Is it legal in the US to sell something without telling you how much is inside? Seems insane |

So this is obviously not actually any type of inebriant, correct? I've read articles going all the way back to 2009 where researchers have been working on alcohol alternatives. But this is not it and is just marketing. Just zero proof tequila and gin with "Star Trek" slapped on the bottle, correct? |

Why would anybody bear to drink Tequila or Gin, if it's not for the buzz? |

Blind bags and all kinds of novelty items don’t have to tell you what’s inside/how much if they do a nifty trick called marketing it as a display/novelty and mark it as not for use/consumption |

I think this about anyone drinking any form of alcohol, it seems like the only potential upside is the social lube but this is just a skill issue if you need alcohol to be a functional human |

Some people like the taste. A lot of their use in drinks makes the drink have a great depth to taste. |

It doesn't even have the taste. I've tried non alcoholic bourbon, they replace the kick with a lot of cinnamon. It tastes like cinnamon and fake smoke flavor. If I hadn't seen the bottle I would have thought it was meant to be a steak rub. |

Non -alcoholic drinks really only serve 2 main purposes - to let kids think they're cool (my dad told me they used to do this with non-alcoholic beer when he was a kid) and to give to sober people at an event with alcohol. And I don't even know how much that second one is the case. Maybe it's just something people use in their cooking I don't know. |

1991 wants its comment back. Modern zero alcohol beers are actually good and more refreshing in hot weather without the alcohol. You can now buy craft brewery zero beers that are better. |

There's a local shop that sells non alcoholic spirits exclusively. The owners are all alcoholics. I've often wondered if it's healthy for them to drink it, even if doesn't contain any alcohol it seems like keeping he same sort of habits might trigger something in them. But it's not for me to judge. |
