    Aren’t they already prohibited? There’s already age checks at every major supermarket.

    I thought they were already banned don’t they ID when you buy energy drinks?

    I bought one energy drink once in my 30s and felt terrible afterwards, I have no idea why people buy these things. Just have a cup of tea or coffee. But yeah don’t be giving them to little kids, they’re annoying enough as it is

    Good to the big corporations don’t completely control the government yet - yes, many need a bit of protection from themselves.
