I ran out of my 50 cent per gallon spring water from Market Basket and was parched so I ran up to Rochdale and bought a couple if these zero calorie Powerades.
First off whatever the fuck is in there sure as hell isn’t as good as drinking pure old water and whatever smoke and mirror bullshit they pulled off to claim it’s zero calorie you can be sure as shit is loaded up with some other bad ass not naturally occurring ingredients to make it zerocalorie
Shoulda just grabbed a gallon of water to chug, but no. Had to go off and buy the crap.
Lesson learned.
Good Morning Gloucester 
It IS crap but the bottles are really great. I buy a couple every few weeks and pour the crap out but save the bottles to fill with filtered water and keep in the freezer. They are the nicest, most sturdy bottles–even if they are filled with crap.

Why are you buying water at all, when Glosta water right out of the tap is perfectly fine? The bottled water business is a huge scam put over on us all by the big bottlers, particularly Coca Cola and Pepsi Cola who own must of the bottled water business and encourage scare stories about tap water. And the bottles aren;’t returnable so are a big source of litter. Use your money for something you need.

Ah, when a label states ‘Zero Calories’ it does not mean in absence of calories. The FDA allows any food product under 5 calories to be labeled as calorie free or as zero calories.
See 21CFR101.60
(i) The food contains less than 5 calories per reference amount customarily consumed and per labeled serving.
Just saying.

Bahahahaha! THANK YOU for putting that out there. As a personal trainer, you have no idea how many times I want to say those exact words when clients bring that shit into my studio. Toning that message down to be acceptable for NC folk just doesn’t get the point across.
