Propelled by Propel

What is it with this “fitness drink” that makes you want to down a bottle it every five minutes. I think they’ve put an addictive chemical in it that makes you crave it fortnightly. I’m hooked on the stuff. It makes drinking a bunch of water easier than just chugging a glass of H2O. Wal-Mart knows the stuff is addicting. They have it out in the “falling prices” aisle all of the time. It’s always $2.97

So what’s good and what’s not so good? The new Propel calcium flavors are okay. I don’t mind the Mixed Berry or the Mango. I have heard mixed reviews about the Mandarin Orange. Some claims it tastes like baby aspirin. I don’t mind the taste of baby aspirin so I don’t mind the Mandarin Orange. There’s always one of the original flavors, Lemon, but I grow tired of it quickly. I can drink the Kiwi-Strawberry but it’s a last resort. I stick mostly with the Berry, Peach, Black Cherry. I stay away from the Melon (yuck!) and Grape (too sugary tasting).

Right now, I’m downing a Lemon Propel. I don’t drink pop or soda anymore. Have you seen the studies about soda even diet soda’s link to weight gain? For me, it’s either propel or lemonade. I don’t do caffeine or coffee either. Accuse me of not having enough variety in my life, but I’ll still be happy avoiding the Coke & Pepsi products. Oh, by the way, there are 10 different flavors of Propel, now that’s variety!
