UPDATE: Four Loko Banned in United States

The douche that banned Four Loko
Run to your nearby liquor store and stock up on the Lokos while you can because new reports seem to indicate that the FDA will be banning the caffeinated alcoholic beverage due to the dangers of drinking them.  It's sad that just yesterday I wrote a post about how it was only being banned in New York and how Minnesota was being spared...  

The culprit that is taking the Four Lokos out of our hands is US Senator Charles Schumer from New York.  According to his website, "U.S Senator Charles E. Schumer announced today that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will rule that caffeine is an unsafe food additive to alcoholic beverages, effectively making products such as Four Loko, Joose, and others like them, prohibited for sale in the United States. Additionally, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) plans to notify manufacturers that they are engaged in the potential illegal marketing of unsafe alcoholic drinks."
