Would You Like a Kilogram of Sugar with that Water?

How obnoxious is it when you see the coolest product EVER next to the checkout line at the store, and make that last minute decision to buy it, but to your extreme disappointment, it sucks.  Yes? No?  Well it has happened to me multiple times unfortunately.  Am I just super naive, or is it the last minute decisions that throw me off my regular product evaluation process?  Here are 2 super sucky products that I have recently purchased….

Ice Breakers Ice Cubes Gum

When I first saw these at the gas station, I couldn’t help myself.  This gum was so unique, as each piece of is an individual cube, very similar to an actual ice cube, and even has little sparkly flavor crystals.  The shape was unrivaled and I had never seen anything like it before, so I immediately bought it.  Subsequent to my opening of the cute, little, colorful package, I popped a cube into my mouth and began to chew.  Despite my excitement, the tasty flavor was gone within less than 5 minutes and the consistency felt similar to chewing a small rock.  I was not impressed and angry that I wasted my money on such a terrible product.  Two weeks later, I bought the same product again.  And of course I regretted it.  The word “NEW” in big letters, the fancy fruity flavors and tremendously colorful package apparently gave me a new found hope.  Sincerely Disappointing.

Aquafina Plus+ Vitamins — Pomegranate and Yumberry

How delicious does Pomegranate and Yumberry sound?!?  I mean, it’s called Yumberry!  Well, its not yummy in the least bit.  At all.  For being flavored water with only 10 calories, I have no idea how they could make it so sugary,with almost a syrup consistency.  I was a huge fan of this brand’s other flavors, but after trying this particular, I have been turned off of the pretty bottle, elaborate flavors and healthy attributes.
