Cocaine New Name: Censored

You’ve got to hand it to Redux Beverages. They sure have a sense of humor.

After the comprehensive banning of the Cocaine Energy Drink - they’ve now renamed it “Censored”. All the publicity will ensure them many sales in the future - however the seizing of crates of the drink must have been a costly affair for the small beverage company.

During this debacle one particular drink kept coming to mind. A drink that is consumed all over the world. A drink that is also named after a street drug. That drink is referred to as “Coke”.

To quote from the Oxford English Dictionary:

coke2

noun informal term for COCAINE.

Or perhaps we can refer to it by it’s official name coca-cola. And what does coca mean?

coca

/kok/

noun a tropical American shrub grown for its leaves, which are the source of cocaine.

The wonders of corporate hypocrisy.

I was thinking the same thing about Coke. Also, what about Meth Coffee and Liquid Speed?

My tolerance level would probably dwarf the caff content in Cocaine anyways. So I’m going to assume that Cocaine would be just another “Pop” for me.

I like the stuff. I found out about it about 3 weeks before the FDA crackdown. I perfer it to coffee. I don’t like the fact that it burns going down. Im about to get some NO-Explode for working out. So I will hit Cocaine on my off days. RedBull can’t hang.
