Let me guess...they made an deal with Pat Travers to use his song "Snortin' Whiskey" for the jingle.

"An 8.4 ounce can of Cocaine contains 280 milligrams of caffeine. An average 5-ounce cup of coffee has at least 106 milligrams of caffeine, according to the U.S. Department of Nutritional Services."
Who drinks a 5oz coffee anyway? What a rubbish comparison.

Great marketing idea.
Develop a Brand name like "Cocaine"
Then let the Nanny State Thugs provide you with millions in Free Advertising.
Brilliant!

Disturbing. I don't see any harm in drinking caffeinated drinks; however, I don't agree with the name. They're right...kids are going to start drinking it and thinking they're "cool" and, pretty soon, they'll probably use cocaine and end up dying. Oh well. I think that everyone's entitled to their own opinions and as long as it's legal, then who cares, right? I don't know what I'm saying.

Never mind the name. It's the 280mg of caffeine that attracts me.

This is a good example of the weird and weak approach to journalism: report empirical data as if it were a fair representation of the market's reaction to a person/place/thing. Who are these people who were quoted? Is there an affidavit? The low level of intellect passed off as news or even opinion is startling at times.

5-ounce cup of coffee? So a 16oz cup beats this drink.
Coffee, black. Now THAT's old school pep in your step.

"None of a half-dozen students interviewed outside Brockton High School Wednesday had heard of the Cocaine drink."
But thanks to our ever-helpful media, they know about it, where to get it, and how much it costs.
OTOH, some are already calling this caffeine drink "dangerous"- on what grounds? I bet it's just a reaction to the marketing method used.
Dangerous or not, the stuff is getting free advertising directed at their market niche, through articles laced with outrage and faux disapproval.

Hmmm, naming products after illegal things?

This stuff is for amateurs. I've been taking an EC stack (24mg Ephedrine with 200mg caffeine) 3x a day, off and on for 2 years now.
I could finish two cans of this stuff and take a nap

here's a company that's going to profit from the sale of this dangerous product
Caffeine makes this a dangerous product?

Unfortunately I tried the real "cocaine" in the past. Not my thing. Who the hell wants to be so wired...even if its a whole load of caffeine.
To: BansheeBill
I didn't think a thing about this drink until I saw a Muslim "activist" on TV DEMANDING that the person stop making this drink.
Now I want it to be wildly successful.

An 8.4 ounce can of Cocaine contains 280 milligrams of caffeine. Whoohooo, I think I've found my drink!
OTOH, my mug of coffee in the morning probably has more caffeine than that.

LOL! Who on earth only drinks a 5oz cup of coffee??? Even a small coffee mug is 10 oz. And who drnks only one of those?

The West Bridgewater selectmen want to ban the product from their town. The board has sent a letter warning all liquor license holders that any use of a new 'energy' drink called 'Cocaine' will not be tolerated and any use would be deemed a violation by the board. Why, on what grounds, because they don't like the name? That won't last long.

Who cares really?
Some people will drink this to impress their friends but most will eventually move on. Nobody is going to drink something that tastes like Jolly Rancher candy and then immediately begin buying real cocaine.

Pansies all.
My standard coffee cup is 24 ounces of black coffe.
Aside from that, can't we just saw off Calfornia and float it out to sea? Maybe anchor it in the Bering Strait?
