I remember seeing info about Gatorade containing fetal tissue as a natural flavoring. I have been researching Roar and Body Armor to see if they are ok and cannot find a real ingredient breakdown. Can anyone help? Thanks!

I’ve said for years that natural flavoring is code for “you don’t want to know.” I didn’t realize until 2021 just how true that was.
yep
please don't destroy my natural flavored sparkling water ....I've never drank alcohol, coffee, tea. You gonna make me go to water only. Let me remain in my bubble world.
Just drink La Croix
my personal favorite is hint of hint of lime
haha, I'll have to try it
Sorry! :)
I love my flavored, sparkling water!
How does one 'discover' that certain fetal cells improve the taste of something?
Senomyx
Soylent Green...there is a reason why cannibals can't stop once they taste human flesh...Probably why the adrenochrome is so prized by the sick fucks
I heard recently that blue raspberry flavoring came from beaver anal glands? Please don't let that be true! But does anyone know for sure?
mmmm...tasty beaver anal glands!
I heard they use that for imitation vanilla too. I think its true
WHAT!?! Please tell me you can't be serious! ?
I believe this is slightly inaccurate.
Senomyx genetically modified HEK 293 cells (which were derived from fetal kidney cells obtained back in the 1970s) and they basically used these modified cells to create an artificial tongue, or as they describe it, "a proprietary taste receptor-based assay system.”
So, Pepsi and other companies are not putting fetal cells into soda, but Senomyx was testing different formulas (they would adjust sodium and/or sweetener levels in a product and use their artificial tongue to see if any major differences were detected, etc.)
I still boycott Senomyx products too, but because I'm against the idea of using fetal cells for testing. They're not actually putting the cells in the products.
yep - Gatorade for one
Senomyx
Squeeze a lime into some plain seltzer water, its refreshing as hell and you get some Vit C
