"Boxes of 6" ??

Weren't these always sold as boxes of 10 units each?


Good lord, this shrinkflation dystopia needs to end somehow. We are getting completely hosed with rising prices everywhere and on top of that we get insulted by paying the same prices on boxed goods that don't even have the same amount in them anymore.

The flavor of these was actually awesome, but I had a problem where the powder simply would not fully dissolve, so there would be chunks floating in the water. This was even worse because I put it in my carbonated water, and shaking it vigorously diminishes the carbonation, and I still had chunks after shaking it. So I used the packs I had but didn't buy them again. Not sure if this is a pervasive problem or not, but it was my one experience.

I would add the powder to a secondary container first with a bit of water to fully dissolve. Then I would add the mix to my carbonated water. I do the same with all of the powder drink mixes when using my sodastream.

I read that same thing online and tried it, but it stayed clumped together. I even used a spoon to try to smash the clumps against the edge of the glass to loosen them. At that point, I was like, "This is too much work." 😆

I imagine the title is wrong and you'll have to argue with customer service when they send 36 instead of 72. The single option shows 1 six-pack and the 6-pack option shows 6 of the 6-packs, so both are off by half

*6* boxes, 6 packs per box = 36 packs (so, same unit price for a smaller amount, which makes it a slightly better deal, IMO)

So is this any good with vanilla flavored ice cream (aka Root beer float).

I do a small amount of hot water from my espresso machine water dispenser then stir it before pouring it into the carbonated water. Works like a charm!
