Is that a product for the US market?

Is the US now at the point where English is printed smaller than Spanish? The US already seems to have shelved the term "caramel" in favor of the retarded Mexican term.

Get your dose of sodium for the month.....that should be their jingle......here I'll sing it, OK I can't sing

Is it true, you're supposed to cut Gatorade with water?

(I used to drink the lemon/lime, and the orange all the time as a youngster, orange is pretty good)

Anyways it Gator-ah-day, pendejos

I bought one the other day.  I saw lime and didn't clearly see the cucumber part.

Holy fuck did it taste horrible

It's a Mexican flavor marketed to the Spanish speaking peoples of the south.

Yeah I regurgitated that shit for 12 hours after drinking it.

Its a sports drink, not a replacement for Coke/tea/whateversweetdrinkyoulike. And yes, at "normal" strength, it will make you wretch when running long distances. It's got to be watered down a good bit, way too sweet. Runners that don't use something like this take salt tabs to get salt back, especially at this time of year.

Tastes terrible, and you can smell it from six feet away.

I've seen some of those unusual Spanish flavors here too. Lemon cucumber doesn't sound very tasty, though.

Gatorade G2 .....half the sugar/carbs ,  same potassium/sodium.   Definitely tastes better than full strength Karo-rade

That's my favorite flavor

Really refreshing on a hot as hell south Texas day

Would probably be awesome with vodka

Yeah I almost bought that thinking I was grabbing some mexican label mixup version of my typical post 80-degree run lemon lime.

Cucumbers ? WTF  GTFO of here with that.

They were out of lemon lime.  Picked orange instead of the other gay flavors (purple, white, blue)

Going back to water

Skratch Labs "Lemons + Limes". It's the only thing I use on long (23+ mile) day hikes

I was expecting a spelling error or something.  Am I supposed to be upset because they use Spanish words for the name?

Me importa un pepino!

This is a CIA support operation to ensure that all the "new" Democratic voters being illegally imported by the Obama administration will be properly nourished while waiting in line (yes, theres THAT MANY new voters) during the next election.

Nothing to see here...

Oh, and this just in.... Obama will be giving Rosetta Stone Spanish language learning program subsidies to poor white citizens so that they may be able to function in their country after all this "change" is completed.

They've thought of everything... how sweet of them

No no... I personally was born and grew up overseas, so I actually like international foods...

What really bothers me is WHY so much spanish food and labeling is being used in this country... and WHO its being marketed to... along with everything else....

Nothing to see here; Now press 1 for Spanish, you gringos!

I'd be willing to bet the decision to keep the name in spanish was specifically to target non-spanish speakers.  Americans who might balk at trying "Lime-cucumber" flavor might give "Limon-Pepino" a try.

I wouldn't buy anything that sounded like i'd be putting "lemon penis" in my mouth... at least not while sober or with sober friends watching.

So why not just change the name... instead of offending (myself) and possibly other FORMER gatorade drinkers?

To me, "green and tasty" sounds a lot better than some garbled spanish translation about cucumbers...

Legal or illegal Spanish is here to stay. And if you're not willing to capitalize on the changing demographic, someone else will. I bet you look at anyone that speaks Spanish as a Mexican Illegal  All I see here is a fairly PC version of racism.... You say in your other post you don't understand why Gatoraide would choose that name and risk offending people, well... thats because most people don't broadly hate spanish and the people that speak it...

You hear "pepino" and you think "penis?"

Aaaaalright then.

I think most native Enlgish speakers hear "pep" as in "put some pep in your step,"  or, "pep rally"  it invokes energy and enthusiasm.  

For you, though, it invokes "penis."

Then blindly accepting everybody and everything while our country slips down the slippery slopes could be the problem...

And yea, when i live in America and im the only person in the shopping line speaking English.... yea, im gonna look around and wonder wtf is going on.

Not to mention that 83% of the social services of PWC, VA goes to non english speaking (spanish) non citizens.... yea, nothing to see here..no facts, just my raciss thoughts

Right, and "suck my cucumber" would be any different?  "Suck my" is what causes that interpretation.  But, nice try.  It's fun to watch desperate defenses of derp.
