Red Bull legal in Canada?
 

Just got an email from a friend in Vancouver who says it is on sale now and it does list Taurine as an ingredient. Is this the same stuff as is available everywhere else?

I believe it is legal everywhere in Canada.... at least, it was last time I've checked :glugglug

Really, I thought it was still banned beacause of the Taurine.

Yep this is not legal. The real Red bull is not legal. This is why a lot of company try to copy them but the taste is not the same at all.

The stuff from Thailand has Nicotine in it and there is no way that's legal. But as far as I can tell this is the same stuff that is commonly available.

I'm in Canada. Vancouver to be exact.

Whoever says it's illegal must have no idea.

Red Bull is sold in some stores including Seven Eleven which is where I purchased the red bull I'm drinking right now. I don't know why but for some reason, I believe that if something is sold in Seven fucking Eleven that it would be fucking LEGAL!!!

According to the label, it contains 1000mg of taurine per 250ml (one can).

It's imported by:

Red Bull Canada Ltd
2800-666 Burrard St
Vancouver, BC
V6C 2Z7

i don't know about canada, but i'm hooked on the shit. :glugglug

Ok I am under the impression this is a new thing, not more than a month or so.

I think it got approved in the last few weeks. 7-11s got tons of it in last week. I just wish they would approve Taurine for sale in capsules.:)

Yeah, I heard this aswell.


box 24 for $72

Health Canada put the brakes on for a bit because dumb fucks in bars were drinking all night/dancing/taking X and using it to keep going and then getting dehydrated, having wierd reactions and dying.

And that's a problem how exactly???

Yes its legal. My brother sells it at his store.

Lets think of it as idiot cleansing.

In Quebec you can find Red Bull in some convenience store but I don't know whwther it's the real stuff.

k thats fucked, thats the *exact* address of my lawyer who works for davis & co.

Must be legal if your lawyer is the one importing it

diff suite # maybe? it sounds like an office building addy

actually no! it's the exact address/suite #/building.....

haha that's weird

yeah, i can buy it at 7-11

That's right, it's very recent. I saw it in 7-11 in Toronto last week. Haven't seen it here in Montreal yet. It's expensive though... it was $2.89 a can in Tdot.

wtf? redbull was illegal in canada??
is that for real?

no, it's not for real. this thread was started specifically to trick the israelis.

Approved in June... I guess it took them a while to get to importing it.

There is a bunch of the horrible thai stuff here in Montreal, I wouldn't touch it because the nicotine makes it potentially addictive... Not something I want to get involved with.

check the ingredients on the canadian redbull its not the same as in the states.

I've never tried it before, can someone tell me what the hype is all about?

when i was studying at school the other day, some red bull people came by and gave us free cans as a promotion to give us energy or whatever....good stuff :thumbsup

I have a red bull bottle right here... it's not one of those cans, it's a small brownish glass bottle... all on it is in thai... there is an english label on it, but it doesn't say anything about nicotine... I'm very suspicious though.. because the label has clearly been added in Canada, and the rest is in thai. I bought that bottle in Montreal..

Yeah.. the montreal ones can be found in most china towns across canada....
they don't contain taurine, they sometimes contain nicotine, they're not carbonated....

the good stuff are the carbonated ones.. in a can.. with taurine :)

was at a strip club across the falls in canada.. sundowners... asked for a vodka and redbull.. they didn't have redbull but they had "energy" same shit.

weird thing, I can't even find a pic of it on the net... mine doesn't say anything about taurine or nicotine.. but the fact that the label was glued over the thai one.. kinda scary imho. :glugglug

Still haven't had one. I've given up.

I have seen redbull for sale here but I buy it in the states (cheaper) when possible.

Some people can't stand the taste, others don't mind it. It does help you stay awake though.

i saw redbull in canada at a corner store for 2.99 a can and 64.99 for a case of 24, all canadian dollars, but thats nuts still

a couple months ago it was illegal and they were importing thailand red bull but just like a month ago they got the liscense or whatever and now the real stuff is legal so lets praise that even though that stuff and vodka made me the sickest ive ever beeen :helpme

They sell it at 711 across the street from my place... so it must be legal.

666 is a good address for a lawyer
