Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Cadbury Schweppes is preparing to launch their largest marketing campaign to date in a market clearly dominated by PepsiCo's Gatorade. Though the product itself isn't exactly new, Accelerade was purchased by Cadbury Schweppes last year and is now backed by a reported $50 million campaign scheduled to begin on May 28. Accelerade will be joining Gatorade and Coke's Powerade (seriously, who names these things?) in the fight to become your sports drink of choice. Their ads will tell you to "Sweat Smarter," and will feature a team of athletes including Derek Jeter and Mia Hamm pitching the product.
If you are interested in seeing what makes them any different than the others, Accelerade features a product comparison chart on their website which breaks down the carbs, calories, and various other stats between the different brands of drinks.

I like Gatorade because of the huge variety of flavors, mostly the non-traditional ones. And the name Gatorade actually has significance as it was created as an "aid" for the Florida Gator football team to prevent dehydration. The others that use X-ade as their name are mimicking Gatorade.
