    I had one….felt very ill after. Sickly sweet 🤢🤮

    • +9

      100% such a bad after taste

    • +1

      The taste will be better after diluting with 500ml of water, so that one bottle becomes two bottles.

      • +1

        If that was the case they'd sell them diluted already and make more profit.

      • I do this with Gatorade already.
        Goes down so much better.

  • +11

    I dont think they're selling well now that the hype has died down. My local stores seem to have tons of stock and no longer have the four per person limit. I've also not had a single person l know say they've enjoyed the taste

  • +1

    That didn’t last long. Logan and KSI should see the writing on the wall and sell asap

    • -1

      They don't own it. They are paid to promote it.

      • They are two of the 6 owners..

  • +7

    horrible drink tried most of them and they all make me feel sick as there so sweet.

  • I actually like the taste. Very strong flavour for the number of calories. At this price they’re not a complete rip off.

      Which ingredients in particular do you have a problem with?

      • bro only drinks water

      • Water. It's a well-known fact that people who consumed water eventually all passed away.

        • Dihydrogen monoxide strikes again!

    These two guys highlighted how gullible the western worlds male youth are.. My son like many others wouldnt stop talking about it and building hype further during the the initial shortage, wanting to collect bottles, for products that taste like rubbish. Well played Paul, keep your money and pull your product.

    • +8

      I really don't think its just the western worlds male youth. Humans are stupid and fall for a lot of stuff in every walk of life.

  • +9

    Honestly human piss would have more nutritional value than that

  • How the hell does my little kids know about this product and I never heard of it before?

    • +1

      It's a drink brand majority owned and promoted by two VERY popular young male demographic YouTubers (Logan Paul and KSI). They either know it from being on the internet, or from their friends who are.

    • I only found out about it because of the tv game show 'Have You Been Paying Attention'. They showed a clip of some boy going wild because he received the drink as a birthday present (the drink was gift wrapped by his mum and was obviously the shape of the bottle, but the kid still went nuts when he opened it…)

    • 1) YouTube
      2) Classmates

      Interesting how the drink was marketed hard at primary school kids, but

      NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN UNDER 15 YEARS OF AGE

      Then they made it scarce.
      Then they got schools to ban it.

      It's simple, yet brilliant marketing.

  • +9

    Terrible drink from two terrible youtubers

  • +4

    Objectively garbage for rehydration.
    Next to no sodium and glucose and way too much potassium.

    Avoid it as a sports drink if you actually need to replace electrolytes.

    *Would not be anywhere near as much controversy over this product if it wasn't marketed as a hydration drink.

    • +1

      I still think the controversy would be there, hell everyone I spoke to about it in the early days of the hype assumed it was another energy drink. The controversy was definitely around the faces behind the brand and their influence over young boys.

      • +1

        They weren't allowed to sell the overseas energy drink version in Australia because it contained an illegal amount of caffeine IIRC, hence the "hydration" version.

        • Yes but our legal limit is also pretty low, and coffee drinks are exempt and can exceed an energy drink in caffeine and that's allowed and not demonized like these energy drinks.

          The drinks are crap but because of the price and hype, there is nothing bad in them.

          I have never seen anyone telling office workers they are going to die when they have a few coffees a day, but that is the same as drinking several energy drinks.

        • OTR in South Australia sell the banned energy drink version as an 'app click and collect exclusive'. Not sure how, but they do. They spruiked themselves as being the only licensed Australian supplier, and only for SA stores.

          • @BradH13: Turns out it's a different formulation for the local market, that's been retooled to exactly the legal limit in Australia.

  • +12

    I won't support Logan Paul because of his involvement in the cryptozoo scam. Despite promising refunds. It's clear he profited substantially from other ventures too. I don't want to contribute to his financial success given his past actions.

      That's your only objection?

    • Disappointing as he sounds like a scammer. Reminds me of the Cosby's Superstore/Omo deal promises to refund but customers are still waiting

  • These are horrid

  • They got the whole concept of the energy drink wrong when it comes to nutrition content ratios, but did marketing exceptionally well

  • Don't think I've EVER seen any of these drinks at either of my 2 local Coles.. 🤣

  • Last time I saw one guys with about 8 Bottles of Prime. He empty the shelf of course. I tried to persuade hime to release one for me, because my kids remind me every time when he was in the supermarket. I just want to know what the hell this product taste look like.

  • It's a caffeinated energy drink with artificial sugar and really no different to Red Bull etc.

    • Is it carbonated? I assume not. Not much plastic is apart from giant name companies. Only thing else I can think of is Lucozade.. 😅 Are you telling me this is like drinking flat Redbull? 🤮
