Highly caffeinated drinks have become a cultural staple. But following a death allegedly related to Panera Bread’s Charged Lemonade, has our collective obsession with energy drinks become unsafe?

not diminsihing this dude’s death, but 3x of these are no worse than 3x 4x tim’s large, or grande *$. check figures, pretty sure these coffees are each well over 300mg caffeine. confounding is: might be a free refill situation, as I’m recalling any Panera I ever visited allowed, or maybe just the lemonade/sweet tea/iced tea?; cold, so perhaps could drink more faster than hot coffee?
should make a simple table for *$, timmis, and this drink, in both 3x L or XL and mg/ml
why not look this up? why not ask ChatGPT to make a table, which looked like this:
but became this when I pasted the code from the last ChatGPT output, with at least basic table formatting correct; I wonder if the table ChatGPT was outputting is a standardized format, it sorta looks like sql; must check this data and fix a bit, then maybe try to fix the size column units; and then see if ChatGPT can add other energy drinks, like *$ espresso, monster, etc BUT BE SURE to validate the data so far!!.; i feel weirdly afraid to break something, but then I can always just tell ChatGPT to just revert, so far that’s been working for the few simple things I’ve tried. it would be uinteresting to ask someone with little/some/good/excellent computer skills to create this data ffrom ina google sheet or excel perhaps their own =searches?
