I think I would have a tough time with going full vegan. Vegetarian sounds like I could do it easily. I enjoy a lot of vegetarian dishes regularily and will often prefer vegetarian options over meat based dishes.

It's actually cheaper in the US, to note. The lowest income groups in the US are the one exactly the most likely to be vegan or plant-based

Of all the places in the world I’ve been, eating vegan in the US was the easiest by far.

Edit: except India. I should have specified western world.

I mean, your country can be rich but it does not mean it's easy being vegan and even if its, often there is still an economic impact on going vegan that poorer people cannot afford

Well, they use gum Arabic. But energy drinks have taurine.

I don't get the appeal. It tastes like energy drink flavour.

With so many funny and interesting flavours monster and most other energy drinks have, choosing the basic energy flavour is just bland.

White Monster? Pretty good. Better than Red Bull for sure. But the best Monster for me is the ice tea flavored one.

If you enjoy what's essentially lightly carbonated and highly caffienated sugar water, then they're pretty good.

Best, flavor of battery acid

Good? No. Fine if you want to not sleep for a concerning amount of time, and better than coke zero because it's got more caffeine per caffeine.

If you want heart palpitations.

White Monster (pictured) tastes like... orange pop that's less sweet, much more citrus and has something else going on akin to saltiness at the same time; maybe it's an umami-flavour. It is genuinely delicious. I have now tried the rest of the Monster line-up and despised them, they are all fit for the pit. I haven't tried any other energy drink.

I prefer the pink cans. But they’re okay for an energy drink.

Pretty clear that's white monster wrapped 🥓

They use a synthetic taurine, but yes they do.

Yes but don't be fooled by the name: Taurine is called like that only because it was first discovered in bulls but it's present and produced by many other animals and micro organism; as much as i know most of the taurine is today produced either by synthesis or by harvesting what some micro organisms produce
