Everyone knows at least one person that downs 4 Red Bulls or more a day. We can create a whole new market of people who do it under the guise of 'it's just lemonade dude lay off'.

I've seen this and also a manager at Ross who would chain drink black coffee out of a horribly stained coffee maker. He also smoked though so it was even stimmier. They call it legal speed baby!

there's some weird interactions between nicotine and caffeine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2057503/

I've seen some junk science say that nicotine cut's caffeine's effectiveness in half

My Panera story - when the charged lemonade first came out I made an Arnold Palmer with regular iced tea and I had an extremely unpleasant afternoon



this is literally the best Pantera song :colbert:

On one hand you shouldn't sell something with that much caffeine in it without at least putting a warning label on it but on the other if you're such a fat gently caress that you order 3 loving refills of sugar water (that's about 2.5L - 3L in normal measurements) when you visit a fast food joint that's all on you dumbass.

You'd think that would be a family size you get when you had too many kids and there's no chance in hell you're cooking that much food everyday but even American parents wouldn't give that to their kids. Right? :ohdear:

I guess at least it comes in bottles so in theory they won't have to drink it all in one evening.

The caffeine LD-50 and marijuana LD-50 are both absurdly high, yet only one is killing our sip club members. Recommendation: Kind Kola with 400 mg of thc to double the profits as we dip into new demographics, and potentially mellow out the lemonade crackheads.

Going to the soda fountain for some Downer Lemonade to mellow out from the Upper Lemonade, but accidentally getting the Deliriant Lemonade. My last sane thought before typing ebay.com: “drat you Panera Bread Research Chemicals Department, drat you to hell…”

The caffeine content doesn’t really seem absurd as far as energy drinks go so much as the volume. There’s a couple brands that are 300 mg/can that are about 16 oz, so you’d have to pound nearly 2 of those to get 30 oz and it’s be closer to 600 mg caffeine. Some other varieties are round 200 mg/can which would be about the same as this lemonade. Hell black coffee is like 80-100 per 8 oz cup so 4 of those would give you 32 oz and similar caffeine content.

The mind boggling part to me is it just being on a fountain machine you can grab as much as you want of. Kinda surprised more random kids haven’t ended up hospitalized.

Energy drinks don't do a great job of displaying their caffeine content as it is, either. It's usually in tiny print in a little box to the side of the nutrition label or something, and you kinda have to look for it. I've seen energy drinks that didn't show their caffeine content at all.

Caffeine should be listed on nutrition labels in the vitamin section, imo.
