Aerosole Caffiene.... More Dangerous Than You'd Think?

A new product that has been introduced in the convenience markets of Boston and New York is stirring up some controversy amongst the food and drug administration. The new product is called AeroShot and is a bullet sized container of powdered Vitamin B and Caffeine that you allow to dissolve on your tongue, and then is swallowed for an extra boost of energy. Many government officials are concerned that this product will make it into the college consumer's hands and become a tool to allow them to drink more which could potentially be very dangerous.  However this new product only contains about as much caffeine as a large Starbucks coffee, so many officials aren't concerned over Aeroshots, but others think that there are too many questions that have not been answered about this product, as it is the first of its kind. Yet, this product could be the first since 2004 to be banned from sale.
