CULTURE: Coca-Cola to Introduce Calorie-Burning Green Tea Soda

Enviga is a new green tea based beverage coming soon from the Coca-Cola company who claim that 3 12-ounce servings can actually burn 60-100 calories. The beverage taps into the age-old powers of green tea extract or epigallocatechin gallate which when combined with caffeine can have the effect of speeding up the metabolism.

Dr. Rhona Applebaum, chief scientist, The Coca-Cola Company says:

That's pretty good marketingspeak from a "Chief Scientist"...

Enviga will be available in the northeast U.S. sometime this month, and in the rest of the country in January.

Will this miracle product actually help you lose weight just by drinking it, or is Enviga destined to go the way of Olestra, the "miracle" fat substitute that only seemed to be successful at giving unsuspecting customers bad cases of the funny poops.

This sounds unsafe.

Like some sort of canned amphetamine substitute.

Anal Leakage is the new Diet Coke.

hMMMmmmmm.... iiiiinteresting..... i'm curious as to how it tastes, though i really doubt the calorie burning properties

Not for me.

it's people!

It sounds like it works by jacking your heart rate up. Why not drink something else and pop some ephedrine if that's what you want?

Mmmmmmmmmmm soylent-cola.....

Let's retitle this thread, "A bunch of people who know nothing about what they are talking about, talking about something."

Let me know when a couple of chemists show up.

drink green tea. simple.

Well if it turns out like Budweiser extra (which tastes like an energy drink instead of beer) I dunno, but if I can still make me burp like regular Coke then I'm ok.

But I do know that anal leakage is the new diet coke.

It sounds kinda like AriZonas Green Tea Energy drink er what ever which was absolutely DISGUSTING in my opinion

b-b-b-bullshit.

Yeah, but green tea doesn't have the added bonus of anal leakage.

So are you a chemist or did you just become a hypocrite when you posted?

Hey, you know what else burns calories? Not being a lazy fuck and walking! I fucking hate how lazy and quick-fix this country has become.

MEH.

well, Coke has had so many good ideas over the years, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. oh wait.

I think the real question here is...How will it taste with rum

I'd try it but the garage is sooooo far away.

YES!

i'll stick to QT's RamJam light, 1.79$ a can, and far more potent then redbulll.

The local news tested these... you have to drink FIVE cans of this crap to burn off two Oreos. How about this? Just put away the fucking Oreos.

Unfortunately, this is the land of instant gratification. Things aren't supposed to have consequences and if they do, well drink something else to protect you from the other thing that made you lose weight. It's insanity, stupidity, and corporate greed.
