"They are not incredibly dangerous, except for when they are incredibly dangerous"
By that logic, peanuts are also "incredibly dangerous".
Note: I'm not promoting or condoning the consumption of energy drinks, they are generally unhealthy. But calling them "incredibly dangerous" because they can evoke such a reaction in a small subset of the population is bullshit.
And products are often labeled, not if they CONTAIN nuts, but even if they were made somewhere that also produces peanuts and there's a slight chance of cross contamination.
This is done because of the liability. It should be easy enough to prove the Panera has liability here in the same way.
It clearly states the caffeine content on the placard in front of the drink though, and it's called charged lemonade. While that wouldn't necessarily imply it has caffeine, that's at least enough to tell me it's almost certainly not plain lemonade though and I should read what's in it.
And vitamin water surely is loaded with vitamins, right?
While that wouldn't necessarily imply it has vitamins, that's at least enough to tell me it's almost certainly not plain water though and I should read what's in it.
Um...they do have vitamins soo..
