[...] Marvo beat me to this one by quite a while, but I don’t think it’s too bad since they are on a different time zone over there, I think maybe it’s only been an hour or something since he posted his once you factor in the time change.

Aarika – Tab Energy is definitely easier to drink than sugar-free Red Bull. However, I think Red Bull goes better with vodka. Although I didn’t try Tab Energy with vodka yet.

Tiff – I hope it comes in different colors and flavors…and more sweet, sweet caffeine.

I love the pretty can, I love pink and I think the drink tastes really good. I hope it doesn’t go away.

I totally made my friends try this while we were driving down to Southern California. They had been drinking sugar-free Red Bull all the way down thus far and I thought, “Hey, how could this be worse?” as I plucked it from the depths of the convenience store cooler. And they hated it. And cursed me for it. For days. I liked it better than Red Bull. Less acidic.

(I was so excited that I had tried something that you’ve tried that I left this story. Yay!)

random – Mmm…Sweeteners that have been shown to cause cancer in lab mice.

I remember drinking TaB as a kid. It’s one of the last sodas that still contains saccharin. For a while, it even carried an FDA warning. :D

Andy – My brother had a six-pack of A&W Root Beer for about five years in the back of his truck. I really wanted to drink one, but he wouldn’t let me. Thank goodness I didn’t drink it.

Karen – But let me tell you, I’m probably the butch lesbian, like Rosie O’Donnell. OMG, Cecil has been writing FOREVER!!!

Lord Jezo – Current score: TIB – 3 TMW – 8. You know another thing that won’t be much of a problem if you drink six or seven of them in one sitting…gas. Since they’re lightly carbonated, you can’t win burping contests with it.

Chuck – Yeah, it is kind of a strange soda. It’s kind of like the anti-energy drink because its appearance seems to be the opposite of what most energy drinks are like.

Mandy – You know all the COOL people are drinking it because they got it free from Coke, like Lindsay Lohan. I read that somewhere, but I don’t remember where.

Bryan – I can’t remember what Tab tastes like either, but this isn’t like your mommy’s Tab, it’s a whole new Tab with excessive amounts of pink.

skibs – There is a sweetness to Tab Energy, but I can’t say a fruity flavor. But I can say that vinaigrette is a hard word to spell. I had to look it up in the dictionary.

Chrissy – Maybe my tastebuds are messed up from being a quasi-product review blog editor, but I swear it taste like some kind of vinaigrette.

govtdrone – Hmm…Tequila and Tab Energy…Now that sounds really gross. Vodka and Tab Energy…That might be doable.

TG – Of course, for some, that fairy tale didn’t have a happy ending.

Oh Uncle Marvy, tank you for that fairwee tale. You picked quite a peck of pickled peppers there, yessiree! Can you tuck us in now?

Oh my god!! I can’t beleive you gave it a 3 out of 5. Tab Energy is so disgusting that after one swig I kept trying to get the taste out of mouth and I finally had to drink some Tequila shots before it went away. Nasty.

I actually like Tab Energy, I think it tastes like starbursts.

While growing up, I never did taste Tab, but I remember Pepper Free..pretty good stuff..
As far as Tab Energy goes, sounds interesting. Any fruityness to the salad dressing taste?…Raspberry vinaigrette perhaps?! Lots of caffeine can “sometimes” make anything drinkable.

I drank Tab once in awhile as a kid in the late 70s… but for the life of me I can’t remember what it tastes like. Although, after reading your review I’m not so keen to go try it and remind myself…

I dunno…When I first heard about this, my first thought was, “Wow, they made an energy drink for trailer trash!”
And then I felt guilty for thinking that. But just a little.
Of course, I kind of thought that Ashlee Simpson was a little trailer trashy too. So there you go.

That is some strange-sounding soda, there, Marvo. I think I’m sticking with Diet Dr. Pepper, myself.

You beat me this time!

What is this world coming to.. both PatBoyX and I just bought this yesterday to try it out and here we see your review already posted.

Point: Marvo.

One thing that I like about the Tab is that it only has 5 calories so pounding 6 or 7 of them wont be much of a problem. Tasted like some kind of diet candy to me, I rank it high on the energy drink scale but that’s not saying much considering that almost all of them taste like things designed to clean cars and not to be ingested.
