Gatorade goes bad
(This is a potentially unpleasant post, so skip it if you would like.)
Gatorade goes bad. Logically there is no reason why it shouldn’t, eventually; it just had never occurred to me before that it would. I keep a bottle of Gatorade in my car for when I get thirsty. Last night I reached over, unscrewed the cap, and had swallowed three times before I could stop myself. It was the consistency of mucilage or phlegm. It did not taste hyper-revolting, which is a good sign, but it was certainly off. When I got out of the car I held it under the light: it was a petri dish. Black colonies were floating throughout the semi-liquid. I was afraid last night that I would be taken ill; as of this morning nothing unpleasant has happened, and I count myself very fortunate.
Please keep this in mind regarding storage of Gatorade.
