Vitamin Water - Page 2

Ibanez · 03-28-2007, 08:18 PM

Ive only had fruit punch, it tasted really watery to me. I guess ill trie formula 50 or kiwi-strawberry next time :/

dta06 · 03-28-2007, 08:22 PM

peach-mango > other flavors

dragonsfan · 03-28-2007, 09:09 PM

im a huge fan of the formula 50

FP Laxer009 · 03-28-2007, 09:41 PM

i love vitamin water--especially the dragonfruit one

Lax4life528 · 02-28-2008, 07:46 PM

Vitamin water tastes so good. I like XXX and dragonfruit the most.

HVlaxa7 · 02-28-2008, 08:04 PM

i drink the orange kind everyday at lunch

chucktownattack · 02-28-2008, 08:09 PM

Necroposters!

It's alright. Regular water is better anyways. Propel beats both Gatorade and Vitamin Water.

WinnytheSully · 02-28-2008, 08:13 PM

I can't believe I'm the first person to say Focus is their fav. flavor

boxpimp · 02-28-2008, 08:14 PM

isnt it susposed to be really expensive?? and is it helthy enough to make it worth it?? i just drink water...

oh and everyone who is saying that they will just stick with gatorade, how is there even a comparisson? isnt the point of this water to be good for you where as gatorade just has a crap load of sugar?

laxmann1993 · 02-28-2008, 08:43 PM

I like Orange and XXX.

Favs.
Fruit Punch
Lemonade
Dragonfruit
Strawberry Kiwi
Orange
XXX

navylax161 · 02-28-2008, 09:34 PM

formula 50, fruit punch, and the jackfruit one are the best

pole15 · 02-28-2008, 11:22 PM

It's just a better tasting version of Gatorade and Powerade. There's like 35+ grams of sugar per bottle.

A $1.39? It's not expenisve, I don't think it is atleast.

I like them all, my favorite is probably jackfruit guava. I drink 1 or 2 dragonfruits almost everyday at school.

kevidinho · 02-28-2008, 11:30 PM

if you buy at costco its less than a dollar per bottle but then you dont get some of the best flavors like jackfruit and xxx

Yea, that's what sucks. When they sell in the cases it's just like, "basic" flavors. But you can sometimes find them on sale for a dollar. I usualy buy mine at an organic food store, for $1.39, at the time, when I found them there, it was the cheapest, now alot of places dropped to about that, I haven't seen lower unless on sale or 2fer deals, etc..

laxman 9990 · 02-29-2008, 12:44 AM

i cant believe nobody said raspberry apple, its the dark red one and it is so good

well think about it. 1 or 2 a day for 180 days (im only counting school)

that adds up to be a large sum of money.
thats about $500

i wont lie though, dragonfruit is the best flavor they have. i am going to stick to the new G2 dring though, they have a nice taste and are just plain good.

itsthatkid · 02-29-2008, 01:07 AM

Boo vitamin water. Gatorade lime and berry rain all the way!

TOP SH3LF · 02-29-2008, 01:10 AM

I was basically a Vitamin Water junkie for the past two years, but now I am on that G2 from gatorade. The fruit punch tastes like kool-aid and the grape is bomb too, the orange is still pretty good when its the only flavor left.

LaxiconDevil · 02-29-2008, 01:13 AM

I guess I'm the only one who really dislikes formula fifty. Whoever said no one mentioned focus, its kiwi strawberry, same stuff. I like the citrus (yellow) and the acai pomegranate (XXX). As for the cost of like $500 bucks, does anyone drink a bottle or two a day? There's two and a half servings per bottle. I can and often do drink a bottle a day or so but two is legitimately unhealthy...there is a lot of sugar.

MACDADDY · 02-29-2008, 01:18 AM

if you drink more than 1 bottle of water a day or just in the house, you are getting ripped off. its the same stuff as tap water, just with minerals for taste.

LaxIzKool · 02-29-2008, 01:32 AM

darn you guys now i have to go and buy xxx and other flavors sound pretty good!!!

southernlaxguy2 · 02-29-2008, 03:27 PM

everyone knows XXX pomegranite is the best

we're not allowed to sell vitamin water at my school any more (we have a huge contract with pepsi and i guess vitamin water is owned by coke now) so now we have g2 and snapple antioxidant water. the snapple stuff is pretty good but the orange and purple g2 taste like jello (there's nothing wrong with that though) and the red tastes like medicine

LaXdunwoodyLaX · 02-29-2008, 05:16 PM

xxx, formula 50, essentials, be ralexed, focus, endurance...

ccslax6 · 02-29-2008, 05:21 PM

Have you seen the powerade commercial where it interviews the people drinking vitamin water and it takes like 400 sit-ups or 900 jumps or something to work off the calories of vitamin water? Is it true?

Hounds4life · 02-29-2008, 05:37 PM

i like all of them but XXX is good and so is fruit punch and dragonfruit

laxjam16 · 02-29-2008, 05:42 PM

New flavor that's good is Charge -- Lemon Lime

yes it has to be true or else it would be illegal to advertise something like that.

navylax161 · 02-29-2008, 10:03 PM

the $1.39 a day will add up, but same could be said if youre a gatorade-aholic. those people who said that its just water with flavors in it, why dont you just make it yourself?

there was a discussion about this.
http://www.lacrosseforums.com/showth...advertisements

Basically, all the advertisements make the product seem better than it really is, like the burger advertisements for MacDonalds or Burger King, they are always so perfect, but when you actually get it, it looks disgusting. Everyone does this, so its generally accepted and not illegal.

BLUEJAYSFAN9 · 02-29-2008, 11:04 PM

How is the orange G2? Sorry if this is like off topic lol

LaxIzKool · 02-29-2008, 11:16 PM

gah i just had xxx, delicious!!!!!!!!!

I only pay a $1.25 in school. And it's gooooood...so it's worth it.

laxnguitar402 · 02-29-2008, 11:48 PM

See, I like all of them that I've tried, but if I had to ranke them, XXX would be near the bottom.

what is wrong with you. JK, but XXX is too awesome.

Live4It · 03-01-2008, 07:31 PM

I like it, as I said I like all that I've tried, it's just not one of my favorites, I actually have a XXX in my fridge right now, along with about 10 other assorted vitamin waters.

CrakerJak · 03-02-2008, 07:50 PM

Vitamin water isn't exactly good for you. Putting those artificial sweeteners into your body and all that sugar into your body everyday can take a serious toll. Their main sweetener I believe is Crystalline Fructose. Which is about 80% fructose 20% glucose which is even worse for you than high fructose corn syrup. Drinking it every day can easily increase the resistance of insulin in your blood cells. It also has a bunch of calories, a bunch of sugar. It's just not good for you.
