Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought 3 packs of 4 (12 total counts) and when it arrived in a way over sized box with insufficient big bubble wraps, 2 packs (8 total counts) were scattered in the box and even the cardboard thing that's suppose to hold the 4 cartons together were torn which was suspicious already since even in really bad shipping and handling, the cardboard would not be ripped like that, it seems to have been ripped by a previous buyer! Nonetheless, I kept it and the first 2 cartons were ok and tasted pretty good. But on the 3rd carton, when I started drinking it I felt small chunks and had drank 2 sips before I thought better of it and tossed the rest of that carton out......too late! A few minutes later I felt like something was stuck just below my esophagus and all night long it slowly made its way down towards my stomach and I can still feel the tail end of it's effect in my stomach now, about 13 hours later! I've read a few reports here on Amazon of how the carton's cap were sometimes damaged allowing air to get in. So in the name of science, I went ahead and dissected a carton of the drink to see how that cap is attached to the carton. Looks like the carton is similar to one of those kiddy fruit drinks where you punch a straw into a semi-foil, but in the case of this carton, the semi-foil is about an inch in diameter and it gets punched open when you twist the cap that has plastic saw teeth, and that cap has to be somehow attached and sealed by some sort of glue to the outside surface of the carton. That cap can also conceivably punch through the semi-foil without rwisting it if someone pushes in hard enough, leaving the seal compromised without being seen. You can see how the semi-foil is still dangling inside the carton in my photo. Long story short, that seal is definitely a weak link but regardless of whether that caused my last drink to be spoiled or not, I cannot give this otherwise good tasting drink a good rating if it's hit or miss! Plus my entire package was suspect due to it being scattered out of it's 4-pack and it's 4-pack cardboard wrap was ripped in such a way that is NOT a result of seller shipping or handling but is a result of previous buyers handling, leaving me to believe it was part of a number of unwrapped 4-packs with the buyer returning what was left of that 4-pack after not liking it for whatever reason, and those returned unwrapped 4-packs were then resold!
