The taste is awful 😖

This item arrived on 1/16/2023 and it has an experation date of 1/10/2023. There is a no return policy. You would not expect to have an expired item shipped to you.

I take collagen for its many benefits and appreciate the innovation here with fizz tablets but for me, it falls short in a couple of areas as described below. Overall these are an option for travel unless you have any concerns about salt content or environmental impact. I would only recommend them for occasional use due to the salt. give it a 4 for product itself (taste, value, ingredients) but only a 3 for packaging as I prefer more conscientious containers.<br /><br />Thoughts:<br />--Cranberry is light and not one I would have guessed but it's pleasant. Since taste is subjective, take that how you want. I tasted more of the salty flavor myself and didn't find it too sweet. It reminds me more of the flavored waters like Aha, bubly, etc...a transparent flavor. Either way, I had no issues drinking it. And the smell is hard to describe. I didn't find it "fishy" per se and didn't have an aversion to it but if you find it off-putting, you could try drinking through a straw.<br />--Convenient travel tube with a tightly fitting lid forming a good seal.<br />--Different delivery of tablets as opposed to lugging your bulk sized powder container around or trying to make up your own carry bags.<br />--Non-gmo, gluten free is a plus.<br />--No clumps, no stirring needed<br />--hydrolyzed, wild caught collagen<br /><br />Other:<br />--First, hopefully buyers doublecheck ingredients before any purchase but want to point out this contains a lot of salt. It's the nature of the fizz but if you are watching salt intake, please be aware of this. As such, these would not replace my daily powder but would work for an occasional trip or outing, etc.<br /><br />--The bottle is not labeled for recycling potentially producing a lot of waste. These tubes contain 7 servings so regular use throughout the year creates plastic trash. If they changed the bottle to a recyclable one or biodegradable (even better) or maybe even bulk refill tabs in a recyclable package you can refill as needed that would increase the value in my opinion.<br /><br />--As other reviewers pointed out, it takes approximately 10minutes to completely dissolve.

Only ended up getting one which is good because it is disgusting. No returns either. Don’t waste your money!

Taste was weak and what was there tasted bad. Didn't look foward to drinking it.I will toss it.

This product does not have the best taste, not bad but not great. Experienced weird feeling and numbmess feeling in mouth after drinking. Tried again the next day and same wird feeling. The tablets were all broken when received and cannot return. Do not reccommend these tablets.
