At like $5 USD a can I would never find out if it was addictive or not

The people pumping out that crap must be rich.

Where did u find it at that price??? Thats crazy! I can get 3 for $5 at the Mobil station near my house.

I don't think it's any more addictive than caffeine.

I dont know what they cost man, I thought they were like $4 a can. I still wont spend $7 a week on "worthless garbage drinks."

If you want Taurine or something, why not buy it? Just my 3 shillings.

If it is addictive at all it must be mental, not a true 'drug' dependancy.

Its just taurine and caffiene i think, with some sugar added. Why the hell would you spend even 50 cents a can when you can just homebrew and get the same effect for pennies.

It tastes good and I can buy it from a gas station in a pinch. My gym doesnt sell any decent stimulants anymore, so when I run out of goods, I buy some Red Bull. Gives a decent boost. Not a big coffee drinker and I dont get a kick from tea anymore.

I don't really know your financial situation or anything, but have you tried online retailers like 1fast400/bulknutrition or some others. I would think even GNC/Vitamin Shoppe would be better than buying supps at a gym.

i only drink redbull with booze

Yup redbull is a nice chaser to vodka, but i usually drink it straight. If i want an extra kick i'll just bring some l-tyrosine, caff, ephedrine with me.

I dont buy supps from the gym on a regular basis. Like I said, in a pinch, when I run out of supps and am feeling lazy

LOVE Redbull and Vodka, mmmmm

**Mudge** · 12-30-2003, 05:52 PM

Pinch I can understand, but overall I'm a cheap bastardo.

**Var** · 12-30-2003, 06:03 PM

I hear ya. I'm the same way. I try to be stingy so I can justify all the cake I drop on supps every month.

Don't know if redbull is addictive or not but it sure tastes gross.

I had a redbull and vodka a couple weeks ago at this party and that wasw my first and last.....YUK

Redbull is nasty. As far as addictive, the only thing I can see, would be the caffeine.

**Power Rabbit** · 12-30-2003, 10:07 PM

try SPARKS!!!! IT SPARKS UP YOUR NIGHT!!! :-P red bull +cheap beer= a nasty yet good in its own way drink

yj stinger tastes better (at least the sugar free one ive tried)
i can imagine the caffiene can be addictive physically (dont know about the other stuff)
and the energy kick addictive mentally (gotta love it)

**Uthinkso** · 12-30-2003, 10:36 PM

I have never fealt any efects from an energy drink period, and I have tried them all.

I have sat down to a night full of RV's (redbull/vodka) and piles of Jager-Bombs and never fealt the buzzing anxious sensation that folks have reported getting from Red Bull.

I wonder why that is, maybe my metabolism processes so slow that it doesn't get he effects of the ingridients.

**Mudge** · 12-30-2003, 11:14 PM

Caff is addictive yes, there was a thing on 20/20 on people addicted to soda. They had one person with a pantry FILLED with Mountain Dew, talk about discusting (I think so, addictions are lame).
