US Red Bull in Vancouver?

[Holidazed]

so whats the deal?

i've seen the blue cans of red bull WITH Taurine in them in gas stations all over vancouver this weekend. i thoguth they were allowed here?

anyoe have the scoop on why they are allowed now and for how long?

[jaydream]

ive seen them and drank them too
i want to know too!

whats the deal??
come on red balls out there!

[Niko]

Yep, I've bought a couple cans. Seems to be legal and prevalent now.

[decypher]

i think they just dont have as much caffeine or something in them?
red bull has nothing on sparks though..
6% alc. tastes like orange pop, and one of them gets u jacked! i never felt like that even after drinking like 5 red bulls

[sNyx]

Taurine was the original ingredient now allowed in any drink by CND law. Being a US 'Rudbull' fan I can say they have the perfect recreate of US 'Redbull'. Average serving; 2 cans a day. HA HA HA, with vodz; five cans deep, im ready for five me.

why dive back to the "only us sale" when we have CANNED RB in cnd?

[MC Hammered]

Why? Because one can of Rockstar is the same as one can of Red Bull but packs 3 times the punch.

[sNyx]

Sorry. A single Rockstar will cost you twice/three times as much in US then a $2.50 CND Redbull.

[MC Hammered]

Rockstar is $1.19US a can.

US exchange rate at it's worst these days is 1.4 so $1.67 a can. But you have to factor in gas which would make it about the same price as a can of Red Bull here.

Dude, I walk two blocks and spend $5, I have two cans of Redbull to start my night. I could spend $30 on gas, spend $5 on two cans of Rockstar.. drive home to start my night three times harder but three times as much.

Granted, Rockstar is a triple RB in a tally can. It's a drink you stock up on when accessible. Now that canned RB is in the CND.. its' only a positive. Costco here I come!

Energy drinks are lame unless you use them for a mixer.
Energy drinks dont work by themselves anyways, unless your a kid.

One redbull + one coffee first thing in the morning... zoooooooom - even if you're a severe caffeine addict such as myself.
