I drank it today!!!
When did it get the hechsher??????? I drink powerade, anyhow.
was it better then powerade? is it as big a deal as everyone is making it out to be?
Gatorade is very good if you have a child who gets sick. Children can dehydrate very easily, and the doctors will often recommend they drink Gatorade to keep hydrated. Obviously, if it’s needed for medical reasons, it’s allowed, but now you don’t have to wait and ask if it’s really needed, you can just give it without asking!
The citrus flavors have actually been kosher for some time; they just did not have the stamp on the label.
Phew! Been waiting for this moment forever! I was having such a hard time managing without it!
(Sarcasm? From me?)
why is everyone making a big deal abt gatorade being kosher? there are so many other kosher drinks out there!
i luv gatorade
gatorade is a MUCH healthier drink than powerade, thats the reason doctors recommend for people to drink it. at one point, i was ONLY allowed to drink gatorade (no juice, water, etc) for a number of months. i have not felt the same since then, and i hope the stores where i shop will carry it soon.
u guys make it like u werent able to survive without it
Was it cold?
That doesn’t mean much I hear it is better cold
Ok calm down a friend of mine likes it so I am curious
For the sake of the other posters please keep your unrelated conversation to the Shmooze thread
In America there are many kosher substitutes for Gatorade. In Israel there are none.
During the summers in Israel many adults, especially Americans who made Aliya, need additional electrolytes to prevent dehydration.
My children,(adults) often dehydrate during the hot Israeli summers and MUST drink electrolytes (gatorade, powerade, etc.)every day to avoid going to the hospital for an IV of electrolytes. I have been schlepping powder packages for years for them and I can finally stop now that gatorade here, and in Israel, has a hechsher. Yay !!!!!!!!!!!!111
Let’s hope Gleukos gets its certification soon. It’s a much better product – higher in potassium, lower in sugar and sodium.

Please stick to the main topic. It really is unfair to the other readers of the CR when you discuss other irrelevant things. Thank you.
I tried Help for Alligators, once and did not like it.
I thought Poweraid, tasted better though all drinks are ruined because of the citric acid they put in to make it ‘tart’ which means nothing is really ever sweet, anymore.
If I wanted tart, I’d drink lemonaid.
“but now you don’t have to wait and ask if it’s really needed”
When dehydration is suspected you always treat first and ask questions later.
The latest reid is…
Ironically Gatorade is called that because it was invented to give the Florida Gators football team an extra boost later in the game, it worked so well that it became a real drink.
Its not the biggest deal but I will be drinking it.
arc, thank goodness it wasn’t invented at Florida State 😉
Help for alligators? How about help for lemons?
BS”D
wow, i remember those days when gatorade had just become kosher, it was major news
