Gatorade


Consumer Complaints & Reviews

Gatorade G2 Grape - I bought a case of Gatorade from the local Sam's Club in Colonial Heights, Virginia. After my family drank maybe 4 bottles, today, I noticed some slimy white substance with green center attached to my Gatorade bottle. I took the bottle straight out of the case at 5:00 this morning, it was still dark and I drank a few gulps of it. Later this morning, around 8:00, I happened to look at the bottle and noticed a white glob of something attached at the top side of it. Starting at it, I shook the bottle and it detached and fell to the bottom. I immediately felt sick to my stomach. The bottle was actually cracked and looked frayed along the cracked space. The glob was huge and maintained its shape, it floated to the bottom. My husband observed it and said it looked like mold. Since that happened, I'm unsure if my children ingested any of that substance. Now I worry about my four-year-old because she was recently hospitalized twice in the past four weeks for pneumonia and other breathing related issues. I am not letting this settle as a simple mold.

Gatorade milky substance - This happened to me too. Can we all sue them together? This is not acceptable.

I was 3/4 of the way through an orange flavored Gatorade when I noticed something dark floating in it. I poured the Gatorade through a strainer to find a 2-inch long grey and black object. This thing was surrounded by a milky white substance. The object was gelatinous and did not separate when I touched it. It's very upsetting. What is this thing and how much of it did I consume when I drank the Gatorade?

I took a big drink of my Cool Blue G series Gatorade (number 1222TT1 03:03 5) brought from the IGA in Valemount, BC, Canada. I noticed green and black "floaties" and I got sick not even 30 minutes later! I am taking it to the doctors with me to show them. I also have a second bottle that is not opened and it also has black or green mold floating inside! Then, I will be taking the bottles to a health inspector to have them checked out!

I bought a Gatorade drink to have for after baseball practice on 2/29/2012. After a hard practice, I grab the bottle and took a good long swig--immediately after I could smell a bad odor. I took a look inside my bottle of Gatorade and noticed a milky white floating substance in the bottle. I was sick all night and am still not feeling well. I missed part of work today. I felt I should go to my doctor. Then I looked online to see if this had happened to anyone else. Sure enough! Gatorade needs to step up, explain and take responsibility for their product! This is absolutely ridiculous!

Gatorade: I grabbed a lemon lime G2 and took a drink. I set it down on the table and my wife asked, "What is that floating?" I took a look and it was a black substance, it almost looked like it has a clear or white surrounding the black parts. It doesn't expire until April 12, 2012, #0938DT071714. What do I do?

I bought it from the local gas station, brought it home and took a big drink of it. After probably swallowing some, I spit out some slimy dark green/blue crap and it left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't feel bad, yet. I don't understand why there is not an answer yet. Blue Gatorade number 0308TT101815, expiry date is July 14, 2012.

I am a college student and over the Christmas break, I went food shopping for my dorm. I purchased a 24-pack of the G Series "Thirst Quenchers". I had no problems with the first half of the pack. By the time I got to the middle of the pack, I was drinking a lemon-lime flavored bottle when I noticed a slimy substance. I poured the drink into a cup and found a grey/green-like mold floating around. It resembled the kind of mold that's found on old bread. It was disgusting, so I contacted the company by email and still haven't gotten a response. Judging by the number of complaints online, it's a rare case but I refuse to take my chances. I'm not saying you all should stop drinking this but I know for a fact that I am!

We bought a 12 pack of Gatorade Perform02 Cool Blue from WalMart in Ephrata WA. My son drank over half of the bottle before questioning the taste and discovering the hopefully foreign material. I say hopefully, because it is phlegm-like, milky white, with specs floating in it. Could the specs be artificial coloring not dissolved? I Googled and have more concerns now that others have had issues. I am going straight to the company and may even pay for testing.

I was drinking on a Gatorade G2 when I felt this slimy substance in my mouth. I spit it out as soon as I tasted it. I had been drinking this G2 all day and I felt real sick just from seeing it in my bottle. I really would like to know what that was. I felt real sick.

I purchased a Gatorade G2, number on container is 2226dt040503x. I drank this product while working and after gulping a huge amount. A slimy substance was in my mouth and when I looked at the container, it was laden with this slimy substance. I threw up and then had stomach pain and diarrhea shortly after. I contacted store and was advised to return product for a refund. I advised the store that I want to know what the slimy substance is, I don't care about the refund. The store said they would test it.

I contacted Gatorade and they have yet to give any answer or offer to pay for testing. I contacted an attorney and she advised looking up online for similar complaints. Now that I see the complaints of a similar nature, I want this tested and answers from Pepsi Co.

We bought the G2 case from Costco and I was drinking the fruit punch flavor when I noticed an weird texture and spit out what I had into a Kleenex. I then looked in the bottle and also saw a milky, slimy, substance! I'm pregnant and this makes me very concerned as I am assuming this is mold!

Well, like most of the complaints, I have the similar slimy substance and I want to know what it is. I was at work and it was embarrassing. I threw up in front of my staff. Something has to be done about this!

My father bought the small bottles that come in 8 pacs for our hydration while working in the heat. We have a lawn are service out of McCalla, AL. I drank a good three to four chugs of the lemon lime flavored G2 Gatorade after noticing a unfamiliar taste and texture so I examined the liquid in the Bottle noticing a milky, slimy, almost a sick phlegm or snot looking substance which with just the site made me nauseated and vomited. Never felt any other symptoms but am very curious in knowing what this was I ingested. I would like a response if at all possible just for a piece of mind. Thanks

My mother bought a case of the G2 Gatorade that all I have been drinking this week. I've had bad stomach cramps and I have been in the bathroom a lot. Then I looked at an unopened bottle of Gatorade and noticed little flakes floating in it. That's when I put two and two together and I'm positive that this is what is making me sick.

On October 1st, 2009 we stopped at Petro Star(Sacramento,CA) and got two Gatorades in which while drinking we realized the drink didn't taste right. After that we noticed a white milky substance in the drink.

There is a foreign object floating in a bottle of gatorade that was purchased at the Sam's Club. I purchase these by the case. My 9 year old was the one who discovered it. He told me about it. The drink remains unopened and this nasty object is floating around in it. Curious

purchased 4 bottles of gatorade,and several other items on 3-5-04,daughter was on her 2"nd bottle when i opened one after chill and after a pretty good sized drink upon sitting bottle down this goo caught my attention..too late to spit it out,just hoped for the best and swore off the drink..this resembles mold,or maybe dark phlem...my daughter still had the ??on her face sunday when returning to big lots..assured her that she would have noticed if she had it in the others..asked mike,mgr if he could tell me what it was and if health risk,he only said dont know and offered to replace it,informed him not a gatorade fan after over 25 years,only want to know WHAT the gunk is..

the seal was intact and ok,but near as i can tell about 3 years old...mike didnt know if the product has any exp. date..guess thats why the product was half price..im not wanting anything but an unbiased test on product and, explanation as to why i got a special one..the upc code is 52000 24190 passion fruit, on bottle neck -ct727041221 then 20:08..would appreciate any info on what to do to find out if this is some crazy spitting in product or soy-mold etc..also think that each company should check into some type of quality control ,,or if necessary exp.date
