According to Google, 400 mg (~4 cups of coffee or 10 cans of soda) per day is when you run into health risks, while 1200 mg in a short time span is overdose territory.
Cool, I’ll look for it. I haven’t bought soda in many years. More interested in coffee. I still don’t know if “breakfast coffee” has more or less than “half caff”.
Breakfast blend is unspecific, but it’s a mix of normal, not decaf coffee, aimed at being smooth, not too bold or acidic etc. Half caff is a blend of decaf and normal beans, so breakfast will have approximately twice as much caffeine. Light/dark roast and specific coffee bean type used will vary the caffeine levels.
I should have specified I specifically mean Folgers. I can see that the way you make it will affect the caffeine level. But they should still specify a amount for if it is made in a “standardized” way. That at least lets you compare things by their labels, while standing there in the store. Folgers only says their half calf is “darker” than breakfast, which I assume just means the flavor.

If you’re drinking 10 cans of soda a day you got much bigger problems than caffeine.
True. But I could see some people reaching 400 mg with like two coffees, an energy drink, and a couple cans of soda.
Too bad they don’t list caffeine on the nutrition facts. Who knows how much you get.
Caffeine content has been listed for years on drinks, just not in the nutrition box.
For what, soda? Looking at a Mountain Dew right now and it says 54mg caffeine. It’s next to the nutrition facts but not in the box itself

Yeah that’s flavour.
