Gatorade Zero Tablets, Variety Pack (Pack of 40)

Easy to toss these in my work bag and so much lighter than lugging heavy bottles. Refill at a water station and it helps me stay hydrated and drink more water

I gave up lugging bottles & creating waste years ago when I discovered the packets - these tablets are even better.Also, I don’t need a lot of flavor and tried to use partial packets but they can’t be resealed/transported & become messy.I can break the tablets into fourths & get my perfect portion for a glass of water.

TLDR: I received 3 boxes of 8 tubes (240 tablets total) for $37.98. Since the title says 'Pack of 80,' you might just get one box. Tubes are easy to open + conveniently small size. Tablets are breakable. Flavor is slightly different from the bottled version, but I still like it. I probably will buy again.CONTEXT: I bought these to help me stay hydrated post-surgery. I struggle to hydrate consistently in general, so seeing the "2-3L of water a day" instructions for recovery was enough incentive to buy sports drinks. I'm not supposed to be lifting heavy nor exerting a lot of force, and yes that includes opening bottles. After this realization I looked for alternatives to bottled Gatorade—while I initially was thinking of powders, I stumbled across these tablets and decided to give it a try.PRICE AND QUANTITY: When I purchased this, the deal was $37.98 for the '8 count (Pack of 10)' option, lemon-lime only. You might find different deals depending on what flavor/quantity you select. Anyway, I received three boxes, and each box has 8 tubes. Each tube has 10 tablets. The title says 'Pack of 80,' but each box is 80 tablets, so technically I received 240 tablets. I'm not certain if this is standard or it was just a mistake. To be honest, I would've been fine if it was one box; I'm still on my first tube and it's been nearly two weeks since I purchased them. Either way, I think this is much cheaper than buying the equivalent amount in bottles, so I'm not complaining.FLAVOR: I've seen a few complaints about the flavor being totally different. I'm not sure what they're tasting, but I think it's almost exactly the same as the bottled kind. My theory is they might've been comparing it to regular Gatorade; this is specifically Gatorade Zero, so keep that in mind. I've dropped a tablet in some zero sugar lemon-lime soda and it's quite tasty, so there's a suggestion if you're struggling with the flavor.SIZE: Each tube is fairly small, very convenient to put in whatever bag you carry, or your car, or wherever you want to keep one. Since you get multiple tubes, you could just have a tube in different spots. After you break the seal, opening the tube itself is very easy. The tablets are about the size of a quarter, but they're breakable if you've got a bottle with a small opening.All this considered, I would give the product 4.5/5 overall (though Amazon doesn't let me do half stars). Hopefully this helps you make your decision.

I was on the verge of death. I must say watermelon is just not my favorite flavor of Gatorade.

I usually don't leave reviews, but feel the need to warn people away from these tablets. I have been drinking Gatorade Zero from the single serve power packets for a couple of years. Those taste great when fully mixed, but tend to clump and need vigorous shaking to mix well, so when I saw these tablets, I thought "problem solved." And the clumping problem IS solved, but there is a worse problem - taste.I guess if you like the taste of Alka-Selzer, you will like these tablets, because that's what it reminds me of. I tried my various tricks of ridding it of this taste - letting it dissolve for 30 minutes, using chilled water, I even left it in the fridge overnight. Nothing I tried worked. None of the flavors are able to mask the taste, though Fruit Punch does it the best and Lemon-Lime the least, it is there and it is strong.I like the idea of these tablets, but the execution is terrible. So beware. Stick to the packets and shaking vigorously - your taste buds and stomach will thank you.

Saves on plastic!!

Dosent taste like Gatorade. More like pedaling. Strong sodium flavor.

It's gatorade to go in tablet form. I would not advise using these in a bottle because of when it fizzes and builds up pressure you could have a pressure vessel on your hands. But great flavor choices best in a cup. It's zero sugar so great for diabetics. You get more for what you pay for with this rather than buying a premade bottle. Quality of flavors are great, the lemon one is a bit sour I will say that. It mixes well in water no matter the amount. I have used one tablet in my 32oz bottle and it tastes great! The flavor is not as strong but you still get it's benefits.
