They only did this because they are sitting on a bunch of inventory they can't sell, so they used it for marketing, check out LegalEagle on youtube he has a 20 minute video on the lawsuit they are facing, they agreed a contract to have a custom factory line built then backed off when sales plummeted
You mean tax deductions.... More lucrative than just biting the loss.
Not sure how the Us tax system works, but I am guessing storing inventory is also not free
US businesses have made an entire industry based on pretending to give a shit for tax breaks/deductions.
Great, so anyone allergic or sensitive to coconut water is fucked. Great job Mr. Influencer. If you can't do aid right, don't get in the way of the professionals.
Anyone who is allergic to coconut has my sincere pity, because coconut might be my favorite of all flavors.
Fuck prime and the paul brothers but you can't dismiss people/companies providing aid. By providing aid like this it frees up other resources for others to use. The professionals relay on any aid that they can get so long as it isn't going to hurt anyone. Someone allergic to something will know what they can/can't have.
Again fuck prime and it's a shit resource but when you're desperate you'll take what you can to stay alive.
That's not how it works. You go down the line handing out pre-made bundles. This isn't a grocery store.
Absolute piss. My 8 year old bought some and I tried it. It's like they tried to make it taste awful.
How did I not know these jackasses made Prime? Makes me feel guilty for the two I gagged down a year ago.
Did your spouse die and everything in your home is ruined by water damage? Here's a bottle of Prime. You're welcome.
I would rather drown myself than drinking that cat piss.
Also they don't even do it out of charity. Prime, being as dogshit as it is, is selling terribly. So they are giving it away instead of having to spend money getting rid of it. Would not expect nothing else from scammer logan and soulless KSI
I broke down and bought a pack of Prime to try recently after seeing it everywhere, even in the hands of people I don't associate with the whole Logan Paul circus.
It tasted like piss and chemicals. If you're at all sensitive to the taste of sucralose, it's like drinking battery acid. I simply cannot fathom how it is as successful as it is.
edit: typo
It's targeted towards kids and parents who don't know any better get it for them.
Kids, their taste buds are still developing so when they taste it and don't instantly vomit they think it tastes good. After that their taste buds are permanently shifted towards those types of flavors, making the problem worse. Should be illegal.
It's a nonsense mixture of electrolytes. We mostly sweat out sodium, not potassium. Prime has a lower level of sodium and a higher level of potassium. It just doesn't make sense.
And, y'know, it's just fully a scam. It's mostly successful because he's famous. The business seems to be failing in a big way.
The higher potassium does make some sense if you consider that most people already get excessive amounts of sodium in their diet and comparitively little potassium. Sodium is in practically everything, potassium not so much.
I would personally love to find an electrolyte mix with more potassium because I've had issues with potassium deficiencies. Of course I'm not about to buy this garbage and I doubt the shitheel selling it put that much thought into it.

You need to work on that. That's not good.
It's got electrolytes, its what hurricane survivors crave. Brought to you by Truth Social.
How the fuck does this guy have a career after the suicide forest video?
When you're rich you gets lots of extra chances.
You're not concerned about the multi million dollar Bitcoin scam or just didn't know? Dudes up to all sort of shady shit
The man has also been involved in numerous scams.
I'm obviously not his demographic, but my wife (a teacher) says that there are loads of kids 10 and upwards that love Logan Paul and KSI. I think the suicide forest thing predates many of them, or they just don't know/care about it.
People are still voting for Trump. You really should not be surprised anymore
Children watch his videos. Kids don't fucking care.
