Tycker absolut inte att det behöver finnas någon åldersgräns på energidrycker. Visst blir man stirrig utav att dricka dem i tid och otid. Vad jag kan se har det inte lett till några dödsfall i Sverige än. Däremot har det hänt en eller två i Danmark. Men dessa barn drack Red Bull stup i ett. En varningstext på burkarna kanske räcker?

Jaså du? Inga dödsfall i Sverige?
