I remember seeing an ad for Gatorade recently that made me do a double-take. Lots of marketing these days make irresponsible or unreliable claims, so I wasn't sure if this was more of the same. It had two "scientists" talking about how they invented Gatorade to help a Florida university's football team.
Well, sure enough, that was true. I was reminded of the ad when I read that the creator of Gatorade (Dr. Robert Cade) recently passed away --
Dr. Robert Cade, UF Researcher Who Invented Gatorade, Dies At 80 - News Story - WFTV Orlando.
Just thought I'd share ... I can't really stand the stuff myself, but like pickle juice on a long road bike ride, sometimes you just need to replenish what your body has lost, and you really aren't concerned with flavor so much.
