I opened a new bottle of body armor drink last night. ( i just purchased this drink a couple days ago from the grocery store ).Date on bottle was 2023, but I read that body armors are supposed to be good for 1 year after the date on bottle, because the bottle date for them is the manufacturing date. So according to web sites, it's not supppsed to be expired or rancid. When opening the bottle, it made a cracking sound, as bottles do when they have never been opened before. I took a huge dip and swallowed it fast, as I was trying to hurry to go to bed. The second I swallowed the sip, I tasted a horrible rancid/sour taste, and my stomach started burning immediately. It was instant. It was the same burn as you get when you swallow a " shot" of liquor, but even more intense. I instantly got nauseaus, and started burping. The burning was horrible in my stomach. I picked up the bottle, to check date, and I could smell a very potent, rancid type smell coming from it. It had the lid on, and the smell was still absolutely vile. I knew instantly something was very wrong. My stomach continued burning for 1.5 hours after I took the big sip, and when I woke up this morning, the entire right side of my stomach area hurts. I have sharp, aching pains in my right side. The pains have been occurring for about 2 hours now. I feel like my stomach is getting sick, and I have the feeling like I have to run to the bathroom in a minute. I'm getting the feeling that I'm about to have diareah. I'm worried because I've never drank/eaten anything that tasted and smelled so putrid. I don't know what happened to the drink. I did notice a clear/crystal/crusty type substance on the top of the bottle though after further inspection. I have not touched the drink anymore, and have not pouted out the liquid to see what it looks like. I talked to 2 nurses, and they told me if my symptoms progress to go to urgent care, to call the company and report, and to call the store I purchased it from, which is kroger. | Symptoms: Stomach Pain, Cramps, Nausea, Burping
