Got PRIME? (Not Amazon, Logan Paul and KSI)

‘Absolute chaos’ as Aldi shoppers shove young children to buy Prime drink (msn.com)

I'll try it if it becomes available around here5 without insanity needed to get it. I thought that it was an energy drink at first, but from reading that article, it has no caffeine, so it's mmore of a coconut water / vitamin / anti-oxidant drink. Which is I suppose fine as well.

Edit: Review:

Says that he likes the fruit punch and lemon-lime the best (most "traditional" flavors).

I wonder why they didn't do a "grape" flavor? Or Cola?

WTF is wrong with people? How can they not see they are being manipulated by these social media personalities? Or do they see it and think "hey that's OK"?

If kids weren't meant to be pushed, god wouldn't have made them small.

Oh, and people with two first names piss me off.

Translation: "absolutely LOADED with dietary sugars and with little to NO nutritional value from added vitamins"

People are so dumb it's literally painful to watch.


Take a multi-vitamin every day and EAT YOUR VEGGIES.

I bought a case of prime drinks from sams club last year.
They are not very tasty and they have some sort of thickener in them which gives them a gross mouthfeel. They are also sweetened with sucralose which gives them an off sweetness.
I still have a mostly full case in the basement, maybe I should try to sell them.

My son and his girlfriend were round today so I asked them what was up with the chaos around that drink.
They said "Stupid people. Stupid people everywhere. "
Proud dad moment.

I tried Prime when I was in Walmart last year. It's a very good drink. Had no idea that it was owned by the Logan Brothers.

They are smart. They unbderstand that social media is a short game. Its why they are using their fame, while they are still very popular, and have cashed in big time. With podcast, boxing and their Prime drink.

They are making millions. Good for them.

Basically a vitamin E supplement in watery form and coconut, loaded with artificial sweeteners sucralose and acesulfame potassium. I guess if kids don't eat a rich vitamin E source like nuts, avocado, etc...this could be of a little benefit in that regard.

I'd probably have avoided it even if I didn't care about diet because...I hate coconut and acesulfame potassium makes me feel odd and ever so slightly worse after consumption.

They are vacuous opportunists that add absolutely nothing to the sum of human experience. They are parasites on society.

I thought people fighting over Black Friday TVs was dumb, but this, over a drink? lol.

Schumer asks FDA to investigate Logan Paul's energy drink PRIME, which has the caffeine of 6 Coke cans​

CBS Dallas|8 hours ago
NEW YORK — PRIME, an energy drink backed by influencer Logan Paul that has earned viral popularity among children, is facing scrutiny from lawmakers and health experts over its potentially dangerous ...


Lock him up!!!

 

[Red Squirrel]

Imagine some people are probably pounding down multiple of those in one sitting too. That's a dangerous amount of caffeine.

 

[Captante]

Don't mean to burst anyones "righteous indignation bubble" lol but that's only about 200 mg's of caffeine. (or 2x No-doze tablets or 2x strong cups of coffee)

Not exactly a smart choice in one sitting but hardly "dangerous" for an adult especially one with a high caffeine-tolerance. (kids might be a different story)

And also no more than in quite a few other energy-drinks that have been around for years. Not much to see here folks.

whoops

Yep… 200mg is about the amt caffeine in a cup of weak-sauce coffee.

My pre workout has 200 mg caffeine. Not a big deal.

Logan Paul should be investigated for being a scammy grifter instead.

Would be cool if they sold in reusable bottles like the old days and delivered them. We would have a Prime Man.
