New packaging, changed the ingredients, inferior product, shame on you Coco Hydro!!
I have been using this product for many years now and have always been satisfied with it. After my last order I noticed that the packaging had changed so I read over the list of ingredients to ensure that the ingredients hadn't changed also. Sadly, they have. The old Coco Hydro that I used to order had 326mg of potassium per tablespoon. The new package has 214mg per tablespoon. That's 33% less potassium per tablespoon. I also noticed that the new formula has the addition of what's termed "Hydroboost" which is composed of potassium phosphate, calcium citrate, magnesium phosphate, magnesium citrate, and citric acid. It appears that, in order to cut corners, they decreased the amount of actual coconut water and simply added the minerals back in in supplemental form. Also, the dextrose is no longer listed as "non-gmo dextrose", but simply "dextrose". It's always sad to see a company that has a good product, cut corners in an effort to bolster their bottom line, and this appears to be exactly what's happened with Coco Hydro. Shame on you Coco Hydro. I will be looking for another brand of coconut water.
