SLAP Energy: An Adventure
David Hu has sacrificed his body in the name of Bwog before. This time around, he gets closer to the new Butler vending machines than we suspect anyone else has, and actually purchases drinks with names like “SLAP” and “Full Throttle.” His harrowing account follows. David, we salute you.
As I stare at the comically oversized can of SLAP ENERGY in front of me, I have to admit, I get a little intimidated. With the whopping two servings it contains, I’m about to consume an absurd 7,652mg of something the can labels mysteriously as “‘Energy 9.0′ Blend” whose “Daily Value [has] not [been] established.” I can only wonder as to what happened to versions 1.0 through 8.0. Even though I feel like I’m getting an energy rush just by thinking about the preposterous amount of… stuff I’m about to imbibe, I dive in and taste my first gulp.
The results are… “fruity,” at best. If the bottle were labeled with some sort of berry flavor, I’d be inclined to say that it vaguely reminds me of said flavor. But instead, mysterious labels elude me again, as the only probable indications of flavor on the can are either “FROST” or “SENSATION.” None of which help me determine what this taste is that is filling my mouth.
