Monster Energy's corporate infrastructure exposed: employee training, customer stereotypes, Beast Bux rewards, and a file system API that's STILL wide open.
I have ADHD and energy drinks have been helping me focus when I don’t have access to meds. Somehow Monster is the cheapest among the select few brands that I actually like the taste of (and a lot of people shit on it because of the taste – I guess it shows how subjective it is). I’m not happy about financially supporting a corp that makes money on getting people addicted to sugar, but I can’t deny the effects the drinks have on me
Does coffee not work? It’s about $8 a month for me if I make it at home.
I do pour over in a chemex, a full pot (6 cups) lasts 3 days, and lives in the fridge, just gotta remember to make it the night before if you want it iced.
Redbull, Rockstar, and Monster all taste about the same; but IDK if the ingredients–like taurine–are the same outside the US or if that would alter the taste significantly.
I’m more surprised by the fact that people actually drink Monster at all.
My coworkers basically live off of Monster energy drinks. Those energy drinks mess with my heart too much, so I stay far away.

Coffee stinks, rather drink an energy drink than that crap.
Weirdly, it doesn’t work as well for me. I think the dopamine hit is just not that strong
I’m visiting Ohio right now. There is Monster EVERYWHERE.
Huh yeah there is less of it around now that im not in Ohio. Weird
I prefer NOS myself. It doesn’t taste like toxic chemical sludge (even if it still is toxic chemical sludge).
Sometimes I’m curious as to the taste, but it only come in half liters and I would most likely toss out most of that, so I’ve never bothered

Taurine is in red bull over here, so it should be in monster. I would probably try one had they smaller sizes.
