Four Loko, Oh No!!

Quote:

It was too good to be true. We warned you last weekend that Four Loko, the $3 canned, caffeinated beverage that equals something like six beers and a cup of coffee, was in danger of being banned by the state of New York. Just yesterday we had some indication that Senator Chuck Schumer was not kidding around and was prepared to go around FDA approval for the drink in order to make sure no one in New York is having any fun. Today, it's looking like a done deal: Four Loko will not be delivered to New York retailers after December 10.
So what is everyone going to put on their facebook status now?

I may buy a whole lot of it and sell it on ebay later.

Good thing we're all stocked up. Oh wait, we don't live in NY :moon:

also... eBay doesn't allow the sale of alcoholic beverages on its U.S. website, except for pre-approved sales of wine.

Same reason I dont like Jager Bombs or Vodka & Redbull :rofl:. I also don't like the fact of cheap drink that looks like an Arizona Iced Tea that gets you drunk so fast. The fact that its marketed to America's youth.

1 Can = 4 beers. Just because it gets you drunk quicker doesn't mean you should ban it--under that logic, liquor stores should sell nothing other than beer.

Know your limits. That's all it boils down to.

If you've never had one before, it will surely put you well beyond what you think your limit is. Thats why I think this drink is so dangerous. Not mention the amount of caffeine in the drink mixted with alcohol, Its a heart attack in a can. Its seems that people are drinking them because its the new cool thing to do unitl they wake up in the hospital the next day.
