Mik 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 50 Cent owns 10% of Glaceau, the company that makes Vitamin Water. Coca Cola bought that company for $4.1 billion dollars. 50 Cent made $400M on this deal. Discuss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest George's Box Report post Posted May 30, 2007 So THAT'S why they're always mentioning 50 Cent on the bottles. Well, I'd quit drinking Vitamin Water after my morning jogs, but now since he sold it, no worries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Depending on the deal, he may have just gotten Coke stock instead. You'll have to stop drinking Coke products. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
In Credible 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Vitamin Water is so good I'll still drink it, even though 50 Cent is associated with it. That's saying something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest George's Box Report post Posted May 30, 2007 It's more trendy than good. I mean, grape and lemonade are pretty good, but given how one must pay out the ass for the stuff, I'm generally just as satisfied with good old-fashioned phosphorescent green Gatorade.

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 you fuckin hippie... why is the world simply not satisfied with Gatorade anymore? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricMM 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Yes I'm sure. For a while I was freaking out but I noticed a trend. Gatorade is fine. Vitamin water is fine. As long as you're drinking lemonade/limeade. Even the blue has red in it, for some reason. It's all the red 40, everything else seems fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ripper 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Why the fuck is that stuff so heavy. A bottle of Vitamin Water weighs like 50lbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 I prefer a bottle of regular-type water with one of those Kool-aid Singles in it. And for a second I thought this topic said "50 cent and Vietnam War" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 I like Sobe life water too. They have better flavors. Although grape and raspberry vitamin water is pretty incredible. I strongly prefer it to Gatorade... much lighter. (the drink - not the bottle) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
In Credible 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Yeah I actually like it over gatorade, because it's not as sugary, so you can drink more at a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2007 On the other hand, Formula 50 flavored Vitamin Water (modified grape) is quite delicious. One of the better flavors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest George's Box Report post Posted May 30, 2007 Yeah, that's the flavor that inspired my original thread about Vitamin Water. It is quite good, you're right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2007 I drink Tropical Fruit flavored water by Fruit 2-O or Nestle. Both are extremely good. Fruit 2-O is vile. Just utterly vile. You should try Crystal Light Lemonade mix - I've sworn by that for two months now, and have given up all caffeinated drinks since then. Except for Vault Red Blitz. That shit is addicting.
