New Kool Aid Singles

[PrincessMommyof2]

Has anyone tried them yet? I cannot find them in any of our stores yet. I'd like to take them along instead of Crystal Light, I cannot get the family to enjoy any of the CL flavors.

I did see them in Target, they aslo came in ds' lunchable (one of the pizzas).

We have use the kool aide and the country time lemonade singles as well as the Crystal light. I don't give my kids diet stuff so I am thrilled about these! My dd's like the lemonade and the fruit punch flavor.

They are larger then the CL because they have sugar but they are still small enough to carry around. They also displace more water from the water bottle so spill or drink some water first. FWIW we use 1/2 the tube to make it a lighter flavor since its pretty sweet. So I can use one single to make both my dd's an 8oz drink.

Target has them as does BJ's but my supermarket dosen't have them yet either.

My DD12 likes to take them in her lunch but each packet is only made to flavor an 8oz. water so you either have to like the lighter taste (as most water bottles are 16.9oz. or use 2 packets in the big bottles....a very expensive option. My daughter drinks half the water and puts Kool Aid in the remainder.

I bought some at Target but I see that they just got them at my WalMart Supercenter for $2.50 a box.

Where can you find these? I've struck out everywhere I've looked!

I saw them at Walmart. They are by the Crystal Light.

My DD loves these! I can get them at walmart and my grocery store here. They have cherry, fruit punch, and grape flavors here. I bought her some of the 8oz bottles of water to go with it.

My son takes one to school when he brings his lunch because he always takes a bottle of water with his lunch. I like the lighter flavor in a larger glass of water or water bottle since it is not as sweet. We've gotten the grape, cherry and fruit punch flavors. We also have the Crystal Light lemonade, but we haven't use that one in a while.

My kids love them and I bought them at Wal Mart

 

[PrincessMommyof2]

Thanks everyone!!! I'll head up to Walmart and look some to try out before the trip!!!

We first got them in lunchables and my nephew loves them we also found them at P&C

 

[JERSEYGIRLINSI]

We have purchased and used the Kool Aid fruit punch flavor, and we love it. It is only 30 calories for that one pouch, and we didn't find it to be too sweet at all. This is a great way to get your kids to drink more water wtihout them complaining about the taste. We pay $2.00 for the 16 pouch pack here in Ny at Pathmark.

Has anyone seen the country time PINK lemonade ones? I saw ads for it but can only find the regular lemonade ones. My kids all drink the pink country time at home this would be great if I could find it!

 

[XYSRUS]

I like them and all but would prefer to see them made with invisble Kool-ade. Then there's no staining of anything. I have little kids and like them to be independent but not at the cost of my counters and rugs!

I saw them in Target, and DS had them in his lunchables.

We do plan on getting them before our trip, so the water is a bit more drinkable.

We found them at walmart yesterday apparently they come in orange grape or cherry.
I also got these really good Nestea singles and they are even better and you can add them to 8oz of water.
My daughter tried the orange koolaid and loved it plus most bottles of water here are 500ml/2cups which is perfect.
I have a bunch of crystal light/nestea/koolaid packets now for our trip in 10 days.
Where can you find the Country Time ones??? I have never seen these.
So cool....beats plain water any time.

We have not tried the Kool Aid Singles yet, but I picked them up at our local Kroger grocery store last week for our upcoming trip in June. We got the grape flavor, and also discovered there is some sucralose in it(same as Splenda). My kids don't mind the taste of Splenda, so at least I can get them to drink water and know they are not having too much sugar!

 

[mollyseven]

yeah honestly I will probably limit the kool aids but my kids mainly drink milk...at each meal including breakfast and only have minimal other drinks. We don't drink any juice because of the sugar content and the blood sugar raising issues. We have diabetes in our family and know that juice is a big no-no so we don't risk it.
If there is a choice I would always choose sugar over splenda/aspartame etc. and would give the kids reg. pop over diet anytime.
Kool-aids contain chemicals and sugar.
Also about the diet drink stuff. I agree but have to say knowing some things I do...there are some chemicals in the kool-aid that are no better than the splenda. The problem is there haven't been long term studies done yet on the effects of any of these chemicals...they very well could be the sacarin of the future. I don't doubt it actually.
That said I am of the totally do what I say not what I do variety as I drink crystal light daily. I just don't give it to my kids. Nice.

 

[Lovemy3babes]

Good tip! I think I'll pick some of these up.

Do they make any of these single things that don't have artificial sweetners in them?
