I put them in the freezer for about 2 hours in the morning before school and they stay cool until lunch time. I like the fact that they are shelf stable - makes them good for trips, too. |

When I discovered this brand at my local Walmart, I thought about giving it a short, and man!! It was perfect, tastes just like the one I had back home! Tastes like CHOCOLATE milk! not some watery chocolate icky stuff. This is the real deal! |
294183 | 294183 | B000LKZ3GA | AL8SQ4ZFQXUNV | K. Pope | 1 | 1 | 5 | 1236556800 | kids love it and it is easy to carry around | This is a great product. It doesn't need to be refridgerated until it is opened. The kids love it, I love that it is organic, and it is easy to carry around or pack in lunches. |
294184 | 294184 | B000LKZ3GA | A2CNJHGUEWG51I | Pamela Johnson | 1 | 1 | 5 | 1235606400 | Yummy | My two daughters LOVE this chocolate milk. We were introduced to it at Starbucks. You can buy it at some stores such as QFC and Safeway, however it can cost a small fortune. I like to send this milk with my older daughter for her lunch because it does not need to be refrigerated. I include a standard straw because the small straw can colapse into the container. (The small straw is useful for poking the hole for the regular straw.) I found the monthly service on Amazon to be the best deal for a pack of 18. |

Runski" | 1 | 1 | 3 | 1227484800 | It's good when it "good" | My daughter loves to get these at Starbucks whenever we go to get me an overpriced coffee. I feel good about giving them to her because it's Organic, however, there have been more that a few times that she has gotten a rancid one that had not even yet past the expiration date! I know these don't have to be refrigerated... but maybe they should be? Anyway, these are great, but give em a sniff test before handing them over to your child. |
294186 | 294186 | B000LKZ3GA | A1WXJ1I42UOQ2V | AuburnTygr | 1 | 1 | 5 | 1221782400 | OH HOW I WISH I HAD TRIED THIS MILK SOONER!!!! | A co-worker has tried many times to get me to use organic milk. Due to a severe illness as an infant I was taken off dairy products (doctor's orders) at 6 1/2 months and according to family I refused to drink milk again. I use milk in cooking and try to eat cereal and oatmeal with milk to get my calcium but couldn't use 1/2 gallon before it ruined and I really hate to waste food.
I began reading about shelf stable milk and liked the idea IF and only IF it tasted like real milk. I searched Amazon and debated several days before trying Horizon Chocolate Milk. Chocolate Milk is the only milk I will drink and again I can't drink 1/2 gallon or even a quart before it ruins, although I try. When I saw the additional discount offered I decided if ever I was going to try it, now is the time. IF it tastes like real milk and can be stored without refrigeration until ready to use it would be a win win situation for me. Well......
UPS brought my milk today and not only did I try it, I asked my teen-age son who LOVES milk to give it a try. He couldn't believe it when I told him UPS delivered it from Amazon and that it didn't have to be stored in a refrigerator until it was opened. As for me....I LOVE IT and can't believe I waited this long to try it. It tastes better than the chocolate milk I purchase at the store. As far as price-I can't give an accurate price comparison as this milk is not sold locally in my small hometown. I've seen other posts mentioning price and I think the 15 I paid for it to be delivered to my door is an excellent price. I can already appreciate the convenience of having the 8 oz containers that I can toss in my office refrigerator, a lunch box or just grab on the way out the door as a quick breakfast. Being able to open only what I plan to drink is just way better than I can describe. I would give it more than 5 stars if possible.
Great milk (organic), delivered to your door, stored without refrigeration-I couldn't ask for more. |

My Whole Foods has them on sale for $14.99. Hey Amazon, why the crazy price? Trying to make up for the free shipping? |

It's quite portable and a delicious treat. Better than other chocolate milks because it doesn't have the antibiotics, pus and germs found in regular milk. If you live near a Costco, you can buy this same 18 pack for under $[...]. |

My only complaint is that this product is horribly overpriced on Amazon. I purchase the exact same product (18 count) for under $12 at Costco. Plus if you factor in shipping cost -- yikes, you could easily spend $3 for each little box. Before you do that, I would suggest buying organic milk at the grocery and adding a dollop of Hershey's syrup. |
294194 | 294194 | B000LKZ3GA | A1PCUHX84CILAG | creedling | 3 | 4 | 5 | 1187827200 | Very tasty! | I love Horizon Organic products and accidentally stumbled across these in Starbucks. I had a $5 gift card and instead of leaving a just little on it, I purchased a Horizon Organic Chocolate milk along with my coffee. I thought "I better go straight home so I can put this in the fridge for later" WRONG! I was so happy that they don't have to be refrigerated! Then, I was even happier when I tasted it--- soooo good! Now when I have a chocolate craving after dinner, I reach for one of these instead of a candy bar. Yes, they're still 180 calories, but I feel better about having one of these than candy, cookies, or ice cream. They are a bit expensive, but with Amazon's current sale, and shopping around locally, I've found them for an ok price. I also emailed Horizon Organic and they're sending me 3 coupons. (I don't know for how much off) |

I have nothing negative at all to say about the product ... we use it all the time. However, the price per container is about $1.20 in most stores and discounts are available for buying by the case. The Amazon price (at least as of 8/4/07) is really excessive. |
294196 | 294196 | B000LKZ3GA | A2PF32UUERJXB8 | Susan Swan "reads-curled-in-covers" | 2 | 3 | 5 | 1187913600 | Yeah, it is a bit high, but it is SO WORTH IT! | I love these milks. They are UHT processed, an "ultra high temperature" process mainly used in Europe. In fact, in France, it is hard to find any milk which isn't UHT. UHT allows the milk to be stored for a long time without refrigeration. How great is that? It's wonderful. It has a slightly different taste, but you get used to it in about two days. My kids love this milk, and I buy it in all flavors. They drink at least two a day. So if you can't get your kids to drink milk, try this. It is delicious, smooth, not gloppy and thick like American grocery story milk (that stuff is repulsive). |
294197 | 294197 | B000LKZ3GA | A1S0REJJJF8PEX | Dion | 0 | 0 | 5 | 1346716800 | Yum! | My grocery store was selling singles of these so I grabbed one to try and was pleasantly surprised. It has a nice, chocolatey flavor and smooth texture without being too sweet. A major problem I have with other chocolate milks is either your can't taste the milk-y-ness, or it's so chocolatey it's weird, or it's SO thick you kind of wonder what they used to make it. The portion sizes are pretty weird too, I'm not a calorie counter but a couple months ago I glanced at the side of a chocolate milk drink to discover the whole bottle had over 500 calories! Because of this I don't by "pre-made" chocolate milk and I'll just use powdered mix or syrup to make my own at home where I can control the quantity and the flavor.
I really just bought this on a whim, not because it's "healthy" or "organic". I liked it so much I went back and bought an 18 count case. At my grocery store it was on sale for 14.99 but the regular price is 18 something. It's a little pricey but it's delicious and I don't have to worry about using it up too quickly because of the long-life packaging. It's totally great for throwing in my lunch or for a quick snack. The amount of milk is just right.
I am also the type where drinking too much milk can kind of give me a belly ache, but this is just the right amount where it doesn't bother me, or maybe the organic nature has something to do with it? I don't know but it's definitely a positive! |

I have used Horizon milk for over 4 years and find it to be an excellent product. The 8-Ounce aseptic cartons make it possible for me to send it to school with my son. As always, Amazon does a great job of bring products that you really use to your doorstep. |
294205 | 294205 | B000LKZ3GA | A6FLMG694CPRL | Greg de Leon | 0 | 0 | 5 | 1304208000 | An adult fan, for sure! | As I have said in other reviews, I enjoy eating healthier yet have little time to eat at work. I have been trying to move myself away from fattier, oily snacks during my day and sugary sweet drinks to wash them down. I thought Sun-Chips were pretty good, and buying chocolate milk from the Cafeteria filled it in. I wanted to do better, though. I have now been drinking a lot of Vita Coco to help fill the void, but it can be so expensive and sources which are decently-priced are endangered. This was a questionable purchase at first, since I have been drinking skim milk for 15 years now, so I am used to and prefer the cold, crisp, lighter flavor. I am glad I went for it! Pros -Love the packaging! Does seem to keep flavor better than traditional small milk cartons. -Smooth and rich flavoring. Chocolate is richer in flavor than vanilla. My wife says the vanilla has an after-taste, but I disagree. So it is apparently subjective. I have yet to try the strawberry, but if I were a betting man, I would say the same is true for it. -Better sugar and fat contents than generic milk packages. I have read other reviews that criticize this, but I am not sure what they have been drinking instead. All regular milk has sugar. It is really not that much.
Cons -You might be of those who think the sugar content is too high. - The flavor is different than any I had had before. Any new flavor can be a tough adjustment. Sometimes, that adjustment never completes (I think this one is worth it, but I adjusted very quickly). |

Will continue to order, especially when they are on sale! |

I think these are perfect for him because the size is great and its organic! i dont want him to gain too much weight from all the sugar and overdoes of growth hormones. It is also extremely portable and i can store them anywhere, not just the fridge. I would sometimes treat myself one after workout as well and they taste great!
Although it is a bit pricey, but considering the fact that they last for a long time and they are organic and individually packed, it is totally worth it when it saves you space, money and gives you health! AND the auto ship program offers a great price too. |

--new The design of this container is terrible for toddlers. Opening from the top fits the straw perfectly but this is bad. When my daughter drinks it she would try really hard to suck on the straw. When the air is gone and container is flat she would squeese it trying to get more milk. |
