@Fullmetal2255 There are worse things you could drink than pure cane sugar

@Arkana @Fullmetal2255 doesn't even have dyes, possibly more healthy than human energy drinks!

This is 100% trolling for clicks though, dude knew what he was doing

@Vo @Arkana @Fullmetal2255 I wouldn't even give this to birds, there is no nutritional value.

water, sucrose, citric acid, fruit and vegetable extracts for color, sodium benzoate (preservative), potassium sorbate (preservative)'

@Zettour @Vo @Arkana @Fullmetal2255 I filled a hummingbird feeder on a shepherd's hook with this stuff once.

Didn't get any hummingbirds.

Got a lot of ants.

@Zettour @Arkana @Fullmetal2255 Well yeah especially when you can make your own in a few minutes, at healthier levels of sugar. AFAIK hummingbirds use nectar for energy, but eat insects for protein/nutrients.

When people make the sugarwater too strong (or buy shit like this whether for convenience or out of ignorance), it can be like a hyperstimulus. They won't look for flowers as much, which hurts the ecosystem. Like feeding any wildlife really.
