Which is the unflavored? I bought the original and it has a bad lemon taste.

Well, at this Amazon page you choose Original, however, this product will have a tart taste. Citric Acid is what makes lemons and other citrus tart. In this product it is used to dissolve the magnesium into a clear liquid that is palatable. Have you ever tried to mix magnesium in water? It's like drinking powdered teacher's chalk :-D That's why I advise my family and friends, should they choose to use this product, to mix it up with a small amount of hot water, about 1/4-1/2 cup, and then add an herbal tea or fruit juice to it to mask the tart taste.

I LOVE the old raspberry- the 'new and improved' flavor is awful. It is way too sweet and now has a sweetner wang to it I camnot stand. I think their test market must have been a bunch of 12 year olds. I have given it to several friends to try and no one so far has liked it. Please write to Alacer to tell them how you feel!

Agreed. With the very first sip I knew they had changed the formula and used stevia. I HATE stevia. I wasted my $9 because I can't finish the box. I bought raspberry, which used to be my favorite flavor and now I can't stand it. I just saw on their site that they also changed the tangerine flavor. So maybe the original orange flavor would be okay.

I still have the original and just cleaned it with urnex full circle coffee maker cleaner... Otherwise, probably only 10 times before you get a stale coffee taste from the filter... Hope that helps?

I think it's new. I never had the old, but this one said new, improved flavor....it's not very good.

Exactly. I bought 4 of them, advertised as the original recipe and was very surprised when I received the new product. I called Amazon and they gave me a refund but now I'm stuck with 4 of the new toffee that are not at all like the old one. Runny too. :( I will not be buying this product unless they change it to the old recipe.

I haven't refridgerated mine. I must be honest, I haven't tried it again after the initial first tasting...it was THAT bad. I will try the idea below with spicy mustard and see if that improves the taste

Mine has worked fine since day one. Seems as if every batch has at least one LEMON. Sorry you got it!

I want to add to my previous comment by saying my juicer with the red feet is the original model- I have had it for decades; it still works great. Sounds like the switch in manufacturers has altered the new model for the worse. Too bad.

I can't answer for the strawberry flavor, specifically, as I no longer have it, but assuming it's the same as the chocolate peanut butter, the container makes no mention of the words "un-denatured."

Hi Stephanie, Im not sure about all of those as I stopped ordering the product last year. The flavor changed in my last few canasters, it literally started tasting like dirt. I thought Id share since I had recommended it to a friend who had the same issue as well.

When the tubing/plastic is brand new it can taste bad. I get concentrated lemon juice and mix with water and then soak my bladder & tube for a few days when brand new and from time to time after that.

I have never tried the orange. As far as the lemon flavor, the taste of lemon is very mild.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question because I threw them in the garbage after trying them. Sickly sweet with almost no flavor or a bad flavor in the case of the lemon. I don't recommed this product.

Personal preference. You should try the flavors store bought before you go through the trouble of making your own.

I am not sure if it's different from the original, I use it in my bread machine and it tastes great! I'd recommend it!

As for me, I don't think any food taste as good as the one cooked on charcoal. A friend of mine told me that it's all in my head, and he couldn't tell the difference. So yeah, I'm not much help. Sorry.
