Red Bull defeats Monster

There has always been a rivalry between all energy drinks. Two big competitors in the energy drink argument are Red Bull and Monster. Personally Red Bull is my favorite and Monster is my least favorite.
There are many reasons why I like Red Bull way more than Monster. The number one reason I like Red Bull is the taste. It tastes a lot better than Monster, which isn't even competition for the taste of Red Bull. Although there are many different flavors of Monster, unlike the two types of Red Bull. Some disagree, though, like Blake W., 8th, who said, "Monster [is better] because it tastes better, good aftertaste." Dominic D., 7th, also likes Monster. He said, "My faves are Assault, the green one, and the M-80." In my opinion, Red Bull is better tasting than Monster. Even though there is more variety in flavors that don't usually taste so good with Monster, Red Bull just centralizes their company to two drinks (Original Red Bull and Red Bull Cola) that taste great.
Another reason I like Red Bull is the size of the can. They're the perfect size to drink and not get sick, unlike the big cans of Monster. One down side to the small cans of Red Bull is you don't get exactly what you pay for. "You get more for what you're paying for," said Blake about Monster. Even though they both cost around $2 a can, the size in cans are very different. You almost get twice as much in a normal can of Monster, which is around 16 oz., than you get in the standard eight ounce can of Red Bull. But it's just too much sometimes.
All in all, a lot of people like Red Bull and a lot like Monster, but my opinion is that Red Bull is the best. So if you ever can’t decide between Red Bull and Monster, go with the Red Bull.
