I thought that the sugar industry worked really hard to ensure they didn't have to show a daily % amount on the right across from the grams listing. I have never seen a % there before. Crazy.

Luckily for me caffeine gives me a seizure.

That means I can drink two!

Wait why are you not drinking red bull zero

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 0 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

All zero drinks are disgusting and I have no idea why people drink that shit. If you don't want to get fat, don't drink soda. Very simple.

[–] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 2 points 51 minutes ago

You can rip the sucralose from my cold dead hands. Keep your disgusting corn sugar.

Because it's disgusting. The aftertaste and the way it coats my mouth is just nasty.

The slogan, "RedBull gives you Wings" needs an asterisk. It only applies to those who are grated into heaven after they die of diabeetus

This comment made my shit night

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

You probably shouldn't look at the sugar in the sweet tea from McDonald's then....

Actually, I believe I know it despite not living in America: isn’t it 29 grams of sugar for a large?

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Ooooo… don’t tempt me… McDonald’s has a memeable slogan too…

On second thought: I think Spurlock beat me to it (because he was telling the tru- oh wait…)

"Nah im not tired or insomniac i just love consuming 3 cans of bull piss every single day it tastes just good"

[–] krisevol@lemmus.org 2 points 7 hours ago

The fastest way to give lab rats diabetes is to feed them vegetable oil.

[–] jlow@slrpnk.net 4 points 9 hours ago

There are few drinks that I can't stand the smell of but Redbull just smells fucking disgusting.

As someone who grew up avoiding sugar and having to look at the back of everything this would have been relatively low in sugar compared to other products sold in that same store in my area. In the South of the US you would have a hard time finding something lower than sprite and or tea(~35g)without alternative synthetic sweeteners like aspertain and sucralose or just water and those options used to be sparce. A lot of times a convenience store would only have diet coke, unsweet tea, or water unless I was okay with 30+ grams of sugar. I'm not saying that it's okay to have that much sugar, but it definitely seems far out of the way from some of the much lower hanging fruit. For example even Gatorade and Powerade have more sugar per package unit and those were available via vending machines IN the school. Also, pretty much every fast-food drink station makes you choose between water, unsweetened tea, or something with almost 50g of sugar when in a can.

Nah it’s just the total amount of the calories that is from suger. It only … hmm.. only has 26g of sugars in it.

[–] Acklavidian@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

That was kinda the ceiling seemed like everyone was trying to avoid. So a lot of 48 and 49. But all might as well have been surge to me. ...Surge had 56g a can if I recall.

[–] kestrel7_7@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Just looked at the Mexican coke I just finished drinking 😭 39g sugar…

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world -2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (2 children)

When you visualize it like this, it makes you think twice about grabbing that sugary beverage. Having said that, I still like a red bull here and there, and sugar free just ain't the same.

Edit removed slop, changed pic

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Hmm, according to this graphic 7 == 9 == 10 > 14. I see LLMs still can't do math

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Yeah, I fucking hate the post AI Internet. I used to be able to find the relevant image when I searched it up, not AI garbage.

[–] ReconciliationTime22128@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Um… excuse me, but isn’t Mountain Dew that pop drink in america? Why tf is Frappuccino labeled as Mountain Dew?

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

I didn't notice that. Probably slop. Here's a better image

[–] anistorian@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Here’s one of the total amount of sugar in a Monster Zero Sugar.

Fair enough, although it would be better with numerical measurements

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 3 points 10 hours ago

*Beetus Juice

[–] Zensate@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

I mean, diabetes also gives you wings?
