Produce Review- Great Value Drink Enhancer (Grape)

I have been reading on the boards about people putting Mio and other flavor enhancers in their water to change it up a bit.  I thought to give it a try.  I found out that Mio was sold at WalMart and headed over there to see what the deal was.  I saw that WalMart made a similar produce so I bought 2 of those and one of the Mio.  Today I tried the WalMart brand in grape.  It was ok.  Not good not bad.  It is basically flavors the water so that is faintly sweet and grape.  There is a bit of sucralose.  I like regular water just fine and I like some flavors of Crystal Light.  This would be something for the middle.  Not plain, not sweet/tangy/sour.  I guess it does what it is supposed to do and if you didn't like the taste of plain water, I might help you drink more.  I like plain water, so I will probably use this up and move on.  The other two flavors have caffeine in them.  No I didn't read the ingredients and since both are labeled as "energy", I guess we know where the energy comes from.   I will give those a try earlier in the day sometime soon.

Judgement- ok for what it is...


P.S.  I was back on track today with my eating :)

Product Review- Torani Sugar Free Flavorings (Almond Roca)

I tried this new flavor today when I was trying the Syntrax Vanilla Bean Torte.  After a couple of sips of the protein, I knew I liked it a lot, so adding the flavoring was kicking it up a notch. It was subtle.  I put in 2 cap fulls, but I think I will try more next time.  It is good, but stronger might make it awesome.

Verdict- A

Product Review- Torani Raspberry Sugar Free Flavoring

I added this to a packet of vanilla protein.  It was wonderful.  I love the taste.  Just like raspberries!

Ruling- A+

Product Review- Torani Sugar Free Flavorings (Caramel and Hazelnut)

I hear tons on the message boards about the Torani and Da Vinci flavorings.  They are used to flavor tons of stuff and people rave about them.  I picked up 4 flavors at WalMart and have given two a try.  Both times was in Isopure Chocolate protein.  The first was caramel.  It was meh.  Just ok.  I don't know if I really like caramel other then when it is in a candy bar.  The hazelnut was much better.  I liked it a lot and it made the Isopure better.  I will enjoy using this flavoring when I want a change from just chocolate.

Score- Caramel  B-
          Hazelnut A
