144 of one flavor. As a blind buy, this seems pretty risky. Pineapple Passion may be terrible tasting and then you are giving away the other 143 to someone. It also might be pretty tasty. For those who know they like this or aren't really picky about flavors, this seems like a good buy.
I wonder on their reasoning to use cane sugar, Monk Fruit, and Stevia in the first place. Seems strange as this could have been a good use for keto or diabetics if they had just excluded the 2G of sugar (yeah, I am aware that 2 grams is relatively small but for some, it could make a difference for those trying to stay w/in 20g NET carb/day) in the first place.

For flavor. A small bit of sugar added to monk fruit and stevia really makes it taste more familiar. It's helps remove the bitterness that some people don't like about stevia. It's a very small amount of sugar added in 1g and that's negligible. The other gram comes from the coconut water
A little like Cactus Cooler, but with more acidity. My brother mentioned it, and this may be harsh, tasted slightly like vomit. It was our least favorite of the 3 flavor pack.
Note that these are very sweet and I'm a bit of a super taster. I mixed one packet into my 40oz hydro flask and it was still a bit too sweet for my liking. Also, hold your breath while doing so because that artificial sugar goes straight into your sinuses where you can uncomfortably taste it. I'm pretty happy with the other two flavors of watermelon and berry lemonade, but pineapple is always the last to be used.
Side deal is a sister site to Meh.com which is a well known and beloved peddler of cheap crap daily. Meh.com was made by the same people who did Woot.com of which Amazon purchased. I've been a member of Meh.com for years for their free shipping that also applies to their sister sites. Side deal is legit. Is the cheap crap they sell legit? Well, they're honest about the descriptions. Getting something at 70% off might mean you have to consume it faster if you are concerned about best by dates.

My roommate and I split an order of these, and there is definitely an ingredient that gives it a very strong, not so great smell and taste. It doesn't bother me all that much but I could definitely see how it would be a dealbreaker for many. I haven't yet figured out what the ingredient is though, maybe turmeric? On another note, these made my roommate projectile vomit followed by 10 minutes of intense dry heaving within minutes of drinking it, so considering both of these things, I'm currently of the opinion that these are a "not so slick deal". I'm definitely interested to hear if anyone else ends up having a similar reaction as my roommate 🤮
Got mine the other day and I'm pretty happy with them. They're decent tasting with a more mild pineapple flavor. They do have a distinct taste that I imagine is from the sweetener blend but it's not any worse than other drink powders I've had.

These haven't made anyone in my household sick but I personally have gotten sick in the past from drinking too much of an electrolyte drink mix. Not sure why but something about them upsets my stomach if I consume too much too quickly. Perhaps that's what happened to your roommate?
Got mine today, tried one(of course). Pretty darn good. So good I ordered another one. It does have a fruity after taste that stays with you, but it is a good after-taste 5grams of carbs is pretty darn good also!!
