Red Bull is nasty!

[SaltBoy]

This morning in the atrium of our office building, we white-collar folks were greeted by a bunch of perky, upbeat, loud, dot.com-generation salespeople. They were giving away a free can of Red Bull along with a small pamphlet about how beneficial the energy drink is.

I decided to take one from them. I'd never had Red Bull before, so who am I to judge it until I try it? After all, it was free. The ingredients and additives mentioned on the can definitely made it look like a somewhat beneficial energy drink. I was feeling a little sluggish this morning, so I decided to give it a go. It couldn't hurt.

After one sip, however, I knew that I could never finish that small silver and blue can. It tasted NASTY! I didn't know what to expect, but I knew I didn't want to drink a very sour version of Mountain Dew. Instantly, I scrunched up my faced, muttered "what the heck was THAT?" and stared at the can. Always willing to give something a second chance, I decided to take another sip. BAD idea. After a third sip, I realized that Red Bull Energy Drink was not for me.

If Red Bull gives you wings, I prefer to crawl on the ground, thank you very much. 🙂

Red Bull only tastes good if it's ICE cold otherwise, it's like a warm beer.

The salesfolks provided it cold. A co-worker of mine said it's an aquired taste. I prefer not to aquire it. 🙂

I like Red Bull, it's a very nice way to start your morning. Much better tasting than coffee.

At the bar on my birthday they had red bull and jager shots. They were horrible, I think that's what put me over the edge that night.

Rockstar is awesome. The taste is somewhat acquired, but its interesting until its acquired.

I don't know if this is an urban legend or not, but I heard that red bull was made from fluids from a bull's testicles. Any validity to this affirmation?

I like the Starbuck's Double Shot in some milk.
AMP is ok, and Sobe Adrenaline Rush is ok with a hint of Vodka.
Whoop Ass taste like $h!7.

Red bull is nasty. Seems every friggin bar is selling it. Even worse watered down. Personally, I rather suck on some Bawls. 😀
