FRS If you've been on the internet in the past year, you've probably seen an ad for this company featuring Lance Armstrong. Anyway, FRS stands for Free Radical Scavengers. This company's entire product line revolves around antioxidants, which "scavenge" the "free radicals" in our bodies. Personally, I think free radicals were made up so people could sell the solution; and look, now everyone's raving for antioxidants. Ever seen the dandruff shampoo commercial where the guy plans to sell tires with "0 death crystals?" Same sort of idea. Antioxidant Chews I have small single serving packs of these chews; they also come in large bags. Orange Size: Pack of chews Location Acquired: GNC, Oakdale Mall, Johnson City, NY Location in Collection: The Highrise Taste Rating: 6/10 Energy Rating: 1/10 Review: Although FRS's whole thing is antioxidants, they also concede to truth and added a tiny amount of caffeine to these chews. Overall, they taste pretty good. But energy doesn't come from vitamins and antioxidants alone, FRS! Pomegranate Size: Pack of chews Location Acquired: GNC, Oakdale Mall, Vestal, NY Location in Collection: The Highrise Taste Rating: 6/10 Energy Rating: 1/10 Review: These also taste pretty good, with a better texture than those Clif things. Energy, not really. Pineapple Mango Size: Pack of chews Location Acquired: GNC, Nittany Mall, State College, PA Location in Collection: The Roomies Taste Rating: 8/10 Energy Rating: 1/10 Review: These are by far the most delicious of the chew flavors; still no energy though. Energy Drink Orange Size: 11.5oz can Location Acquired: GNC, Crossgates Mall, Albany, NY Location in Collection: The Roomies Taste Rating: 7/10 Energy Rating: 2/10 Review: I'd been avoiding getting these drinks, because they were always in fourpacks in GNC. I didn't want to spend the money for a fourpack of a drink I wouldn't even like. That whole time, I assumed they were carbonated. So imagine my surprise when I opened this orange flavored one to find, well, orange juice. It was kind of like Rumba Energy Juice. Tasted ok, energy wasn't really there. |
