taken in moderation, coffee and tea are generally good for you and are a net positive. Taking 200mgs to the dome in one sitting will do a number on your heart long term though. There's a reason those tall boy monster cans say they are 2 servings.
>>
I befriend a lot of old women that shop at my place, and encourage their habits. One has already offered to loan me money to fix my car
I'll be in their wills when all I did was ask "cigarettes today?" or "no celsius?"

People being too terminally online and believing some united elitist cabal conspiring to make their life worse personally gives them some form of comfort for all the shitty mistakes they made in their life.

it’s a shame I never see these anymore. I ran into a Venom vending machine once last year but it didn’t work, they probably hadn’t even stocked it in forever
>>
>>22109004
Pandemic hysteria opened a lot of people eyes to many new things. Some of the things they're seeing are real even though they previously weren't believed to be real. Some other things never were real but now are being entertained as possibly real. Expect this distrust in the basic fabric of society to continue to grow as more things that previous were considered to not be real are found out to have long been real. There will be side effects.

>jewish garbage called monster
how come they so often admit to being inhuman monsters, is it guilt or a sick sense of pride?
>red bull is austrian
>hitler was austrian
interesting

>>22108728
Man if all you care about is cheap caffeine then just take pills. Even if you insist on it tasting sweet then preworkout mixes are easy to find cheaper. Yeah they might taste kind of like shit but so do energy drinks, the only real downside is no carbonation.
>>
>>22108728
we have store brand energy drinks over here. usually they taste like red bull
>>
>>22108921
Monster Ultra does not contain any sugar, it's the sugarfree version
though energy drinks are not good for you, they're probably immeasurably better than the venti grande frappucino de diabetes many people seem to consume instead

They do in the UK at least. Plus there is Euro Shopper energy drinks.

americans, specifically republicans, are actively anti-public education and it shows in their academic benchmarks. it makes for a nice docile constituency that you can feed any fearmongering bullshit to and they'll believe it without question.
