• "Flavor sucks, no other way to put it."
• "Totally nasty tasting, but well worth it!"

Packaging

Pros:

• "This product on Amazon specifically has always arrived in good condition, like you bought it at the store."
• "The Subscribe and Save option is also amazing, we get a new box every 3-4 months so we're never out."
• "These individual packs are easy to carry in purse, bag, or even pocket."
• "Easy to throw a couple in my purse, desk at work, vehicle, makeup bag, etc so that I always have pain relief on hand."
• "I always keep a few in my wallet for emergencies away from home."
• "HANDY TO CARRY IN WALLET ALSO."
• "I keep three of these in my wallet at all times."

Cons:

• "I had never used these before and was surprised the powder was just folded up in wax paper."
• "But recently they changed their little envelopes to sealed bags of the stuff, so now you have to pay attention to where it is inside the bag before you rip it open and accidentally have it flying all over."
• "The product does get stuck on the tube packets."
• "The only draw back is the packaging."
• "Keeping a packet of this in your purse will require you to store it in some sort of sealed bag unless you like white powder all over your bag."
• "But the new packaging is not so great. It is harder to open and much, much harder to get the medicine out of the little packet."
• "I dislike the new individual travel packets -- the old 'rolling paper' wrappers were better."

Value

Pros:

• "good value for the price."
• "Glad to have them since they’re kinda hard to find in some areas."
• "Thanks Amazon for having them and not breaking my bank for them."
• "And it was about 2 bucks cheaper."
• "This specific Goody's costs less and gives you double the number of packets as that Mixed fruit one."
• "Buying it from Amazon makes it not only convenient but their competitive price also relieves the pain in my pocketbook."
• "These hit the target and price is right ✅️"

Cons:

• "You can buy it flavored too for a higher cost."
• "However, the last two times I ordered it they must have been stored in a very humid environment that made the powders stick together."
• "with shipping i ended up getting a headache getting a refund from never receiving it"
• "But if you think you have a headache, wait until you order and then receive the boxes crushed due to the plastic shipping bags."
• "Changing the package form that they came in was ok, Why did you have to change the goody medication itself. No longer works like it use to, and I should know, been taking them for years!"
• "I can't speak to the product itself because I'm leary to use the powders because the package was missing the manufacturer tamber preventive plastic wrapping around the box."
• "If, like me, you have serious migraines that come on at anytime, you won't be able to carry this with you as easily as the fruit ones that have the sealed packets."
