Have you ever seen a product that made you say “Why didn’t I think of that?”
It’s called Blood Energy Drink. It even comes in its very own IV bag! As you can see in the photo, the blood type is B positive. I wonder if O negative taste any different?

Have you noticed any really fat babies in the mall lately? I have. Infact since 1980 obesity in infants under 6 months had risen 73 percent according to a study released by the Harvard School of Public Health.
