labels should be explicit

i went to target to buy a blender for making fruit smoothies. while i was there, i was dying thirsty, so i bought a dasani plus water. when i picked it up, i read: vitamin enhanced flavored water beverage. two hours later, i finished it, and decided that i didn't really like it that much. it was a lot like fruit 20, which i also dislike. so then i'm reading the label again, and what the Fing F, there's guarana in it....natural caffeine. Fing A. if i had seen that, i never would have drank it this late at night, now i'm going to be up all night because they found it too challenging to label the bottle correctly. i find that unacceptable, and do not think it was my fault.

and on the upside. i bought new lip gloss/stick by almay, and love it love it. $7 and worth every penny. the color is so natural. that beats the pants off the nars product i was going to buy for $23. i'm so frugal.
