1. I like them; they're yummy!
But pricey. I buy Juicy Juice and flavored seltzer and experiment with my own combinations at home! :bounce:

2. They sound good.
I would like to try some of their flavors. You don't find some of those in juice form.

3. This is true
I guess what I'm saying is I'll buy them occasionally, but not by the case or anything. I really like the tangerine, though! :bounce:

4. Excellent soda sub.
I'm a regrettably huge fan of the grapefruit, but they are not cheap.

Still, they're a better option when I'm out and about than a coffee drink.

I've found that if you let a can of juice defrost overnight, and you make the juice with seltzer water in small quantities (i.e. 1 cup seltzer to a third cup juice concentrate) it works just as well. The big difference is that the typical Izze flavors are not always available as juice.

We never get anything good like that down here.

8. Tried Them and Liked Them
I get Trader Joe's house brand more often, though; cheaper and just as tasty (especially the cranberry!).

13. I've tried them and I like them. "Switch" is also good
and usually a little cheaper in my experience ... http://www.switchbev.com/juice.php

21. I'm kind of surprised--I used to get them in Central OK
I looked at their product locator on their website, and I think it's very inaccurate. It doesn't list any stores in Oklahoma, though less than a year ago I bought it fairly regularly at one store in Norman and occasionally at another in OKC ...

Izze's good too, though, so if you can't find the Switch it's not the end of the world :D

15. I love izze's! we sold them in our Cafe in Austin back in 2003
one of the first to carry them. the guy just came in cold, gave us a taste test and I decided to carry them. LOVED THEM! They sold well after we had some tastings for free, the healthy aspect was a good selling point. Unfortunately, the guy eventually went broke, mismanagement I think. So we lost our distributor and the only other one would only sell in bulk quantities to grocery stores and gas stations. bastards.

long story, sorry. The short of it? I like them a lot and only buy them in small mom n pop places.
