"Cocaine" The Drink: Not a Spoof
Q: What do you think of the energy drink "Cocaine"? Their website says that it's a healthier, stronger version of Red Bull that doesn't let you down with a "crash."
A: I confess that I am no longer able to distinguish between real products and spoofs. Raised on Saturday Night Live and Mad Magazine, I naturally assume that a drink that delivers 350x the caffeine of Red Bull and is named after one of the most awful substances in the world is a big fat joke.
My opinion in this case is the same as that about Red Bull, except about 350 times more emphatic: this is a recipe for spiraling dependency, dealing with a symptom by delaying and intensifying its consequences.
If you need Cocaine - the powder or the drink - to function, look to your lifestyle and commit to making some changes right away.
