I'm sad the original formula for Four Loko was banned. It's brightly colored containers appealed to me, and I was planning to try it sometime in the future. Fuck the FDA.
Haha... that's impressive. What'd they do? Put meth in it?
Oh, last year or early this year, the FDA was getting complaints about caffeinated alcoholic beverages, and they said, "We never did say caffeine was a safe additive to alcoholic drinks." Well, earlier this week, they ruled caffeine is an unsafe additive to alcohol.
Senator Charles Schumer said:
“Let these rulings serve as a warning to anyone who tried to peddle dangerous and toxic brews to our children. Do it and we will shut you down. This ruling should be the nail in the coffin of these dangerous and toxic drinks. Parents should be able to rest a little easier knowing that soon their children won’t have access to this deadly brew.”
Yeah, thanks Chuck. If I want to put two perfectly legal substances in my body, I will.
