Headshot! Energy bar for gamers
Mountain Dew and Red Bull just isn't enough for today's serious gamers. Now they need specially marketed energy supplements to keep them in the fragging zone. Enter Uncommon Loot and Headshot; the candy bar specifically created for gamers.With 100 mg of Guarana, Headshot could pack a serious punch considering that your average bottle of Bawls has approximately 80mg of everyone's favorite nervous system stimulant. Uncommon Loot will be releasing the product to gaming centers first and will eventually make it available on their website.
We'll be sure to bring word of Headshot again after the first professional gamer is kicked out of competition for crushing and snorting his candy bar.

100mg's of Guarana?
What's this made of, Berry Bonds' urine?

Guarana is a plant extract that provides a unique, fruity taste. However, the plant extract is not that rich in caffeine.
"In addition to other chemicals, the guaraná plant contains caffeine (sometimes called "guaranine"), theophylline, and theobromine. Water extracts of the guarana plant are central nervous system stimulants due to the caffeine content. Energy drink manufacturers typically add synthetic caffeine or caffeine derived from coffee decaffeination."
Guaranine, however, is a chemical in the extract that is identical to caffeine. 100mg of that, perhaps?

It is very distasteful to use the image of FPS_Doug without his permission. FPS Doug would never eat this bar! Please remove the image!

The character fpsdoug does not in ANY WAY support this product!
