New Fruit2O Formula

09 Oct 2008

For the last year and a half, I've been hooked on Fruit2O flavored water. Replacing carbonated sodas with Fruit2O was one factor in helping me lose all my weight last year. It has zero calories, isn't carbonated, and tastes great. I've been buying it from Sam's Club by the case.

In September 2008 I noticed they changed the label design and added a "More Fruit Flavor!" blurb on the bottle. When I got it home and had my first sip, I almost spit it out. All of the flavors I loved (Grape, Tropical Fruit, Cherry and Peach), had been replaced by a dreadful new flavor that can only be characterized as "plastic". I don't know what they did, but they've taken a great thing and replaced it with a cheap imitation. Time to look for an alternative I guess. I think Sam's sells something similar from Nestle, so I may have to give that a try.

UPDATE 11/3/2008: I think I've found my replacement. Aquafina has a line of flavored water called "Flavor Splash". I like all four flavors, so I'm stocking up.

    I am right there with you! I’ve been noticing thet Fruit2o is harder and hard to find, but they were the best. I dug it because it tasted great, and had the lowest sodium (5mg)!! Now they’ve septupled it to 35!!!!! And it also has a bitter aftertaste if I’m eating with it.

    I hope they bring back the classic and in a hurry too!!
