The flavor name "lizard fuel" always amused me for some reason.

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Haha Their branding was somehow so effective.

I definitely had that lizard energy when I would drink those as a teen sitting around my room g*ming for endless hours without movement. I would drink the carrot one, I thought it would help balance the damage I was causing to my eyes from so much screentime, only found out years later that was British propaganda. My eyesight sucks now.
