WAT-AAH! Review and Giveaway

07 September 2009

When I got the 4 bottles of WAT-AAH! in the mail, my kids would not leave the package alone. They were attracted to the bold colored packaging. So I chilled the WAT-AAH! and let them choose which bottle each wanted. I was ready for the comments about no flavor, it is not sweet, add something to it. But was really surprised when I heard "It's so refreshing" and "Now that cools me off" Yeah, my kids are all into the grown up sayings.

But later I expected for them to come down from it's new to it's just water. NO! Dinner and they wanted the WAT-AAH! instead of tea we were having. And the next day the let down of "what there is no more WAT-AAH! in the fridge?" Well, I am glad to know they were happy drinking water than the sugar and preservatives in so many other kid friendly drinks. I am sad that I can not buy WAT-AAH! where I live.

I found that the moms behind WAT-AAH are in favor of taxing soft drinks. While I agree that soft drinks are a major part of the obesity problem, I don't think that SUGAR is to blame. I believe the switch to High Fructose Corn Syrup by most soda makers is the problem. Maybe if they taxed products containing HFCS, and did not tax products containing only real sugar, the corporations would return to their old recipes. I drank the heck out of soda when I was a teenager, and I didn't have a weight problem then.

Amy said...

I couldn't find a link so I copied and pasted the name in the search engine. I guess I can truthfully say that I found it interesting that all I got was a cartoon of a guy pushing against a wall while the page tried to load for several minutes...finally I just looked up a press release...and among many interesting things found it comes in fun colours and right now is only available at specialty stores and online - that's okay - I like shopping online!

breiz said...

i too googled it for lack of finding a link on this page. There's a company selling something called watt-ahh. I think the 2 similar names could be a problem for these moms. Once on the correct site, i found that although it's sold in my state, it's on the wrong end of the state for me.

samarcy said...

i found that it has no dye and with a grandson that has autism, i can tell you its very hard to find things that dosent have rd or yellow coloring in it!!
