Yup, should have had an included warning ("X is the recommended safe daily amount of caffeine"), then again that's expecting a corporation to actually care about people which they do not (or expect to be punished when they harm them via negligence).

Let's be honest, it would just be like the fine print that says "drink responsibly" pasted on Everclear or some other 90% alcoholic spirit.

At least alcohol you can taste and if it's strong as hell you can feel. Someone attempting to just down some everclear is more than likely just gonna barf most of it back right up immediately and feel fucking terrible before they can do too much harm to themselves. It feels like you're doing damage. This could sneak up on people.

True, the smallest of fine print in the corner where it can still be legally defended as a "warning", this stuff should prolly get the 4Loko treatment and be removed from the public but sadly will prolly not
