The last month or even longer I'm finding very little Gatorade or Powerade on the grocery shelves. I like to exercise every day and nothing satisfies me more than ice cold Gatorade Zero


why you need a gatorade zero? are you an athlete where performance matters?

And Gatorade zero is just sodium water
I defer to your vast experience on the taste of salty fluids.

Water is probably a good choice for little nancies that play video games indoors all day. But men don't just sweat plain water. And if you're outdoors, sweating your arse off, doing yardwork in the Texas summer heat, you're going to need something more than water.


no you dont. If you take in a proper diet and proper amounts of sodium you wouldnt have these problems.

drinking your calories is why you are a fatty.

There isn’t even that much sugar in normal. Gatorade. If the taste is too sweet for you that is one thing but it isn’t at some crazy unhealthy level if you aren’t drinking 2-3 a day. And even then there are way worst options

Who would have guessed that there is a shortage of rehydrating liquids during a pandemic involving fevers?

Given that, Gatorade should be easy as shite to make so I'm sure why they couldn't increase their supplies.

Probably because I buy them all up when I see them. The grocery close to me was doing the 2 /$3 deal and I just buy all the zeros they have.

Does anyone here remember or like 10-K? I was maybe like 9 or 10 yrs old when they discontinued it, but I recall that I liked it

It’s because the resin used to make the caps comes from overseas, can’t get it. It will last at least into early next year.

yea only 34g per 20 oz, almost the same as a 12 oz coke and essentially same amount of calories as a coke.

yea it is that bad.

if you are not an athlete who needs to replinish electrolyte immediately then you do not need to be drinking them.

this is perfect example why the average US citizen is so fat.
