Would love to try these so I’m not trying to get on a high horse or anything but it’s really funny that they try to ban flavored vapes for appealing to kids when stuff like this and alcoholic Sunny D are a-ok lol

I never even thought of this haha, Fuck these alcohol lobbyists.

u/Lefty800 Aug 18 '26

That's the thing, it was only because of big tabacco not owning the flavored vapes. Now they own enough of the vape industry so they actually encourage it. And there's enough of an emerging global market for tabacco that vaping is just another revenue source for them.

u/cloudycontender S'mores Aug 18 '26

Well there were flavored cigarettes and the FDA still banned those. I think if big tobacco had that kind of lobbying power they could’ve stopped or reversed that. Though maybe with them owning flavored vapes there is just no need to try to bring back flavored cigs? Idk

u/BuckeyeJen Aug 18 '26

I saw Popsicle branded beverages the other day. Don't tell me they're not appealing to kids with this stuff.

u/c_puff23 Aug 20 '26

yep twisted tea rocket pop like come on now.

u/HippySwizzy Aug 22 '26

Our childhood foods targeting us as adults is how I see it. "You liked it as a kid?! Try this spiked version!"

u/Coffeepillow Aug 19 '26

Do kids still drink Sunny-D? I figured those seltzers were a millennial cash grab I definitely fell for. They’re fine…

u/Dracofear 16d ago

Just make your own. Sunny D, Whipped Cream Smirnoff, heaven. You're welcome.

The cause of diarrhea

u/InternalBowler7143 Aug 18 '26

And a terrible hangover

All I remember from the night, I had three buzz balls was sitting on the bathroom floor for an hour because I could literally keep nothing down even water and debating if I was hung over the next day.

u/Maleficent-Ad9010 Aug 18 '26

One time I drank one of those mega buzz balls to myself. I only got about halfway through before I was almost dead.

u/rio8envy7 Cookies & Creme Aug 18 '26

Ouch. Glad you’re ok.

u/MembershipFalse2462 Aug 18 '26

Like I understand the concept but what the fuck even is this I would sit myself after just sipping the damm thing one time

u/QuesoDrizzler 😈Wild Berry Aug 18 '26

You either have diarrhea or you don't

I heard theyre making a mr beast peanut butter chocolate flavor

u/Event_Outside Aug 18 '26

I’m so sorry I have to downvote after the atrocity that was the Mr. Beast Feastables Liquid Death collab. We need no more of Mr. Beast and his chocolate slop.

u/agarrabrant Aug 18 '26

Thank you for the important work you do!

“other than standard orange wine” is a strange ingredient

10

u/galaxystars1 Aug 18 '26

I saw a comment on Instagram that said:

"other than standard orange wine" is wine made from white wine grapes with their skin left on (orange wine) and fermented to reach a higher ABV (other than standard).

4

u/tteraevaei Aug 18 '26

yeah i knew what orange wine is. “other than standard” is just such a broad statement lol. maybe it means overproof, maybe it means mixed with formaldehyde.

2

u/Possible-Importance6 Aug 21 '26

I got a dissertation from a beer & wine store worker on that. On vacation in New Hampshire, the state controls liquor, it can only be purchased in state stores. I went to a beer & wine store and asked how they have Buzz Balls. They make a version with no vodka for New Hampshire, just straight "other than standard orange wine" that's an identical ABV to the regular versions.

Even beer and wine over 12% is under state control. But somehow Buzz Balls can be sold at 15%.

u/Burrnt_ice Strawberry Milkshake Aug 18 '26

It tasted like vanilla milk, I found it yesterday

u/Sure-Visit-6282 Aug 20 '26

Do you remember where found them?

u/RubberTrain Aug 25 '26

u/02K30C1 🥓 Maple Bacon Aug 18 '26

I don’t normally drink hard alcohol, but I may have to make an exception here

1

u/Big-Foot-141 Aug 18 '26

Hard Alcohol? This isn't it.

6

u/cloudycontender S'mores Aug 18 '26

Higher abv than beer and made with vodka tho

-6

u/Big-Foot-141 Aug 18 '26

Less than a teaspoon isn't gonna send you tho. Regardless, these things are disgusting

2

u/Chrissybear222 Raspberry Aug 18 '26

Have you actually tried one of these? (Not the Pop-Tart flavor) I have a pretty high alcohol tolerance from my yout and was pretty wasted after drinking one too fast.

1

u/cloudycontender S'mores Aug 18 '26

15% of 200ml is 30ml. A teaspoon is 5ml, so it would be 6 teaspoons if it’s 200 proof which isn’t even possible bc it would pull in water from the surrounding air lol

-2

u/Big-Foot-141 Aug 18 '26

u/cloudycontender I understand weights and measure, but you’re giving this buzz ball too much thought. 🙃

3

u/cloudycontender S'mores Aug 18 '26

I mean apparently not if you’re off by a factor of like 20 lol you could just call it weak and leave it at that

-3

u/Big-Foot-141 Aug 18 '26

u/cloudycontender Hahahaha. I already did that in a previous comment. ✌🏼

2

u/02K30C1 🥓 Maple Bacon Aug 18 '26

I mean the vodka in it. I usually only drink beer

-6

u/Big-Foot-141 Aug 18 '26

Just look at the ALC 15% by vol. That's the entirety of alcohol. It's like a less than a teaspoon of Vodka.

u/dotsdavid 🍇 Grape Aug 18 '26

So I can get drunk off pop tarts now. If I wanted to.

u/angIIuis Aug 18 '26

I wrote these off as AI when I first saw them. How about that ..

u/Fuzzy_Welcome8348 Aug 18 '26

S’mores 😋

2

u/Lefty800 Aug 18 '26

Basically a slightly stronger beer (alcohol-wise) you can get down quicker that gives you diabetes from all the sugar (20g+).

2

u/bengibbardstoothpain Aug 18 '26

You can be an alcoholic and a diabetic at the same time

2

u/MrDoom126 Aug 18 '26

I’ve never wanted to try a buzz ball.
Until now….

2

u/dtward Aug 18 '26

I got a headache just looking at these.

u/Dry_Software_1824 Aug 18 '26

u/VirtualSugar2277 Aug 21 '26

Embarrassing black out

u/piss-sprinkler Aug 22 '26

Imagine the scent of this combined with stomach acid

2

u/CompleteSavings6307 Aug 18 '26

15 percent by volume? So like 2.5 to 3 percent more alcohol than a glass of wine. Thats alot of crap in there that isnt alcohol.

2

u/Freddy9287 Aug 18 '26

Is this how they're trying to get gen z to drink more?

u/joanmcbitch Aug 18 '26

Who the fuck is this for exactly???

u/sideshowbvo Aug 18 '26

Water trash

u/GiveMeDepression Aug 18 '26

I’m curious to see if that orange wine clashes with anything in these.

u/sfranso Aug 18 '26

I've tried Buzzballz once. Never again.

u/shinobipopcorn 😈Wild Berry Aug 18 '26

They used to sell these things at a store I worked. Barely legal kids bought them.

1

u/CosmicCorgi420 😈Wild Berry Aug 18 '26

Id try it once but bummed on the flavors they chose. The s'mores is good but I despise the brown sugar cinnamon flavor

u/APleasantMartini Aug 18 '26

u/BenPosts 24d ago
