I think I have a problem

I swear, I can quit whenever I want.

Don't ask me why, but I love these drinks. I go for the sugar free drinks because, well, they're sugar free. I wouldn't want my teeth to fall out. I don't even really drink them for the supposed energy they provide. I just like the taste.

These energy drinks are way over priced. They range anywhere from $2.19 +crv to $2.59+crv. That's frackin expensive! I guess we all need our vices. It's what makes us human - right?

While I'm on the topic of energy drinks I'll rate them.

• Redbull - the originator of the energy drink. These taste great! The regular (with sugar) is the one of the best, if not the best, tasting energy drink on the market. There sugar-free drink takes a while to get used, as do most sugar-free drinks, but once you do it's really good. Where Redbull falls down is in value. You get half as much drink for the same price as most other energy drinks on the market. I would prefer to drink Redbull sugar-free, but I'm American; I want MORE for my money- dang nabbit!
  
• Monster - I surprised to find out Monster has the second biggest market share for energy drinks. I'm not a fan of their regular drink. There sugar-free, or low-carb drink as they market it, is just okay. It takes longer to adjust to the taste than others. It tastes a lot sweeter than others, and at times has almost a vitamin-like taste.
  
• Rockstar - Third largest energy drink (in the US) and the most conservative. Did you know that Rockstar was founded, and is ran, by the son of conservative talk show host Michael Savage? I guess you do learn something new every day. Anyways, this is my drug...I mean drink of choice. I really enjoy the taste of the sugar-free drink. However, I still like Redbull sugar-free better. I haven't had the courage, yet, to try the 24oz. drink. That's a whole lot of drink.
• Full Throttle - This is Coca-Cola Co.'s venture into the energy drink market. The regular drink is my second favorite, regular Redbull being the first. The sugar-free drink is pretty crappy. It's too watered down. The only good thing is you can usually find really good deals on Full-Throttle because it's a Coca-Cola product. So they price pretty aggressively to gain market share - I assume.
  

I know in a few years they're going to come out with a study stating that drinking energy drinks will cause you to grow a third nipple, or something like that, but for now they are my guilty pleasure. Hey, at least I'm drinking sugar-free. I guess that's like saying I only smoke lights ;)
