This is infuriating. This is 167mg of fruit and 77mg of caffeine. It's only 23mg of caffeine away from an actual 100mg caffeine pill (which only costs about ten cents). "Superfood for clear thinking and mental focus." They put 2% of one cherry in 81% of a cup of coffee, and they're selling it like it is a fruit smoothie.

Front of the label doesn't say anything about caffeine, nor does their advertising. Looking at their webpage on a phone, I had to scroll past SEVEN PAGES of "natural growth healthy beauty nature" crap before caffeine was mentioned.

Of course it will improve mental focus and mood, because it's coffee. If you're someone trying to cut back on caffeine and getting caffeine withdrawal symptoms, this will stop them--because it IS caffeine. And if you start taking this as directed in addition to your normal coffee/energy drink, it could really fuck you up adding another cup and a half of coffee to your daily routine.

I believe there is benefit in crap like Huel or Soylent as a thing for people to have occasionally when they're not capable of preparing a meal. But this isn't even that! It's a weak cup of coffee someone waved a cherry peel over. (An actual vitamin C supplement is typically 1000mg, btw, compared to the 60mg here. Might as well be homeopathic.)
