lol they are much better now that I have mastered the straw part without spilling half of it before I got it in the pouch. I have only tried the one flavour Cherry Spike and I like it. I had one when I came home from the gym and it seemed to quench my thirst. I am not a fan of juice, mostly because of GERD but also because I feel like I could drink the whole bottle and not be less thirsty. Juice has so much sugar and flavour I have always watered it down.
So anyway I am addicted to clear drinks like Gatorade Ice, now Koolaid Sport and Fruite flavoured water.
I will try another flavour when I go grocery shopping this weekend and let you know how it goes.
Ingredients for the Koolaid Sport drink pouches:
Water, Glucose-Fructose, Sugar, Citric Acid, Soduim Citrate, Potassium Citrate, Natural Flavour
Four Flavours: Cherry Spike, Orange Edge, Arctic Berry, Extreme Punch

I'll try some too. None of the ingredients should cause me a single problem. (I have terrible problems with guar gum and carrageenan and locust beam gum...even acacia--but then they're all bean/legumes!) The KOOL AID ELECTROLYTE freezies look really good!!! I think I'm a blue Gatorade fan (I know, the stuff looks like either Toilet duck or Windex!) or the Strawberry Ice. I tend to make juice spritzers, too--or dilute it with water.

I'm fighting a flu bug and have been dozing (not sleeping) all day long, wheezing, sniffling, etc. I broke down and used my t.v. and watched "FEEL GOOD" movies and cranked up the tunes. Hopefully the noise will spook this bug out of me!
In typical hobbit habbit, random order, etc. et cetera:
--1L Gatorade
--a whole pot of UFO, on the rocks
--66 bing cherries (I just ate cherries all day long. You know that song, "99 Bottles of Beer? Well...I think I was doing it with cherries.)
--1 c. golden raspberries
--1 c. blueberries
--small fennel bulb (2 c.), 2 c. baby carrots (pre-cooking measurements)
--1 L No-chicken stock
--Lots of herbal tea, flavoured water, etc.
That's all folks.
Kate, IBS-D.

Eevry day lately has some hours of feeling horrible and some of feeling fine. It is so weird. Yesterday I was fine until 2 or so and today I woke up icky and felt okay about noon. I am still blowing a lot out of my nose and still have a congested cough so maybe all that snot is making me feel gross. I have to work all day tomorrow and need to feel okay the whole day!

I really hope to workout good on Friday and lift weights on Sat. Tomorrow I will do a lot of walking. (weather is to be cool too. I can't wait!)
