Red Bull Tastes Nasty!


Long story short, this stuff tastes like crap! Now to reverse engineer the short story. The only way to describe how this crap tastes is to say that if I were to open a can of Ginger Ale only to have Richard Simmons come up behind it and piss in it, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I don't even know why I took a second drink of this stuff, possible self loathing on my part? This stuff puts the "tar" in "taurine". I know this has been out for a while, but I couldn't justify paying that much for a drink, unless of course I was in a tittie bar. I was given a can to try and to be honest, I was really looking forward to it. I couldn't be more disappointed if I ate a whole plate of Rocky Mountain Oysters only to be told later what they actually were. I'm sticking with Rooster Booster Lite(found at QT). Stupid name, but a better drink and half the price. I start my day with it every single morning, I've been doing it for almost 2 years now. Nuclear Energy(found at Kum&Go) is very similar in taste and price. I get this if I can't scrounge up the booster.

For those of you who are fans of the bull, all power to ya. For me the stuff is just nasty, end of story.

Umm. I think I'll stick with my coffee, thanks. :-)

you should really try XS energy drinks. Not only are they beneficial for you in terms of vitamin B but they come in really great tasting flavors which are all natural

Never heard of XS, but I'll keep an eye out for it. I have also tried Monster energy drink with the Green lettering. It tasted a lot like red bull, nasty. Speaking of coffee, I have just about perfected an iced coffee recipe that is brewed to wake up Montana.

The only thing I drink out of a can says Miller High Life on it. When my wife and I were first married, 30+ years ago, we caravaned with her folks throughout the midwest and Canada for months at a time. In the mornings, her Dad would make boiled coffee. Lots of coffee, boil it, let the grounds settle and pour it in a cup with sugar and cream. If you didn't burn your tongue, you were in for a caffiene treat. Coffee and a cigarette sitting on the trailer steps. Now that was living!

I agree!!! IMO Red Bull has some sort of chalky, vitaminy tasting quality (or lack thereof) to it. I think they do that on purpose so that dumb asses will think ... if it tastes like a vitamin, it must be good for me!! And what's with all the people who will eat and drink stuff that tastes like crap but that is purported to be healthy? Either way, you still die in the end.
