Is there a difference between Gatorade and Powerade?!


Question: Is there a difference between Gatorade and Powerade!?
I've been drinking Gatorade longer than Powerade but some of the flavors of both taste exactly a like!. Like the fruit punch and the lemon lime for example!. Are these sports drinks competing or something!? Its exactly like how Burgerking and Mcdonalds is and KFC and Popeyes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Gatorade seems a bit better calorie/sodium-wise and Powerade a bit better on vitamins, taste-wise I find them about the same!.

They taste pretty much the same, but Powerade and Gatorade have different ingredients!. Powerade is more related to Red Bull and Gatorade is a thirst quencher!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

there's no difference big enough to matter!. one might use red number 24 coloring and the other red number 27, other than that just the name and parent company!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

They are close to the same but i don't get i you can't tell the difference between Burger Kind and McDonalds!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
