10 Boxes of Expired Gatorade

[Burnt Lasagna]

Alright, so I was helping my brother and my sister-in-law move out of their apartment a couple of months ago and wile I was there I ended up with 10 large boxes of Gatorade! My sister-in-law works for a company that has a sponsorship with Gatorade, hence why they had so much to throw away.

I run almost everyday, so this mass of rainbow fuel was much obliged! Now lets fast forward to present day and I'm almost half way through everything and I open a new box of Gatorade only to find this weird white sludge at the bottom of the bottle. I check the back of the bottle and find out it was produced in 2010 and expired in February of this year! I checked the shipping date on all the other boxes and they all show 2010.

I'm a little skeptical on whether this is safe to drink. I know I've already consumed a majority of the crap by now, but none of those other boxes had this white sludge at the bottom. 

Is there any expired liquid experts here? If it makes a difference the white junk goes away after shaking it

[esteban]

Hany, insistent, and with an air of authority, declares, "Respect the pouch. Crave the wave. Avoid the sludge."

THAT IS ALL.

[Keranu]

I know I've had my fair share of experied products growing up that my pops would buy at discount and I'm still alive in mostly one piece . The white sludge doesn't sound good, should probably avoid drinking any with that in it. :S

[Arkhan Asylum]

It's not expired.  Food just has those for laws, and crap. 

Its fucking salt water with sugar and shit in it.

The white sludge is likely just sugar that settled funny due to temperature changes, like KoolAid that was stirred by a gimp-armed 5 year old.

It's sealed, so I doubt it's moldy.

Shake one up, and chug it down.


If it's toxic, you'll just sweat it out anyways like the commercial, so who cares!

[tggodfrey]

Whats the worst than can happen?  Go for it.

[FiftyQuid]

Like Arkhan said, there is no expiry on the stuff.  That date is just for government bullshit reasons and has to be on there.  They also put it on there as a "Best Before" date, not an expiration date so chumps will see the date, toss the stuff and buy new product.  It's the circle of life consumerism.

Shake it, and drink it.  It's fine.

[RegalSin]

Gatoraid has stuff that is found in the bellys of some sorta animals. Elderly people drink the damn stuff, as a lesser Koolade, but seriously, 2010? If it was 1990's Gataraid I would chuck it down, but my policy on anything after 20XX is pointless, I stick to that policy.

[Burnt Lasagna]

I was thinking something similar.
I'll give one a try later today. Hopefully I wont have to commit mass genocide on this box of Gatorade just over a little white gunk.

[JoshTurboTrollX]

shake it.

drink it.

win.

[PCEngineHell]

Gatorade bottles are shaped like fat cocks. Every time you put one to your lips, your puckering up for salty Kool Aid cock juice. Now you know what the white sludge really is at the bottom of the bottle.

[BigusSchmuck]

If it had dairy products in it I would be worried. Otherwise drink up! The worst thing could happen is that you could get bowel issues and even then that's remote.

[SignOfZeta]

Throw it away and drink water.

Yes, "like from a toilet", water.

[Burnt Lasagna]

Throw it away and drink water.

The water for da fishes$
Anyways, I drank one and it's perfectly fine after giving it a good shake and tasted perfectly okay. 
I guess the morale of the story is that a drink with white sludge at the bottom = fit for drinking.

[roflmao]

Throw it away and drink water.

This.

[Burnt Lasagna]

Throw it away and drink water.

This. 

I'm not racist so I drink both.

[TheClash603]

My friend's dad worked at a Gatorade bottling plant and apparently the smell at the plant was so wretched that it would often make him sick.  The family would immediately make him take his clothes off when he got home and throw them in the basement.  He would say that I should never drink Gatorade because it is essentially garbage.

Anyway, I still drink Gatorade, but figured I would share the tale.

[kazekirifx]

Why the hell wouldn't you drink it? It's just Gatorade that expired half a year ago. No biggie.

[soop]

Far be it for me to tell you what to drink, but that sounds like an awful lot of Gatorade.  I think the stuff tastes nice, but I'm no athelete, and I rarely drink it (or soda).

I'm into flavoured water right now.  It still has a lot of sugar, but way less than coke.

[GohanX]

Arkhan is right. There really isn't anything in Gatorade that would decompose and make you sick. The only issue is that if it sits long enough the ingredients would start to separate and it may taste funny.

[Arkhan Asylum]

Most gatorades already taste funny, so no loss there.


I like the Orange and the Lemon Lime


the rest taste retarded.

Sometimes the Melon and Fruit Punch are ok

and the Strawberry Kiwi didn't suck too bad,

but I'd rather just drink Hi C if I want juice.   Ecto Cooler or GTFO

[PunkCryborg]

I wouldnt recommend drinking gatorade even if it was fresh

[GohanX]

I like the Orange and the Lemon Lime

Word. I don't know why, but the Lemon Lime Gatorade is the most refreshing thing ever after a long day of working on the car.

[VestCunt]

Gatorade tastes good and I drink it a couple times a year, but it's essentially just water and garbage: artificial colors that probably cause cancer and a bunch of sugar (or worse - sucralose or aspartame). And the plastic bottle no doubt leeches into the drink after a while and makes your dick small.

Apparently Gatorade used to come in glass bottles before I was born.

I guess they gave my mom orange gatorade in the hospital when she was blasting my sister out, and it made her puke everywhere.

She still hasn't had gatorade ever since, lol.

[PCEngineHell]

Yeah, long ago before it came in giant fat cock bottles.

Back when they had glass bottles, there was Lemon Ice flavored Gatorade which was awesome.  Somehow the flavor didn't make the transition over to plastic, just to piss me off!

Even worse, the very last bottle of Lemon Ice I ever bought, I was riding my bike while holding the open bottle.  A bird then proceeded to shit directly on my hand and into the bottle, a one in a million shot.  To this day I regret not being able to drink the last bottle of Lemon Ice Gatorade I ever bought.

[kazekirifx]

I miss glass bottles. Everything tastes better from a glass bottle. Why do you think they still put beer in them?

[PunkCryborg]

When I was visiting friends in Bulgaria we got Zagorka beer that came in a plastic 2 liter bottle for a train ride, it was so incredibly disgusting. I still remember the taste....

[CPTRAVE]

Yeah white sludge I would stay away from that, besides Gatorade has to much salt, if you drink it on a daily basis it can cause High blood pressure even if you work out. I take P90x recovey drink its good. 

[munchiaz]

a little off topic. But is it true that if aspartame (diet pop) sits out to long and gets warm, it turns into embalming fluid ? Also, i miss Sobe in glass containers. Now i don't even drink it anymore

I fucking hate aspartame.  Doesn't taste remotely like sugar, and I'm pretty sure it gives me a headache.  I haven't had diet soda in about 20 years.  I prefer thirsty.

[PunkCryborg]

I can taste that sweetener they use in diet soda in anything. So gross

[grimm]

You could just contact gatorade directly and ask them.

[RoyVegas]

Is it really worth taking the chance?  It's not like its a bottle of fine wine, they're $1 bottles of a bland sports drink.  I'd trash them...

[VestCunt]

I don't know. I believe the information that says it degrades into formaldehyde above 86 degrees Fahrenheit. The one thing everyone agrees on is that aspartame doesn't work for baking, so it definitely degrades into something.

[esteban]

EveryNo one wants to know...

GATORADE: I injest my fair share of gross/nasty/artificial stuff, but I don't like Gatorade. It is a deadly brew of fluorescent nasty masquerading as something athletes should use. I HATE CHARADES LIKE THIS. If it was simply marketed as fluorescent nasty, with no pseudo-health benefits, then I'd have nothing to complain about. I despise Gatorade for its marketing.

ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS: When I was younger, I despised them. Sweet-N-Low (SACCHARINE) was the popular one. I remember when NutraSweet (aspartame) became the GOLDEN CHILD and poor saccharine was given second-class--no, THIRD-class--status in the pantheon of sweeteners. THANKFULLY I WAS STILL ABLE TO GET MY SACCHARINE at the diner (COFFEE). IT'S TRUE, I LIKE MY COFFEE BLACK OR WITH A VERY LIGHT DUSTING OF SACCHARINE. The chemical aftertaste of Sweet-N-Low is something I SEEK now. Thankfully, I must not be the only one, because most diners I frequent offer SACCHARINE, ASPARTAME, and the new-fangled stuff (Splenda?). Oh, I love Diet Coke for it's aspartame taste. I despise the taste of cane-sugar or corn-syrup Coke. I know that's twisted. I stopped trying to rationalize it. It is twisted.

Sadly, I don't meet many people who actually seek the unnatural taste of aspartame and saccharine...

I'm not joking.

REALLY: Yes, really. I have already accepted the fact that all of these sweeteners, injested over a lifetime, could create some horrific end for me. I ACCEPT THIS FATE. Really.

UPDATE: My morning coffee. One packet of Sweet-N-Low is spread over several cups.

[soop]

huh, I can't say that I find it that strange Esteban, it would just be strange for me.  Hell, I'm one of the only people I know that likes root beer.  As for soda, our stuff is made with sugar, so I don't have to worry about corn syrup.

The last thing I'll say for isotonic drinks, is they REALLY do work for rehydrating you fast.  I had the shits bad last year, and I was drinking Lucozade sport (a similar sports drink) and it really worked.

[PunkCryborg]

I can taste that artificial sweetener in anything...... i've almost given up any sweeteners all together and when you go a long time without even high fructose corn syrup you become even more sensitive to them. You then syart to taste sweeteners in food that shouldnt have them if you made them from scratch

Yeah, if you are dehydrated, I can see a purpose. Not that I understand the physiology/chemistry completely. Not that I even looked it up. But, I have faith that it is legitimate. In Southern California, a lot of (non-chain) markets offer cane sugar sodas (from Mexico). It's fun to compare the differences. It is distinctive, certainly.

Absolutely. I think a lot of folks feel this way about artificial flavors, too. They can identify (and be nauseated) by an overabundance of artificial flavors/sweeteners.

Anyway, I am two extremes: I love super-healthy and super-trashy food.

[SignOfZeta]

I'm hella addicted to aspartame and caffeine. If I don't get nearly a 2 liter a day I'm totally fucked. I've tried going without caffeine and...it's not pretty. Not pretty at all.

I gave up sugar soda for diet in the 90s when I realize that in reality they both taste like shit, it's just a matter of what you are used to and that I'd rather subject myself to aspartame's theoretical side effects than the known side effect of real sugars: you become a diabetic 400 lb fat ass. There is no need to look under rocks for the side effects of drinking 2L of non-diet soda every day, just go into a Wal Mart and try to hold your breath until you find someone not incredibly fat.

And yeah, the Gatorade idea is disingenuous at best. Water is better in every way. Sure, Gatorade replaces electrolytes (what plants crave) but if your diet was half way under control you wouldn't need such things to be delivered in a drinkable form.  It's basically salty watered down Faygo.

I hear you on the diet vs. sugar soda! If I can't get caffeine via coffee (which is my lifeblood), then I need to get it from Diet Coke.

I'm sipping some cold coffee right now, as I type this. Really.

I'm basically sleep-deprived (trying to do too much every day), but I'm in such denial about how much sleep I need (I prop myself up with caffeine).

Oh, I love getting caffeine from tea as well.

I'm not proud, but I'm happy (I think ).

[soop]

You certainly do seem happy

[SignOfZeta]

Scientifically speaking, when you you analyze the data completely, you'll see that Diet Coke is for girls. Diet Pepsi is where its at.

I don't dispute the scientific findings. But...

I will NEVER DEPRIVE MY FEMININE SIDE THE DIET COKE IT CRAVES.

Never.
