Walmart has the 10 cent ENVELOPES ala Kool-Aid too... a better buy. I
think. I have some ..unsweetened.....10 for a dollar. The flavor is
tolerable.

But they may have limited the flavors as previously noted.

I can never figure out the proper amount of no-cal sweetener to add :-(

The pre-sweetened no-cal stuff I bought is not bad. Cherry tastes like
cherry kool-ade, peach tastes like anonymous pleasant fruit, peach ice
tea tastes like kerosene or similar, and lemon ice tea tastes like bland
lemon-stuff.

All things considered, worth the price. I'll buy more when I run out.

Yet not nearly as good as original Kool Aid.
