Four companies – Charge Beverages Corp., New Century Brewing Co., Phusion Projects and United Brand Company – got letters of warning for “unsafe food additive” found in one or more of their alcoholic drinks. Further action, including “seizure of their products,” is possible, the warning said. [/u/

“It’s unfathomable for them to just ban things,” she said. “As a small independent entrepreneur, I’m totally offended. And frankly, as a U.S. citizen, I’m really shocked.”
I wonder who she voted for?

That stuff is crazy.  This just happened last week here.  Check out the Video.   The clerk got arrested too.  So sad.

DENTON, Texas - A controversial alcoholic drink may have contributed to a crash that left a 14-year-old North Texas girl dead and her young boyfriend behind bars.

Police say they found a 12-pack of beer and five cans of "Four Loko" in the crashed Chevy Trailblazer that killed Valeria Rodriguez of Arlington, Texas.

I, personally, think it's really dumb to mix energy drinks with alcohol. 

But to ban it is ridiculous.
