They're about as strong as coffee. But because it's lemonade people seem to be drinking more. Lemonade is probably more drinkable than coffee and I think it being called lemonade is causing problems because nobody associates lemonade with having to limit it because it contains a drug like coffee does. They should've just called it lemon charger or something instead of lemonade. Plus you get free refills, I'm not sure if Panera gives free refills on coffee.

Panera Bread's large sized "Charged Lemonade" contains 390mg per serving, just under the 400mg daily maximum recommended by several healthcare NGOs. To put it in perspective, a Monster energy drink has 200 mg, a 12oz cup of coffee has about 130mg, and those "Bang" brand energy drinks and their copycats like "Reign" have 300mg, but those companies make it abundantly clear on the packaging that they are intended to be drank in two servings.
Panera Bread was putting an unreasonably high amount of caffeine in an otherwise innocuous beverage, though to call that decision dangerously irresponsible may be an understatement. The public attention generated by mass media reporting the overdose fatalities could be seen as an intentional viral marketing strategy aimed at thrill-seeking caffeine junkies who would have otherwise not considered going to Panera Bread for their >400mg/day fix. If found guilty, this could amount to criminal negligence or even manslaughter.

Most people don't know how much that is. They don't know how much a gram of sugar is or anything like that. The maximum amount of caffeine recommended for you to consume in an entire day in a single drink might be excessive. People probably don't know that 400mg is the maximum recommended per day.

I've recently watched some schizo ramble about Satanists.
He argued Satanists believe it's morally acceptable to sell apples filled with cyanide to children, if they include "poison" somewhere on the label.
They would then refuse to acknowledge bearing moral responsibility when the children kill themselves (or others).
After all - the kids did not read the label and asses the risk correctly, therefore the seller's consciousness is clean.

I came to realization he was onto something.

I went and tried the charged lemonade after hearing that it killed people. I'm pretty tolerant of caffeine but I could see the danger in having it out for free refills.

Added potassium is regulated for this exact reason tho. That's why your multivitamin has 9001% of vitamin b12 but so little potassium. The average American has plenty of b12 as it is, but unless you're eating bananas every day there's a high probability your K is low. Despite this, because of the adverse effects of having too much potassium, the FDA decided to put a cap on how much is allowed to be sold per dose/serving in supplements, which is 100mg. Now you, yes (you) have no idea how much 100mg of potassium is. You have no frame of reference because before you googled how much potassium you need per day and checked your vitamin bottle you didn't even think about potassium. Never crossed your mind until something came up in life. 100mg is the limit in supplements but you need 4700mg per day. Now imagine you bought a drink with 4680mg of potassium. It's labeled, but you don't have a reference for how much that is. You ate a banana earlier, now you're over. Do this repeatedly and watch your insides die. Because someone wanted to drug you up for profit. That's what Panera did here. They drugged up their customers to dangerous levels for a buck.

The lemonade has 13mg of caffeine/oz. Canned drinks have different ranges, but the highest concentration that is widely available is 300mg/16oz which is 18.75mg/oz. 200mg/12oz is also a common one, which is 16.6mg/oz. The lemonade is relatively weak in caffeine (as is Red Bull).

She knew she had the heart condition. At least, that's the version of the story I heard. She normally looks out of caffeine, but missed it this one time, and it killed her.

I don't think this is lawsuit worthy. But it should be used as an example for how to make potentially dangerous doses of a drug more visible on packaging. The mention of caffeine is always about 3x smaller than the fancy names of the drink. It's like MANGO BLAST (ʷᶦᵗʰ ᶜᵃᶠᶠᵉᶦnᵉ).

When you look at it from a distance, you can't really make out the small text. Not until you get close. But the thing about marketing, is that they're trying to appeal to you from a distance. That's why the name of the drink is in such a large font. So you see it from across the room. You make your decision whether or not Mango Blast is a drink you want to try, before you get close and see the small text about caffeine.

It's just a human psychology thing to be aware of, and hopefully fix in the future by making the caffeine text, equally as loud as the name of the drink.

Each Monster is 16oz, so less than 2. Also you have to consider the free refill dynamic. Any time a drink has free refills people will go out of their way to get at least 1 but often more refills in order to get their money's worth.

I'm sure she was aware there was some caffeine in it, because it's called CHARGED Lemonade, but she wasn't aware of HOW MUCH caffeine was in it. They should have had some very obvious display that explained it was FIVE COFFEE CUPS worth of caffeine in ONE serving. And like I said above, DON'T offer free refills on a drink that will give you DOUBLE the maximum safe daily dose of caffeine in two servings because that's downright irresponsible. Panera absolutely deserves to be sued for negligence.

I find it doubtful that she wasn't aware of the amount of caffeine, because anyone with those kinds of conditions will know the numbers. Diabetics will know how much sugar they can flirt with before it becomes a problem. Gym bros know how much calories they can handle before they're gaining/losing. It's just one of those things where people in the life will know more about it than the average person.

In my experience, people with caffeine sensitivities only know things like "I can drink a cup or two of coffee in a day but no more than that" or "I can handle a can of pop but not an energy drink" and very general things like that. I've never heard a person with a caffeine sensitivity quote the milligrams of caffeine they can have. Most people just don't know caffeine in that way, but they would take notice if the sign said "5 coffee cups of caffeine per serving" or "3 energy drinks per serving" or something like that. You have to give people a familiar comparison.

>“I guarantee if Sarah had known how much caffeine this was, she never would have touched it with a 10-foot pole.”
This tells me she did drink caffeine, but she limited her intake, and probably assumed a couple cups of caffeinated lemonade wouldn't give her double the daily maximum of caffeine for non-sensitive people (let alone sensitive people with heart conditions).
>The Charged Lemonade was “offered side-by-side with all of Panera’s non-caffeinated and/or less caffeinated drinks” and was advertised as a “plant-based and clean” beverage that contained as much caffeine as the restaurant’s dark roast coffee, according to photos of both the menu and beverage dispensers in the store, which were included in the wrongful death lawsuit.
And here again, their comparisons are fucking stupid. "As much caffeine as the restaurant's dark roast coffee." Yeah, okay, but the SERVING SIZE is the same as like FOUR of those coffees AND there are free refills to boot. An honest comparison would explain how many coffees it is PER DRINK SIZE, because they KNOW people will drink it in one sitting and they KNOW people will take advantage of the free refills. Panera was negligent as hell and no one should be defending this.

You can get free coffee refills at many diners, do you just go and overdose on caffeine there?

>> No.20272141

>>20272080
Overdose is a loaded term, especially when we're already talking about people with sensitivities. But if we assume that someone will get 1 refill of any drink that offers free refills in order to feel they got their money's worth, the coffee will give you 140 to 200mg of caffeine assuming it's black, which is less than half the recommended daily maximum for a healthy person. Under the same circumstance, the charged lemonade will give you 780mg of caffeine, which is NEARLY DOUBLE the recommended daily maximum for a healthy person.

When the sign says "same amount of caffeine as dark roast coffee" people won't think in per ounce terms, they will think in per serving terms. They'll think, "Oh, this (30oz) lemonade has the same amount of caffeine as that (10oz) coffee, I could have 2 of those and be fine." Human psychology needs to be taken into account with these things, we're not computers or calculators, we don't automatically break things down into perfect unit-to-unit comparisons.

Oh, but the sign says it has 390mg of caffeine, what about that? It doesn't matter, the average person has no fucking clue how much caffeine is 390mg, nor are they aware of the daily recommended maximums in milligrams. Ever notice when people compare caffeine content between drinks they just say things like "as much as X cups of coffee" or "as much as X cans of pop" or "as much as X energy drinks." That's because people don't know the numbers, they just know how each of those drinks makes them feel and they draw comparisons out from there. Experiential comparison is the natural mode of operation for humans, again we're not computers. We CAN crunch numbers and do complex math when we set our minds to it, but in day-to-day life we're not thinking about things is such raw terms.

It's not retarded or irrelevant at all. The caffeine content in ONE 30oz charged lemonade is equivalent to 2.5 cans of Monster DESPITE being only the total volume of 2 Monsters, which means it's even more concentrated. Regardless, "2.5 Monsters" or "5 cups of coffee" per 30oz serving are much more relatable and understandable measurements than "390mg of caffeine." The numbers and units make it sound all precise and informative, but it means nothing if a person has no actual concept of what 390mg of caffeine actually amounts to in terms of drinks they're familiar with.

It's a better comparison because people have a general idea how coffee makes them feel on average and most people can understand that drinking 5 cups of coffee in a single sitting would be a large amount of caffeine. Panera already included a comparison to their dark roast coffee, but they didn't properly inform of the serving size difference to make it clear that the 30oz lemonade isn't the same amount of caffeine as a single 8oz cup of dark roast coffee but instead the equivalent of nearly 4 cups of their dark roast coffee. Again, people aren't computers, we don't think in raw data and numbers, we think in comparisons of experience.

The concentration of caffeine has nothing to do with why people died, it's because they had medical conditions and likely didn't understand there was caffeine in the drinks at all, or that caffeine was potentially fatal to them due to their conditions.

>DRINKING MORE THAN ONE 30OZ SERVING IN ONE DAY MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH

Because, again, PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW THE FUCK MUCH 390MG OF CAFFEINE ACTUALLY IS OR THAT IT'S LITERALLY A DANGEROUS AMOUNT TO CONSUME. The point is that there needs to be SOMETHING to indicate that this drink has a DANGEROUS FUCKTON of caffeine in it, this is not some trivial thing that can just be glossed over with "they should have known."

I hate that line of thinking, pissed me off in college when the alcohol safety courses or whatever would always relate standard drinks back to "a bottle of beer" or "a glass of wine" or just "a shot". It almost feels like purposefully making people less informed about dosage and concentration. No, a bottle of light beer is not the same as a shot of Everclear, ABV is important to being safe if you're willfully getting inebriated.

This is always a stupid argument because the amount it takes for a substance to directly poison you to death through toxicity has nothing to do with how much it takes for the other effects of that substance to harm you. There is an established guideline in current medical practice that says 400mg per day is the maximum safe dose of caffeine for the average person with no health conditions. That doesn't mean 401mg of caffeine will make you drop dead, but it does mean that anything above 400mg could potentially cause injury even to a healthy person, let alone someone with health problems.
>Drinks 600mg of caffeine a day to no ill effect
Congratulations, you're able to consume an unsafe amount of caffeine with no injury. Your anecdote doesn't change the fact that Panera sliding 10mg under the daily safety limit per serving without making it clear that's what they were doing is irresponsible and negligent.

What really matters is not the breakpoint, but the slope of complication risk for a given ingress over a given time (with an assumed egress rate).
The breakpoint would have been chosen based on that data, by selecting an arbitrary point where someone deemed the risk was too great to be considered "safe". It's silly to argue the holiness of the breakpoint without at least understanding the rate that the body processes it.

I'm saying that butting up so close to the safety guideline without going over demonstrates Panera knew exactly what they were doing. They did the bare minimum to avoid liability with no regard to the realistic safety of their customers. It's irresponsible and negligent.

>It literally doesn't.
By 10mg. "I'm not touching you!!!"

>>"Well numbers don't matter because I'm too stupid, it FEELS like it has the maximum amount!"
It's 10mg under the safe limit AND they offer free refills, which makes it seem safe to get refills. People drank them, got refills, and died. Despite this, corporate cocksuckers like you scream about personal responsibility with Panera's thick jizz streaming out of your mouth all the while.

It's not a law, and we're not talking about it being illegal or not. We're talking about legal liability as determined in a courtroom, and known recommendations and guidelines can be used to build a case that someone is acting with negligence even if those recommendations or guidelines aren't codified into law. Do you understand that we're talking about a court case and opinions on what the decision of that court case should be?

Again, I argue that skirting 10mg under the 400mg marker that is so commonly cited by the FDA and medical institutions shows a clear intent to avoid liability by saying "No, no, we're not exceeding any recommendations or guidelines, we're 10mg under and it's the customer's fault for getting a refill!" I think they should be held accountable for this shit, their negligence in providing a dangerously-caffeinated drink without clear warnings that drinking more than one serving could be dangerous contributed to the deaths of multiple people.

I already understand what it means. You seem to have trouble grasping the subjective nature of lawsuits and how they differ from codified law and how general guidance, advice, and recommendations from authoritative entities can contribute to something like deciding if someone is acting unsafely or otherwise with negligence. Kind of like how it's not strictly illegal to leave a baby in a car but if you do and it dies you'll likely be found criminally negligent in court because it's generally understood that leaving a baby in a car is dangerous and plenty of resources saying as much can be cited.

You're already trying to pivot from "400mg is dangerous" to "well maybe 400mg isn't EXACTLY dangerous, it's subjective..." so you know exactly what you're doing.

Women don't know this and are guzzling caffeine and eating chocolate every day, while making the next generation dumber or non existent.

It's a serious problem. Somehow this drug has slipped through the cracks and become perfectly socially acceptable. People don't even understand how harmful it can be and they can't stop. Knowing what I know about the world, I can't believe this hasn't been pushed for nefarious reasons.

Nah, caffeine causes issues. It's why pretty much any woman with a GP, or parents, friends, will be told to wean themselves off coffee as quickly as possible when they become pregnant. It's not a contraceptive per se (conception is just as likely with or without caffeine), moreso a potential abortifacient, and something that increases the risk of birth defects and can slow fetal development and growth.

Caffeine's a poison in the same way that ethanol and nicotine are. Small doses and a lack of chronic abuse probably won't shorten your life beyond the few years at the end that you probably don't want to live anyway, but a shit-tonne will kill you, and in doses that would be on the large-but-not-fatal end for humans, all three are used as pesticides.
