A lot of people think Red Bull is banned in all these countries, it's not so much banned as it is "not yet approved". And it's not Red Bull that isn't approved, it's taurine that isn't approved.

When Red Bull started in Austria in the 1980s it took 3 years to get approved, it then moved on to Germany where it took 5 years to get approved. It's not that it was banned in these countries, it's that it wasn't approved.

But for the sake of Red Bull myth and legend, they like the fact that people think it's "banned" because that makes it taboo, and therefore all the "cool kids" gotta have it.
