The dirty little secret of the FDA is that most of the ‘additives’ to what the majority of people call food are not fully tested and/or approved. The companies received a waiver after initial tests showed that rats and/or people did not drop dead and keep ‘renewing’ those waivers without testing. Can’t prove that their crap in foods might be the cause of the rise in cancer, diabetes, alzheimers etc. . .And the masses just accept this state of being. Now the pharma companies are pushing (with cooperation of Congresscritters) to have drugs pass go (without heavy testing) and have the people get to take them as uniformed test subjects. . .
Scary stuff when the corporate bottom line and Congress get together and create a buracracy (FDA) which has no soul and just exists to justify itself?!? However, don’t think I’m some sort of vegan food/med nazi - I love my cokes, big macs and Little Debbie is my idol. And I’d be insane by now, if I didn’t have my little synthetic thyroid pill daily.
I do however try to buy organic and natural as much as I can - as I tell my husband and kids - you can dump the sugar bowl or salt shaker on it - but at least we know what was put in/oon it. And I watch what medication I take and consider supplements and/or homeopathic as alternatives.
There is supposedly one of these ‘drinks’ called cocaine - good ole American greed - gotta love it.
The only reason to drink it is with vodka,not that I know anything about that
Try Jolt Cola instead...think about twice the caffeine as Mountain Dew.
If you’re really a freak just munch magic ‘shrooms and wash them down with Dew. I won’t promise that you won’t chew the upholstery off your steering wheel though.
One of my co-workers was persistent in his consumption of “Jaegerbomb” (sp?) shooters,
a mix of Red Bull and Jaegermeister liquor to the point of being rushed to the ER with an
irregular hearbeat. Go figure…
