Food Oddities: Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt Energy Drink

"I have traveled the world creating this drink; there is none better that I know. I have included in this drink everything I could to strengthen the body." -- Steven Segal

Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt Energy Drink's description reads like one of Segal's movie characters might spout off, right before he snaps your wrist and kicks the crap out of you. You have to admit, having Segal as a spokesperson for an energy drink seems a lot more convincing than a fat gamer sitting in front of an XBox would. Among the drink's unique ingredients is Asian Cordyceps, "one of the most rare and treasured herbs used in Chinese and Tibetan medicine for thousands of years." Tell me, how can something be rare and be used for thousands of years, nevermind being available for a mass produced energy drink? Look for this on the shelves of your favorite Tibetan grocer on September 8.
