PepsiCo to take controversial ingredient out of Gatorade
| Quote: | | Responding to consumer concerns, PepsiCo today announced that it will remove brominated vegetable oil, an emulsifier, from citrus-flavored Gatorade. |
But nothing else.
Think, McFly! Think!
Once I learned of BVO, I gave up Mtn. Dew :(. Fortunately, it made me rediscover Mello Yello, which I prefer (and thought had been discontinued).

After I discovered the evils of Oxygen (it's what ages you and breaks down your body), I gave up water and go for straight hydrogen.

Why stop at water?
Oh, and that girl looks slightly retarded. I am thus never going to drink Gatorade, because it makes one look retarded.
The phosphoric acid used in cola drinks is a rust converter, but that doesn't stop me drinking Coke. Excess consumption would probably cause me to lapse into a diabetic coma long before I got to a toxic dose of acid. |

Water is >90% of most beverages. It's an awesome ingredient.

Wait... there are people who actually believe that bullshit?

wait, democrats think that spending a trillion more a year than they bring in is a good idea, and you're shocked that someone believed you can live off of sunlight alone for 70 years? |

Wait, people experience their environment as absolutely real, when quantum mechanics clearly prove that they are relatively real, aka, "real enough".
