selling redbull to 12 year olds
 

should be against the law. Group of boys on the corner each with a can of redbull in hand. Mine as well give them crack.

whats the difference between redbull and feeding kids candy from when they are born? More kids are hooked on sugar than rebull.

SUGAR is the #1 addictive thing in the world right now.

The biggest reason sugar does more damage than any other poison, drug or narcotic is twofold:

(a) It is considered a "food" and ingested in such massive quantities, and

(b) The damaging effects begin early, from the day a baby is born and is fed sugar in its formula. Even mothers milk is contaminated with it if the mother eats sugar, and

(c) Practically 95% of people are addicted to it to some degree or other.

Im tired of seeing FAT kids.

wtf, its a stupid nasty tasting drink

yeah but you gotta give it to them for their marketing. half a can for double/triple the price of regular drinks. i want their customers.

... I was brought up on redbull, my testicles have the size of basketballs ... redbull should be forbidden !!!

fine, ban sugar sales to them too

it took me ages to cut the sugar, now i don't use it at all

Redbull has a high dose of caffeine and taurine. Not ideal for a 12y.old kid.

at least they should drink it with vodka

its the parents that start it. the parents are ALWAYS to blame.

i cut sugar out of my diet a long time ago.

i was amazed at how fast I started dropping pounds. when I quit smoking cigarettes I gained about 20+ lbs, started drinking lots of soda and stuff like peppermints and hard candy to pass the cravings, well sugar and sodium is just as bad as cigarettes.

no soft drinks and no refined sugar

:)

the only way to be.

this shows CONTROL.

few people can go without sugar.

:thumbsup

I believe there was something in the news a while back about a teenager having some sort of attack during athletics in school because he drank a bunch of redbull...

I love that stuff!!! It's also great with vodka!!:thumbsup

How much coke does an average kid drink in a day now, 1L? How many times a month do they eat McDonalds? One can of Redbull is the least of their problems.

damn.. no sugar, no soda, no caffeine, no pot, no porn.

It was harder for me to quit sugar than cigarettes, but I did it. Coke was the hardest, epsecially Jack and Cokes, but damn that shit's gross when you think about it.

caffeine also is addictive and bad for children

ban coffee as well

ban mcdonalds too

shit let's just ban it all and get bow and arrows and hunt deer for food

thanks fletch, I doubt I can do the same with caffeine though. I don't mind to eat anything all day, but I need coffee

I think effects of RedBull are vastly exagerated..

why not let them smoke crack ?

It's all about Rockstar... same price with like 4x the shit.

You wont live longer...... It will just feel like it

I quit caffeine as well. another great move.

the only bad things I put in my system are beer and pot.

i used to consume it all.

I dont even take aspirin, hahaha if I quit drinking and smoking herbs I would be totally straight edge. no chemicals in my body except mexican piss and medically grown marijuana.

hahah

:thumbsup

as long as they don't do any harm to them, i don't mind. who knows, they were just asked to do so.

crack? that's a different issue.

no, they were being idiots..giving the local shop keeper hell. I just noticed they were all guzzling redbull. I am sure the last thing they needed was a stimulant.

the real red bull

everyone quite smoking, drinking alcohol, stay away from caffeine, don't eat red meat or butter..stay away from fatty foods...start exercising...jog two miles daily and get hit by a truck:thumbsup

Fletch are you saying sugar and caffeine are worse than alcohol and marijuana ? :1orglaugh

i am

fuck that. I'm a fat american - I want my redbull, I want my mcdonalds, I want my old fashion styrofoam containers which will NEVER degrade. I want the Die Hard trilogy, budweiser in cans, and 6 double cheeseburgers. god fucking bless america.

They're certainly worse than marijuana.

this is almost as bad as the oreo lawsuit. thats the problem with people now adays, they personally think something is wron and dont want their kids to do it, so they move to ban.. when simply they should worry about their own children and not everyone elses.

if parents let their kids do soemthing, thats their business, dont ruin it for everyone

'Beer and sugar grams.

Alcohol contains 7 kilocalories per gramme. Forty grammes of alcohol (which corresponds to four 25 cl glasses of lager) contain as many calories as 70 g of sugar. As a comparison, four glasses of a soft drink (eg. coke) contain as much as 132 g of sugar, which is twice as much as four glasses of beer. Beers with a higher alcohol content contain more calories.

Wines and spirits contain more calories than beer.

The calorie content of beer is determined by the quantity of fermented sugars and by the alcohol, and generally varies from 30 to 45 kcal per 100 ml.

In comparison to other drinks, this is rather low.'

But to answer your question, yes.

because most people consume sugar and caffeince daily for their entire life and are addicted to them and dont ever really know. I went on a diet once and started getting really bad headaches, it was because I cut out the soda, ever since then, I have made sure to cut down and eventually stopped drinking it.

Unlike drinking alcohol or marijuana, at least I admit they may be bad , but still not as worst as drinking 2 liter cokes and coffee everyday.

Ive cut down my drinking and other bad things that Im down to only 2 and one I only do on the weekends.

So the comparison could be argued from many angles.

'The problem that arises in coping with sugar addiction is that sugar is in so many common foods now, it's practically impossible to cut it out completely. You can't eat a sandwich without getting sugar from the bread or the mayo. You can't eat a salad without getting sugar from the dressing.'

If you dont drink everyday (which i do not) sugar can very well be worst than alcohol, since alcohol has a shitload of sugar anyway.

Marijuana is in a whole new league though.

;)

wanted to add:

marijuana is the only one of the stimulants mentioned that does NOT have a chemically addicting component.

sugar, caffeine, and alcohol all cause CHEMICAL addiction, herbs do not.

=)

I am a redbull fan, but this year they released, "Sugar Free" in a baby blue can.

Lee takes the redbull sugar arguement and dumps it in the trash. :-)
