Fucking right it does!
I went to the source http://www.pauls.com.au
Sent them an email which stated:
Questions / Comments: To solve an age old argument, does your pauls iced
> coffee contain caffeine?
> Not breaka or ice break just the basic pauls iced coffee.
and the response I got is
Pauls Iced Coffee contains 13mg of caffeine per 100mls.

Nah i think ill stick to my Pepsi and caffinated mints :)
I got to say that Iced Coffee in Darwin is just this thing.. that Darwin people do.. it was kind of weird when I moved here how popular it was. But hey I love the stuff!
omg pepsi why dont you just slit your own throat :shock:
Har, i think i should run u over in my dads 4wd....
hehe thatll teach u to talk about Pepsi that way :"P
OMFG I can't believe ANYONE drinks Paul's Iced Coffee .... B L E H ... try some Farmers Union Iced Coffee and you would never drink that rancid UHT tasting NT crap again :D
Yeah Pepsi before Coke but more often than not I'm drinking Coke cause that's what I happen to pickup or see first :) That is when I'm drinking soft drink.
Sif water isn't the bestest drink.

As long as none of you drink the diet versions. It contains aspartine which actually can kill you, slowly. We found out cos theres a guy who used to be at work who drinks a litre of it a day, easily.

maybe that why he died a litre is a bit much
o and pepsi is foul it tast like flat coke :!:
No he left didnt die. the doctor told him to stop drinking so much. 1 L a day isnt much, just three cans per day. I know people who drink more.
BTW I am about to go out and run a shop again and last time I was there I wouldnt buy pepsi. It would sit there for ages. I would get rid of 20 cases of coke to every one of pepsi and that normally was when the fridges werent restacked.
Seriously some of the drinking and eating habits down here are so screwed. I mean what's the thing with people buying Ice cream which is so popular, especially when we're all freezing our butts off wearing thick-ass jackets.
Hey mate not to put you off but I have the overhead fans going and are sitting here ina set of shorts. nothing else. I call home (melb) every no and then (actually my folks call me all the time) and complain how cold it is.
sif drink any other ice coffee than Farmers Union. Nectar of the gods. Fixer-upper of the hungover.
Would never bring another to my lips...
Yes aspartane when broken down contains methanol and a few other nasties.. which it would be good if i rememberd right now.. basically it's a carcinogen. But how much farkin aspartane is in a can of coke? Not enough to make a difference I'd say. I drink diet versions as well as the normal ones.
And what's wrong with flat coke? :)
bah, you get fat off pauls AND farmers union, drink FEELGOOD milk, 99.5% fat free, good shit. The iced coffee anit great cause no sugar means coffee taste, but teh chocolate is the shizat
Why would we want to drink teh chocolate shizat you crazy man?
Anyway Big M used to be my fav choco drink.. but I think I heard they changed the name? Rush is great but it's pretty rich which is not good if you're feeling sick. Anyways.. Mmmmmmmmm....
You're all a bunch of girls - Red Bull all the way!!
sif Red Bull.. Black Stallion or [V] :) I'll drink just about any energy drink though.. But that sprite shit is disgusting.. still drink it but it's crap.
Ok Spero i bow down before thee in public next time we meet
But ask ure contact at Pauls why they can sell a product that contains caffeine but not label it as such. Simply putting "contains coffee" is not a very good package presentation of a potentially ill health causing substance (allergy)
Even Coke and Pepsi have to label thier containers with "contains caffeine" and simply "contains coke/pepsi essence". Other manufacturers and labeling conventions state that any substance that can or does react with the human body (stimulant, suppresent etc).
Either way ill admit in this case i was wrong :)
Well played fair maiden
Till next time we lock horns in mortal combat
Ohhhhhh no....i've got one for you....have a litre of chocolate milk and two red bulls!!! Then see how hyper you get....that much sugar and caffine...just ask scypher how crazy he was...but it was damn funny. :lol: He had crazy cs skills also...so it must be good. :)
what's wrong with fat :P
Eater - Ignoring all the people who have hijacked my post :P

Black Stallion + Coke = Passiona on steroids :)
and yet noone has mentioned Mountian Dew...hmmm something is wrong with this forum :P

mind you, I'd be just as interested in Pauls' response to the lack of notification of caffiene.
hAVE a good old scoffe. i grwwwew up with those damns ads nts owns
whats this grew up crap Wortel, your *still* growing up :P
Yes Yes chocy milk mmmmmmm
Big M is good and so is the Pura stuff :)
Because Meph, Im still yet to see this law.
Me and Paul went to ACCC site and found shit all.
I looked in their search engine for caffeine even and there was no laws on it.
As for my opinion on it, look at a jar of nescaffe nowhere on it does it say it contains caffeine. It only says it contains coffee beans?
Make Sense?
Nope
P.s EOS ya didnt have to go all public apology. I was trying to keep your identity a secret whilst letting the people who knew we were having huge arguments(nice ones :P) about it.
I guess that makes you a stronger person then most of us :)
ummmm. we dont get big M here idjits. I remember it from melb though

(i may whinge alot for a bit but always shall i admit my error)
Meph am clever :P
SperO, you just weren't looking in *quite* the right place.

In this Standard -
caffeine means all caffeine present from whatever source in a formulated caffeinated beverage.
formulated caffeinated beverage means a non-alcoholic water-based flavoured beverage which contains caffeine and may contain carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins and other substances, including other foods, for the purpose of enhancing mental performance.
one day quantity in relation to formulated caffeinated beverage, means the maximum amount of that food that should be consumed in one day in accordance with the directions specified in the label.
the above is from http://www.foodstandards.gov.au/foodstandardscode/standard264.cfm there :P
this http://www.foodstandards.gov.au/foodstandardscode/standard12/standard123.cfm link also helps
far as I can see, consumer affairs only requires you to advise of the presence of caffiene in cola or water based drinks with added caffiene. Milk based drinks simply aren't mentioned...

u guys need Moove! which comes in choc, strawberry, caramel, ice coffee. they used to have white chocolate, i was told its still bein sold. this stuff is the best, its fresh milk, unlike alot of the other brands.
i know the sydney folk get it, and maybe melb.
Mooves Strawberry was pretty good. Was one of the only good things to come from the ACT.
Vanilla Big M sucks, giveaways today at train station HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE. And Now I got funny feely gut.
