we gotta listen to each other a trains turbo rush energy drink pro skaters and riders love monster
energy drinks but there are plenty of people out there who would rather drink sewer water
here are 10 reasons why monster energy is so hated monster it's filled with useless and questionable
ingredients hang on you're adding kerosene peter that's insane that'll destroy your body
have you ever looked at the ingredient list on the side of a monster energy can most of the
ingredients are chemical compounds with extremely hard to pronounce names you practically have to be
einstein to understand what half the ingredients are what's worse is that many of these ingredients
provide little nutritional value some of the ingredients don't even do anything at all
take tauran for example monster energy drinkers think it's supposed to give you an energy boost
but the truth is it doesn't really do that at all there is evidence that shows tauren can regulate
energy levels but it doesn't offer any kind of pick-me-up it does have other benefits though
according to the canadian institute of health research tauren has been shown to prevent
heart disease however there have been numerous reports that excessive energy drink consumption
can lead to heart conditions so just because monster energy has taurine in it it doesn't
mean it's heart healthy if you're looking for a caffeine boost you're probably much better
off sipping on green tea than monster energy monster energy drinks are packed full of sugar
sugar everyone knows that soda is packed full of sugar but you might be surprised by the amount of
sugar in a can of monster energy a can of monster original has a whopping 54 grams of sugar per can
let's be honest that's absolutely ridiculous the stay puft marshmallow man's pinky probably
has less sugar according to the american heart association an average woman should consume no
more than 24 grams of added sugar per day and men should consume no more than 36 grams per day
just one can of monster energy and you're already significantly over your daily limit
more sugar more sugar luckily monster energy has the solution a can of monster energy zero
sugar has you guessed it zero grams of sugar other slightly healthier options
include monster energy zero ultra which also has zero grams of sugar and monster rehab which has
just six grams of sugar per can even a 12 ounce can of pepsi has less sugar at about 33 grams
yes believe it or not drinking a can of pepsi per day is actually healthier than drinking a
can of monster energy original some think monster energy has a satanic connection
to some monster energy tastes heavenly but others think it's worse than the devil some monster
energy haters are actually convinced that the drink has satanic connections obviously this isn't
true but some people will believe anything there's a sinister conspiracy theory floating around that
the monster energy logo actually spells out 666 in hebrew what's so significant about the number 666
well iron maiden told us it's the number of the beast the fact that monster energy slogan
is unleash the beast doesn't help matters either the slogan has led to even more
speculation by conspiracy theorists while it's true that each claw in the monster energy logo
looks like the hebrew symbol for vove aka the number six the truth is it's entirely
a coincidence monster energy didn't even design the logo it was actually designed by strategic
branding firm mclean design in what world could an innocent graphic designer be a satanist
if you believe this crazy conspiracy you probably need to watch less chilling adventures of sabrina
too many unidentifiable flavors it comes in 48 flavors we have to try them all can you believe
there are 34 different monster energy flavors on the market many people are overjoyed with the
abundance of choice but not everyone is a fan for some too many flavors is actually a bad thing some
monster energy drinkers have a hard time making a choice because there are simply too many options
do you want a tea based monster energy rehab pink lemonade or a juice based monster energy mango
loco you could easily spend hours staring at the monster energy section in walmart if you've just
finished a workout you'll have to decide if you want to monster energy muscle with added protein
or a thirst quenching monster energy tropical thunder red bull drinkers don't have this problem
it's easier to make a choice when there are less options then there's the fact that some monster
energy flavors are hard to pin down you'll need a pallet as refined as a master chef champion to
pinpoint some monster energy flavors salty sweet and oaky nuttiness what does monster energy ultra
blue taste like is it blueberry flavored or raspberry flavored no one really knows
and monster isn't going to let the cat out of the bag what about monster dragon tea it says
dragon fruit right on the can but some folks say tastes more like lychee and passion fruit
monster energy flavors are almost as confusing as starlight coke some people just prefer red bull
monster energy is popular but it's not the top dog in the energy drink business
that honor goes to red bull there's a fierce competition between monster energy and red bull
that's almost as intense as the rivalry between coke and pepsi hardcore red bull fans would never
even think of drinking monster energy if red bull is sold out they would rather go without an energy
drink for the day many monster fans feel the same way they wouldn't even consider sipping on
a strawberry apricot summer edition red bull no matter how delicious it might be the rivalry is
actually quite perplexing because there's not much difference between red bull and monster energy
they both have a similar number of calories and contain many of the same ingredients the nutrient
contents of the energy drinks are almost identical monster energy has guarana ginseng root and
l-carnitine but other than that the ingredients are identical to red bull the biggest difference
is the size red bull usually comes in 8 ounce cans while monster energy comes in
16 ounce cans red bull and monster energy fans need to put aside their differences and as the
beatles sang come together the truth is that red bull and monster energy are almost identical the
rivalry is practically pointless monster energy is too expensive so what kind of ice cream do you
want yell it out chunky monkey too expensive if you drink a can of monster energy every day you're
throwing your hard-earned money right in the trash a can of monster energy costs about three bucks
that may not seem like a lot but it adds up pretty quick it's almost as bad as drinking a venti
starbucks cappuccino every day if you're frugal you probably hate monster energy so how exactly
are you supposed to get your caffeine fix of a 7-eleven run for a monster energy drink is out of
the question well your best bet is to make coffee at home you're looking at a cost of about 16 to 18
cents when you brew coffee at home single serve coffee like k-cups and tassimo pods are a little
bit more expensive but they're still less than 50 cents per serving think of all the money you could
save by the end of the year you might even have enough money to buy a brand new ps5 ah 20 you're
not likely to get many deals on monster energy drinks either you might be able to find a buy one
get one deal at 711 from time to time but that's about it monster energy is notoriously stingy when
it comes to price discounts for starters monster doesn't offer coupons we hate to break it to you
but if you have a monster energy coupon it's a fake you'll even find a disclaimer on monster
energy's website that states monster energy does not make any online or printable coupons
you might need the detective skills of veronica mars to find it but the warning is there monster
energy had a big sponsorship dilemma dig it from this monster are you trying to get sponsored by
monster energy drink through the monster army monster energy supports athletes in extreme
sports like snowboarding surfing mountain biking skateboarding and motocross it's a great program
that really helps out up and coming athletes the monster army provides athletes with money guidance
publicity and sponsorship deals monster energy really wants to be the driving force behind the
next tony hawks of the world however not every athlete has had a good experience with the monster
army bmx superstar colton satterfield decided to part ways with the company for religious reasons
he's a devout mormon and monster energy just wasn't the right fit i'm breaking up with you
honey don't be ridiculous satterfield didn't elaborate on what exactly he found so offensive
about monster energy and simply said he was against monsters logos and marketing
whatever the reason the xgames gold medalist threw away a whole lot of dough can you imagine michael
jordan walking away from nike some fans praised satterfield for his stance while others called
his decision reckless must be 16 to buy monster energy in uk supermarkets how old are you 22.
teenage brits hate monster energy for one simple reason they can't buy it well at least not in
major supermarkets to purchase a can of monster energy in a supermarket like aldi or tesco you
have to prove you are 16 or older by showing id the under 16 supermarket van is entirely
voluntary and no grocery store or convenience store is actually required to implement the rule
many uk teens consume energy drinks frequently and some are heavy users because of the risks
associated with consuming energy drinks government officials and health advocacy groups have been
discussing an official law banning the sale of energy drinks to kids under 16 for years now
whether or not any laws instituted in the coming years remains to be seen but it might be a good
idea according to the uk government more than two-thirds of 10 to 17 year olds drink energy
drinks that may not be shocking but the fact that younger children are guzzling down monster energy
is in fact one quarter of six to nine year olds drink energy drinks in the uk according to the
government that's a very sobering statistic and actually quite scary even jamie oliver wants to
ban under six teens from being able to buy monster energy children's health is one of his passions
and he's definitely not a fan of monster energy like michelle obama he wants kids to eat a healthy
diet and a can of monster energy is definitely not part of a well-balanced meal during an interview
with good morning britain jamie oliver declared that energy drinks are a prolific problem that's
hurting kids on an episode of friday night feast on channel 4 oliver interviewed teachers
from a school that had banned energy drinks and discovered something incredible before the ban
the teachers had to adjust their teaching habits to cater to kids that were extremely lethargic or
hyper monster energy put it in your body and ask questions later it's green so it's nature because
you guessed it energy drinks after the ban students were calmer and more focused
one teacher claimed energy drinks were dangerous because children were relying on a stimulant to
get up in the morning and stay focused she told oliver she hoped supermarkets and corner shops
were made aware of how harmful energy drinks can be monster energy was once banned in india banned
for lying monster energy was forced to cease production and sales in india back in 2015 because
the ingredients didn't make any sense to indian health officials they were perplexed as to why
monster energy drinks contained both caffeine and ginseng because caffeine is a stimulant
and ginseng is used for relaxation indian health officials declared the combination
of the ingredients irrational they said the ingredients have opposing effects on the body
and declared monster energy drinks unsafe hey you stop being so unsafe the ban was short-lived
however and monster has since relaunched in india if you find yourself in india you'll be
able to find monster energy fairly easily that's good news for folks who need plenty of energy to
explore the taj mahal monster is actually gaining in popularity in india and the company recently
released a monster ultra and monster zero sugar in the country however there are still some people in
india who are wary of the iconic energy drink can you really blame them some people haven't
forgotten that monster energy was once banned many people in india skip the energy drink altogether
and opt for chai tea it tastes a lot better and it's far healthier the beastie boys are not fans
the beastie boys aren't trying to sabotage monster energy but it's safe to say they're definitely not
fans of the company so why do mike d and adrock hate monster energy so much well it all began when
monster energy used some beastie boys songs in a promotional video without the band's permission
monster employees thought they had permission to use the songs but it turns out it was all a case
of ill communication i can hear you can you hear me it all started when a monster energy employee
sent dj ztrip a beastie boys mega mix that was recorded at a monster festival the mix included
snippets of sabotage so what you want make some noise and looking down the barrel of a gun
dj ztrip was impressed and responded dope but it turns out it wasn't dope at all the monster
employee assumed they could post the promo video to monster's website but that wasn't
what dj ztrip meant he replied dope simply because he liked the video this led to the
beastie boys suing monster energy for a staggering 1.7 million dollars they won but they wanted more
money to cover legal fees so they sued again the year after for an additional 2.4 million dollars
monster and the beastie boys eventually settled for an undisclosed amount looking
