Energy drinks

why are they a bad thing?  A lot of soda pop out there has a similar amount of caffeine, but they don't advertise themselves as energy drinks.

My son in the Marines drinks them, and he loves them. But it might be a different kind because they're Japanese energy drinks. He's over there, ya know.

I don't drink energy drinks. 
 
You bought two fish fillets? Gross

Is there actually any proof that energy drinks are significantly more dangerous to your health then any other kinds of soda? I used to drink them a lot but now I hardly ever do, maybe 1 can every 4-5 weeks.

Diabetes in a can, that includes soda as well, and iced tea.

I dont really drink that much pop. But these energy drink have other stuff in them that makes them bad.For kidsenergy drinks on a regular basis is not a good thing.

" i purchased 2 fish sandwiches and milk shake and order of fries. I do not myshelf drink energy drinks at all and I think they are a real problem in society.

Why should McDonalds give a shit, its not like anything else there is good for you.

" Again energy drinks at mcdonalds is just promting a bad thing in my opinion. Thought all of these fast food places trying to promote healthy choices. Its all about the $$. "

I used to drink them a lot, now I can only drink Red Bull. They are the only one I find that I can stand now... everything else is just a copy of each other. I haven't had one in about a month or so, I should get one soon. What do you guys like?

Pie. Pie. Pie. Pie. Pie.

energy drinks are gnarly and give me migraines, so I don't drink them. But people can drink whatever they want, dawg. There's no reason MCD's shouldn't be able to carry the drinks.

I quite like Energy drinks, it is a fitting substitute for alcohol.

McDonald's? Really?

Energy drinks are refreshing. It makes sense to market them at mcdonalds, also it makes the fat people who spend most of their time at McD's feel like they are in the x games.

I love filet-o-fish(es).

I try not to drink 'em but they're not terrible. Then again I drink a lot of pop with aspartame so I dunno which is worse.

govermentcheese seems to hate everything in life. And the irony is hilarious. Must be a mid life crisis, seeing how he's 49 >_>

really mcdonalds? it sounds kind of nasty. when i think of mcdonalds i think of greasy nasty food that taste good. i think that soda has just about the same amount of caffeine then energy drinks. it causes blood pressure to go up. i had a friend die from taking to many caffeine pills before.

" its bull piss in it.But its yummy. "

that's awesome hope my mcdonald's starts that :D

" @govermentcheese: You purchased two fish sandwiches, a milk shake, and some fries from McDonalds...you're worried about the energy drinks though? lmao. "

That's also what they call my blood.  Also energy drinks have an absurd amount of shark testosterone in them. Drinking too much causes your testicles to shrink and become grey.  "

I recently drove by a Carl's Jr. and they are selling Monster Energy now, the regular green ones. "

The first thing your doing wrong is eating mcdonalds

2 fish sandwiches is a lot worst for your health then any energy drink, especially since they come from mcdonalds. 

My son, who's in the Marines stationed in Japan, has informed me over our Ham radio set-up that they sell saki in the McDonalds in Roppongi. He also stated the burgers in Tokyo are far neater than those in America. These are truths that I speak.

another great topic from govt cheese.

Energy Drinks were an addiction of mine and I have long since quit. 
The drug store I work at used to have an age limit of 16 to purchase, I'm not sure what happened to that though.

Most energy drinks have very similar ingredients to regular ole' soda in them, and. in fact, a lot of sodas are less healthy for you than energy drinks. At least the energy drinks will give you some vitamins on top of your caffeine injection. The biggest difference is the Taurine, which is just a more highly concentrated form of caffeine. 
 
But that's not to say I endorse energy drinks, either. Use them in moderation, if you have to use them at all.
 
I just drink nature's energy drink: black coffee.

Energy drinks are a bit to sugary. I like good old coffee.
