 Great milk, terrible priceAug 02, 2007
By sellquality
I love this chocolate milk--especially in my morning coffee. But $25 for an 18-pack is JUST WRONG! I bought an 18-pack this morning at Whole Foods for $15.99!

greatAug 22, 2007
By grumpyrainbow
Since I've started buying groceries at amazon I have discovered "taste great" is a pretty subjective thing. That's obvious since everyone has different tastes, but even so I wonder about some of the great reviews on some things. So I bought this because it was on sale with the 20 dollars off deal and didn't actually expect to enjoy the milk. I bought the regular milk and this chocolate. Well, I'm pleasantly surprised to say it actually does taste great. The milk does have a very very slight different taste from milk you would get in your supermarket, but in no way does that take away from the milk. I drunk it when it was over room temp and then when it was cool. It tasted better cold, but it wasn't bad warmer either. So I guess Horizon can consider me a convert to their milk and I will certainly buy again before the sale is off.

 Beware! The Formula has Changed.Mar 03, 2011
By Kevin A. McGrail
"KAM"
My kids have been drinking this milk for years in their lunches and loved it. We bought it by the 18-pack in both chocolate and vanilla.
Unfortunately, the most recent shipment was flatly refused by my kids who are not horribly picky. They wanted me to throw 2 cases out!
The worse news is that after checking with Horizon Dairy to see if we got a bad batch, we found out they CHANGED THE FORMULA! After confirming our UPC numbers, etc. this is the response we received in March of 2011:
"Thank you for your recent e-mail to Horizon Organic®. We appreciate your interest in our products.
We tested the new versions of Horizon Organic 1% Flavored Milks thoroughly and received strong consumer results, specifically related to the improvement over our prior formulas.
While we've received positive feedback, we're sorry you're not completely satisfied with our new recipe changes.
We value you as a consumer and hope we can help you find another Horizon Organic product to meet your needs.
Thanks again for contacting the Consumer Affairs Department."
Buyer beware!
Regards,
KAM

Beware of the new formula/taste!May 17, 2011
By Boston Mom
My kids have been big fans of these milk boxes for years, both chocolate and vanilla. However, once we get through what we have on hand, we won't be buying any more. My kids *HATE* the new formula--my daughter actually cried when I told her that this was the way her favorite chocolate milk was going to taste from now on. I will still sometimes pick up a carton or two at Starbucks (where they are still somehow selling the original formula), but it's way too expensive for everyday. We are sad to see our favorite convenience snack go...

 Marginally organic with traces of soyOct 13, 2008
By Anne Pandian
"Anne Pandian"
I bought a case, not yet knowing that while it qualifies as organic technically, the company does nothing to go above and beyond like many organic companies do. I bought it because the prices were so much better than Organic Valley.
My soy allergic son had an allergic reaction to one sip.
I called the company, and they do run soy on the same line.
I drank the rest of the case myself over time and only buy Organic Valley for my kids. Not only do I not want another soy reaction, but Organic Valley actually makes it a rule to treat their cows with respect and gives them a good life in addition to following the organic standards. Horizon does whatever they can to be right on the margin so they can charge organic prices.
Still better than conventional? Maybe. But even without allergies, I like my milk to contain just milk, not traces of something else.
