Another controversial caffeinated beverage is on the market. This time it is Meth Coffee.
These companies are glamorizing the use of methamphetamines as a marketing tactic and it's irresponsible and tasteless. On the product's Web site is a link to a commercial for the new coffee, featuring a tie-wearing business man who becomes more and more addicted as he drinks the coffee. I thought Cocaine Energy Drink was bad, but this is worse.
According to the Web site, the staff doesn't seem too worried about the reaction to this product. The Web site is filled with curse words and warnings to "minors" and "bilious baby handlers" to avoid consumption of the "substance."
As I discussed in my previous blog, people know right from wrong, but these products are sending the wrong message.
