We ended up putting one on a shelf and making sure no one ever touched it to see if the little balls would settle to the bottom.

I LOVED everything about it!! And the little balls were not an issue They were fun and tasted fine to me I have been wanting these forever and I now know what happend, darn old people didnt like them they had no fun in there life to understand the joy those drinks brought to me when my friend would go to Canada and bring me only one of those drinks back to me.

I remember giving one to my online friend at the time when she visited, and watching her gross out and making her promise to drink it really cold. I wonder if she did... that was the trick for me. It had to be really cold, then it was good. But if it was room temp... ew. Also, the balls sunk at higher altitudes. You had to shake them to get the balls to rise... that doesn't sound right.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-20511964895268869042011-06-10T12:02:14.516-04:002011-06-10T12:02:14.516-04:00Nope - never heard of this product but it definite...Nope - never heard of this product but it definitely doesn't sound appealing to me.

They weren't like boba tea with the tapioca all congregated at the bottom of the drink, they hung eerily throughout the drink, no matter how much you shook it. <br /><br />It was a marvel of modern food design and didn't get enough credit in its day.Laura Moncurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03282508625104840638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15023065.post-52698683686158591412011-06-07T08:23:29.671-04:002011-06-07T08:23:29.671-04:00ORBITZ are AWEOSME!
