You guys know what's in these enrgy drinks?

One thing that may gross you out....the ingredient "Taurine", which is in all energy drinks is in fact "Cow Bile".

I'm sure most of you know what cow bile is so i will not continue further.

I have not been able to drink an energy drink since finding this out.

Look it up!
It's true...sadly.

You seriously need to do some research, Taurine was first made by extracting taurine from cow/ox bile, this method was only used for a short time. After a while they started to make it synthetically because of the fact cow bile makes people not want to drink it. So now all taurine is synthetic because it is cheaper than extracting it from cow bile and that more people will drink the synthetic product.

I love monster. I buy them in bulk, 24 cans for $30 USD. I got monster stickers on my bike. I don't care if it's cool or not, and it doesn't give me energy, it just tastes sooo good.

I'm sorry if this sounds rude, but you say that, and your display pic if a Nike check.

I'll eat more hotdogs in your favour, I don't care if they have dead mice in them, they taste good.

sorry but i dont understand what you mean, i wear their shoes biking, and another pair of casual, its no different than someone displaying a pic of a kona or khs logo as their headshot. im just displaying a brand im happy with and use. im not saying that who ever buys monster is dumb and falling for a trap, im just saying that there is no such thing a liquid energy. just my oppinions, im sure you support a brand to, everyone does. it can be cars, shoes, bikes, anything.
