Drinking OLD Gatorade

Would you drink gatorade if it was dated back in 12/06??

We have an opportunity to buy 24/ 24 oz bottles of Gatorade with the sports top for $12.

Is there anything in a gatorade that would go “bad”??

Does it have an expiration date on the containers? I’m sure it is still fine.

The expiration was actually dated 12/06.

My sister is drinking one now and it appears to be fine. She was just wanting to know before she bought several cases.

Hell, I’d drink Gatorade from 12/04. I don’t believe in expiration dates on that kind of thing. If it tastes weird, don’t drink it, otherwise it is probably fine.

Huh, I actually happen to have gatorade in my fridge right now, dated Dec 05 06.

I still plan to drink it someday. Let me know how that goes for you.

Hmmm…sugar, salt, water, and a few artificial flavorings. If it’s sealed, it’s almost certainly safe to drink. If it were an opened bottle, I’d toss it. But 12/06 isn’t even that long ago (by sugar water standards – I wouldn’t drink milk dated 12/06!)
