Logan Paul’s Prime responds to backlash over energy caffeine levels
Logan Paul and KSI’s Prime has defended the levels of caffeine in its beverages after facing a backlash. It comes after health experts called on the US Food and Drug Administration to investigate the energy drink company. A 12 oz can of Prime, which was founded by YouTube stars Logan Paul and KSI, contains 200mg of caffeine, equivalent to about half a dozen Coke cans or nearly two Red Bulls. The brand released a statement to People on July 11, saying: “PRIME Energy, sold in a can, dropped in 2023 and contains a comparable amount of caffeine to other top selling energy drinks, all falling within the legal limit of the countries it’s sold in.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The spokesperson for the brand said that the drink “complied with all FDA guidelines” prior to hitting the market and indicated on the packaging that PRIME energy drinks are “not made for anyone under the age of 18.” “As a brand, our top priority is consumer safety, so we welcome discussions with the FDA or any other organisation regarding suggested industry changes they feel are necessary in order to protect consumers,” they added. Earlier this week, New York Senator Charles Schumer urged the FDA to launch a probe into Paul’s energy drink, which became an overnight sensation when it launched last year. “One of the summer’s hottest status symbols for kids is not an outfit, or a toy – it’s a beverage,” the Democratic senator said in a letter to the FDA. “But buyer and parents beware because it’s a serious health concern for the kids it so feverishly targets." Prime has become a phenomenon since being launched in 2022, to the extent it’s sold for ridiculous prices, made one shop in Wakefield go viral, and even been reviewed by foul-mouthed chef Gordon Ramsay. The collaboration between Paul and KSI (real name Olajide “JJ” Olatunji) was announced back in January last year, with the pair just recently touring Munich, Barcelona, Copenhagen and Oslo to promote the drink.

Food delivery driver baffled after being slammed for doing his job 'too quick'
A food delivery driver has taken to TikTok with claims his company marked the trip as "too short" to complete. In the viral clip, that's racked up almost 4 million views, Josh (@BikingDC) recorded himself collecting a coffee order from the vendor, before delivering it to a customer two blocks away. “Quick trip,” Josh jokes to the customer, who responded: "Yeah man, it’s hard to get out of the office." As Josh rides away, his phone shows a notification that read: "Can not complete delivery … The trip was too short to complete." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter "Imagine doing your job so fast they app tells you to slow down," the TikToker wrote as the caption. "Homie ordered down the street because he cant leave post and i can respect that … but like i still need paid. [sic]." The footage was flooded with comments from baffled users, with one saying "They really need to fix that." Another joked: "Bro does his job so good that app can't process." "It’s probably because he bought normal delivery instead of priority so he has to take his time delivering it," a third theorised. @bikingdc Imagine doing your job so fast they app tells you to slow down 😂 Homie ordered down the street because he cant leave post and i can respect that … but like i still need paid 😅 #uber #ubereats #doordash #delivery #fooddelivery #bike #bicycle #washingtondc It comes after a separate food delivery driver hit out at their customer for giving a $5 (£3.90) tip. "I just wanna say, this is a nice house for a $5 tip," the driver says in footage captured on the video doorbell. In response, the customer responds: "You're welcome." The worker didn't take to the response too well, and yelled "f*** you," before heading back to his car. "I say 5$ is good since it was a 20$ order...seriously, what do they expect more than what the order is," one person wrote under the viral clip, as another chimed in: "Did he expect a 100 dollar tip on a 20 dollar order?"
