Who thinks that Gatorade isn't as good as it used to be?

It seems like they changed the recipe of Gatorade so much that it just doesn’t taste right to me anymore. The new G1 of course is different, but so are the ones that just say G on them. I can only find the original in powder form and in the big bottles, not the packs of Gatorade. :(

Answer #1

I never did like gatorade that much…ive always been a powerade drinker.

Answer #2

I’ve been drinking that now instead actually… they taste more like the way Gatorade should. :) Besides they are a lil cheaper! I just don’t get why they change something when everyone likes the way it was!

Answer #3

Finally someone agrees with me… it’s like since they changed the design, they changed the flavor, too… it’s.. different. It’s still good to me, but not like it used to be. I’m taking my complaint to the big man! jk. :P I go with Powerade most of the time

Answer #4

i used to love it but now i dont think it has enough flavor. it seems watery

Answer #5

:) yep, to me its okay at first… but I just can’t seem to finish a bottle of the new gatorade. Just hope powerade doesn’t do the same thing!!

Answer #6

Right!! :D

Answer #7

and it seems to make me more thirsty

Answer #8

They probably cut down on the sugar in it. Ohh it was so yummy. I liked those bottles with the twisty cap. :(

Answer #9

agreed! I thought you weren’t supposed to mess with perfection! They should have left it alone, or at least made a separate product instead of changing it all.

Answer #10

Yes, those bottles are cool! I still see them every once in a while at gas stations.

Answer #11

Yeah, I still like to shake it up and open it so it explodes. Yes, I’m childish. :D

Answer #12

:D Have you ever tried sticking Mentos mints in Diet Coke?? That will really explode!

Answer #13

exactly!

Answer #14

Agreed :)

Answer #15

I’ve heard of that, I wanna try it lol. I like things that go pshhh

Answer #16

Well this is a big PSHHH!! Be careful!! :D

Answer #17

I never liked gatorade it tasted funny, i drink 0 calorie vitamin water or sobe or just regular water

Answer #18

vitamin water is pretty good!! I always liked getting it when I started to feel sick.

Answer #19

I never did like Gatorade or any of the energy drinks because it was all just sugar. :( I found that when I worked out the same body parts 2 different days(1st day water, 2nd day Gatorade), I actually was twice as thirsty when I drank Gatorade. I’ve had many energy drinks in my life, but they don’t taste great, or they don’t really “energize” me. I did notice though, that as drinks get new designs, they get some sort of nastier flavor that goes with it.
