Pick Your Poison!!! Beverage Product Election!!!
By Marvo | December 20, 2005
It’s been awhile since I had a product election here at The Impulsive Buy, which allows you, the readers, to decide what product The Impulsive Buy reviews next. The product election also allows me to clean up my apartment which currently has empty bottles of products strewn all over the place.
Fortunately, they are mostly empty bottles of soda and water. However, if they were all empty bottles of beer, I could sing the “99 Bottles of Beer On The Wall” song or Fox could shoot an episode of Cops in my apartment.
Anyway, over the past few months I’ve tried various beverages. A few of them are sweet, one is pure, one is healthy, and one gets me so wasted that it will make me think the TV show Joey is actually funny.
In this product election, you will be able to choose from six “poisons”:
1. Oxygen Water
2. Island Fruit 7Up Plus
3. Mountain Dew MDX
4. XS Clearly Fruit Punch Sports Drink
5. Odwalla Superfood
6. Grey Goose La Vanille Vodka
The candidate with the most votes will be declared the winner. The winner will be reviewed and the other candidates will either be recycled or turned into spittoons.
To vote, just leave a comment for this post with your choice. Only one choice and vote per person.
I’ll be accepting votes until Sunday, December 25th. Shortly after the 25th, I’ll post the review of the winning product.
Now go vote like it’s the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards.

I vote for the Oddwalla superfood. Anything green with algae has to make for some interesting review writing.
December 21st, 2005 at 12:11 am
I want the oxygen water to be reviewed, just so we can see what’s so freakin’ special about it. I thought water already HAD oxygen in it?
December 21st, 2005 at 1:09 am
I’m going to have to go with the Oddwalla as well

i want the grey goose i want a drunken reveiw please
December 21st, 2005 at 2:31 am
Gotta go with the Goose - just think of the interesting drink concoctions you could make and review with the Goose. Also maybe it might inspire another stripping video!
December 21st, 2005 at 2:31 am
Go for the Grey Goose. I also want a drunken review.
December 21st, 2005 at 2:58 am
I agree with Rick .. definitively the grey Goose vodka!
December 21st, 2005 at 3:29 am
Grey Goose Vodka - it has always been a friend to me
December 21st, 2005 at 3:33 am
Being that vodka is my bestest friend….I say “go grey goose!!”.
December 21st, 2005 at 4:08 am
Oxygen Water
December 21st, 2005 at 4:31 am
Vanilla vodka sounds disgusting, so I’m going for the Odwalla.
December 21st, 2005 at 5:09 am
Grey Goose, drunken, not stirred.
December 21st, 2005 at 5:11 am
goose for sure. if the review is good enough, it might make me tear up like top gun. poor goose….
December 21st, 2005 at 5:22 am
Should this even be a vote? We all know Grey Goose is gonna win! Its not even gonna be close
Yea, Grey Goose is my vote! Make some tasty drinks, maybe do some body shots, be creative, have fun with it, and definitely let us know what wild & crazy things you did

December 21st, 2005 at 5:48 am
Grey Goose.. plzkthnx
December 21st, 2005 at 6:06 am
Odwalla Superfood!! Amusing names always get to me. ^^
December 21st, 2005 at 6:09 am
Not sure it matters at this point, but definitely the Goose. Though I am curious about MDX as well.
December 21st, 2005 at 6:35 am
Go grey goose - I too want a drunken review
December 21st, 2005 at 6:38 am
Hmmmm…so many choices…I’m gonna go with the Grey Goose Vodka!
December 21st, 2005 at 6:47 am
Superfood! (C’mon, don’t be wasting your Grey Goose on a review, dude.)
December 21st, 2005 at 6:47 am
Grey Goose (even though it sounds gross to me).
December 21st, 2005 at 7:07 am
VODKA!
December 21st, 2005 at 7:08 am
Another vote for Odwalla Superfood!
December 21st, 2005 at 7:11 am
Grey Goose!
Or better yet, review the Goose with each of the others. I can see many successful new mixed drinks at the end of the tunnel…
Oxygen water and Grey Goose = G2H2O
7-up Plus and Grey Goose = Flock of geese
Superfood and Grey Goose = Super Goose! Or would that be goose food?
December 21st, 2005 at 7:45 am
I must say, I like Jim’s idea!
December 21st, 2005 at 8:17 am
I’m voting for the MDX, because Gray Goose - seriously - is my VICE. And it would get THE MOST PERFECT OF SCORES. And it would blow your mind a little too much.
Save your Vanilla Goose for egg nog. You will not be disappointed.
December 21st, 2005 at 8:22 am
Well, since I already know that the 7up stuff is GROSS, I vote for the Superfood.
December 21st, 2005 at 8:31 am
As my best friend’s Polish uncle would scream, “GREY GOOSE!!!” Must drink it ICE COLD.
December 21st, 2005 at 8:52 am
odwalla superfood… I have tried the bar, but wonder what the liquid version would be like… http://www.iniardwathch.blogspot.com
December 21st, 2005 at 9:05 am
Odwalla Superfood. The review writes itself.
December 21st, 2005 at 9:08 am
I vote for #2, since I’m quite familiar with #6 as it is.
December 21st, 2005 at 9:30 am
vodka! definitely vodka!
December 21st, 2005 at 9:46 am
Grey Goose! Grey Goose! Grey Goose! Grey Goose! Forget about that “healthy” crap.
December 21st, 2005 at 9:53 am
You gotta pimp the Grey Goose.
December 21st, 2005 at 10:19 am
Grey Goose … come on!
Wait a second, if we vote for one of the non-alcoholic ones does that mean you’ll give away the Grey Goose in one of your other drawings?
December 21st, 2005 at 10:42 am
Grey Goose
December 21st, 2005 at 10:45 am
MDX. It’s the only good drink on there. Energy Drinks > Alcohol.
That’s a fact. (Especially since I’m 14, and alcohol is out of the question anyway…) I would assume and HOPE that most of the people voting for Grey Goose or whatever ar AT LEAST 18, even though 21 is legal. If not, I don’t know what’s happening to this corrupt world
December 21st, 2005 at 10:47 am
Odwalla Superfood!
December 21st, 2005 at 10:50 am
Mountain Dew MDX
December 21st, 2005 at 11:01 am
I’m with rfduck… wtf? Oxygen Water? It MUST be reviewed!!!
December 21st, 2005 at 11:44 am
I vote for mixing the Grey Goose with each of the above drinks, and writing a SuperReview. Then maybe you could bust out with another chart (like the lovely Marshmallow Chart), and we could all ooh and ahh, it would be like a special Christmas present to your readers. I know that wasn’t one of the named options, but I am somewhat difficult.
Are you a “lack the enzyme” person (i.e., lacking aldehyde dehydrogenase to properly process alcohol)? I wouldn’t be able to properly review the Goose because after only a sip I would turn purple. I’m may be hapa, but I’m all Chinese in that respect!
December 21st, 2005 at 12:03 pm
I agree with Amber, but just in case you don’t do that, Mountain Dew.
December 21st, 2005 at 12:10 pm
Gray Goose, Gray Goose! There’s nothing better than passing out in style after a couple a vodka Martinis!!
December 21st, 2005 at 12:19 pm
Mix the vodka and the MDX and write a drink by drink review!!
Love the site!
December 21st, 2005 at 12:25 pm
After Karen’s amusing post, I must vote for the vodaka, I haven’t had the vanilla…that I can remember…
December 21st, 2005 at 12:33 pm
Grey Goose Baby!
December 21st, 2005 at 12:57 pm
I agree with Amber and Jessika! Supermix!!
December 21st, 2005 at 1:09 pm
Grey goose fo sho
December 21st, 2005 at 1:32 pm
i’d say the grey goose, i actually think that if they gave all persons who are special guests of the nickelodeon kids choice awards about 5 shots of grey goose it would have much more entertainment value…i can see it now…the new kids on the block have their reunion on the show and they’re so drunk they throw up on the front row….yeah you got the right stuff.
December 21st, 2005 at 1:56 pm
Grey Goose Vodka! So we’ll all know what to drink once we’re finally allowed to.
December 21st, 2005 at 2:12 pm

GOOSE!
December 21st, 2005 at 2:22 pm
Oxygen water please
December 21st, 2005 at 2:39 pm
Odwalla superfood, only in that you may actually be able to chew your drink
December 21st, 2005 at 2:53 pm
hmm… let’s go with the vodka… and then he’ll mix it with everything else, RIGHT?
(i hope so)
December 21st, 2005 at 2:54 pm
Grey Goose La Vanille Vodka, please.
December 21st, 2005 at 2:58 pm
gotta be the goose
December 21st, 2005 at 3:01 pm
Shoot the Goose baby!
December 21st, 2005 at 3:03 pm
Do the goose (and review the vodka).
December 21st, 2005 at 3:07 pm
Grey Goose. And mix it with all the other stuff that’s nominated.
December 21st, 2005 at 3:39 pm
I had the same thought as dramastically. That will clean up everything.
December 21st, 2005 at 3:43 pm
I’m voting for the Mountain Dew for the review, but drink the Grey Goose anyway for the hell of it.
December 21st, 2005 at 3:50 pm
Grey Goose !
December 21st, 2005 at 4:29 pm
Hmm…must I really pick one? I want to know how the MDX is, but a drunken review would mix things up nicely. Im’a go with the Grey Goose.
December 21st, 2005 at 4:43 pm
review the superfood….who cares about the freaking vodka.
December 21st, 2005 at 5:21 pm
Mountain Dew MDX baby!!!!
December 21st, 2005 at 5:43 pm
Goose! Goose! Goose! Goose!
December 21st, 2005 at 5:45 pm
Superfood fo sho.
December 21st, 2005 at 5:56 pm
i’m with dave - where’s the artfulness in a bottle of booze? but the superfood ain’t new. that shit’s been around forever
the OXYGEN WATER is the perfect candidate becuz it’s 1. new and 2. ripe w/ potential for a philosophical rant on nothingness
December 21st, 2005 at 6:01 pm
Do da Goose hunney!
December 21st, 2005 at 6:08 pm
vanilla vodka, but I want to see you do a side by side comparison with the other vanilla vodkas!!
December 21st, 2005 at 6:38 pm
I vote for Oxygen water. Maybe you could mix it with the Grey Goose?
December 21st, 2005 at 7:45 pm
Oxygen water!
What is it?
I’m intrigued, yet confused.
Hmmm..
December 21st, 2005 at 8:14 pm
Go for the Goose! HONK HONK!
December 21st, 2005 at 9:15 pm
oxygen water dude…….mdx is nasty in my humble opinion…and the vodka is good lol
December 21st, 2005 at 9:22 pm
Odwalla Superfood, as it look and sounds like one of those things that “tastes great!” brings on “new energy and vitality!” and cleanses your system by causing you to “sh*t ungodly things that have been accumulating and impacting in your colon over the years.”
December 21st, 2005 at 9:58 pm
Go with the Mountain Dew MDX and see how long you stay up
December 21st, 2005 at 10:14 pm
I highly suggest reviewing all of the beverages by incorporating them as mixers with the vodka. This way we can all find out not only how good they are on the way down, but also how good they are on the way back up, presumably.
December 21st, 2005 at 10:24 pm
Do Grey Goose!!
December 22nd, 2005 at 12:46 am
Superfood! I’ve always looked at that bottle and been afraid to try it just cause of the color of the stuf…
December 22nd, 2005 at 3:10 am
as if my vote even matters at this point, definately i vote for the vodka, or as they spell it here, wodka. not only do i think it would be a much more entertaining review, it is the only product listed that is available to me. how exciting for me to read a review of a product i could actually go and buy!!!
December 22nd, 2005 at 4:43 am
Mountain Dew… the sweet neon nectar of the gods. Now with even MORE caffeine. Jeez!!
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:13 am
Either MDX so I can beat you again
or
Grey Goose La Vanille Vodka, drunken review for the win.
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:48 am
Grey Goose La Vanille Vodka
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:14 am
Grey Goose my friend…not only because I want to read a drunken interview, but because I want to see if it really makes you think that Joey is funny.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:21 am
Marvo, this is like one of those lineups at a police station where they ask the victims to pick out the person they think committed the crime, and they have 5 normal looking guys but one guy wearing a ski mask, loaded bazooka, nunchucks around his neck, and knives in his steel toed boots…
Oh, by the way I vote for the vodka.
December 22nd, 2005 at 11:16 am
Tough call - vodka would be fun but the Odwalla may make you puke. I say Odwalla.
December 22nd, 2005 at 11:31 am
I vote for the Odwalla SuperFood drink. Algae!?
December 22nd, 2005 at 12:06 pm
Are you kidding me? Grey Goose.
December 22nd, 2005 at 12:40 pm
Oxygen Water, it’s surely the biggets waste o’ funds.
December 22nd, 2005 at 2:08 pm
Odwalla Superfood
December 22nd, 2005 at 2:23 pm
Odwalla. Liquid soylent green, yum-yummy.
December 22nd, 2005 at 2:49 pm
Oxygen water! Why does it exist? Does it taste like nothing?
December 22nd, 2005 at 5:48 pm
Yeah! What in the hell is oxygen water??? Do you inhale it through your nose?
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:14 pm
My opinion(s) du jour, Marvo (and a healthy 2006 to you after a happy Christmas from probably the only Hanukkah-celebrating visitor here):
Odwalla Superfood is really awful. Review it if you are so inclined, but be prepared!! I’ve had it on two separate occasions (being open-minded as I am) … and neither time was it at all palatable. And lest you forget, I’m an almost-vegan with a voracious appetite (for GOOD veg food and beverages). YuckEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE on that one…
All the 7Up Plusses (Pluses?) are banal. Soporific, if you will.
I vote for the Oxygen water!
MERRY CHRISTMAS MARVO… and to all The Impulsive Buy readers/commenters!
Shalom!
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:52 pm
If I remember high school chemistry correctly, H20 (water) + O (oxygen) = H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), which states explicitly on the bottle, “avoid swallowing.”
I vote for the “Oxygen Water” because I am curious how they keep it from turning into peroxide. Maybe it will bleach your roots from the inside out.
December 23rd, 2005 at 5:15 am
To waste Grey Goose would be to break the 11th Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Waste Alcohol.
December 23rd, 2005 at 1:53 pm
gotta go with the oxygen water since it’s the most pointless.
GREY GOOSE? how could one waste that on a review? insanity.
December 23rd, 2005 at 2:03 pm
MDX! MDX! It has the best bottle.
December 23rd, 2005 at 2:20 pm
Tally as of now:
O2- 11
7up- 1 (XD, no wonder they are losing market share)
MDX- 12 (my pick)
Spt. dnk.- 0
Odwalla- 19
Vodka- 40
Halfway through, I wondered what the point was. It is obvious that vodka won.
MERRY CHRISTMAS, MARVO! (keep the “Christ” in “Christmas”)
December 23rd, 2005 at 6:15 pm
Mt. Dew MDX. Very curious about this one.
December 23rd, 2005 at 6:16 pm
Wow, 7-Up Plus really *CARES* about us…
WHO KNEW?!?!!
Perhaps i should change my choice for a
marvelous Marvo-filled review from the
Oxygen beverage to the Pluses/Plusses?
http://7up.com/FamiliesPlus/Dec05/About.aspx
December 23rd, 2005 at 8:10 pm
Have some fun…do the goose
December 23rd, 2005 at 8:36 pm
I vote for the Grey Goose La Vanille Vodka because vodka is good. Also, maybe you’ll get so drunk that you’ll post naked pics of you on the site.. or at least a face shot!!
December 24th, 2005 at 3:12 am
Da Goose, because that superfood tastes like seaweed.
December 24th, 2005 at 7:40 pm
go with the odwalla.
December 24th, 2005 at 10:55 pm
go for the grey goose, marvo! i’ll try to match you with some very fine bombay sapphire. in the meantime, Mele Kalikimaka!
December 25th, 2005 at 8:44 pm
I say Oxygen water! Merry Christmas!
December 26th, 2005 at 1:33 am
Well the vodka won by a landslide. So keep an eye out for the review in the next couple of weeks.
Thanks to everyone who participated.
