| Big Train has the BEST low carb products I have tried so far. I have been enjoying the hot cocoa mix since Feb. 2004 and I highly recommend it! The cocoa is not too sweet, no funny after taste and does not at all taste "diet" like. It has a fantastic flavor and I drink it even when I fall off the low carb wagon. |

| I was shocked at how good the hot chocolate mix was.. I just re-ordered and opted for the 2 lb can. I took the mix to work with me for an afternoon treat :) I didn't even add the half-n-half but I'm sure that a dash of cream would make it even better. I did add one splenda to it because I like my drinks sweeter than it was originally. I would recommend this to everyone who is watching carbs or sugar. I've been on Atkins for about 2 1/2 years now and have discovered a lot of "keepers" here at Netrition. The Big Train hot cocoa was one of them! |

February 26, 2013 Reviewer: Doug in Michigan |
| This is really, really good. I am particularly happy that Big Train uses erythritol and no maltitol (evil stuff I think is the primary cause behind failed low carb diets). It tastes great and is quite low in carbs. I use heavy cream instead of half & half as it is lower in carbs and you don't need to use as much. I recommend adding the cream directly to the hot chocolate mix and mixing it into a consistent slurry before adding the hot water. This really helps eliminate floating clumps. The only negative I can mention is that it does settle out more quickly than regular hot chocolate mix, so just get in the habit of giving it a stir every few sips. I also really love this added to coffee for a very nice mocha treat. |

| When added to hot coffee, this product makes incredibly delicious CAFE MOCHA. I am totally addicted to this wonderful flavor addition to my coffee. Beats the competition at ST*******! Product used by Clyde's wife, Wendy. |

| I've been enjoying this hot cocoa for several years now and have never had a better tasting cocoa. Occasionally I will add a package to a large cup of coffee and have a wonderful hot mocha drink that's lightly sweet and rich with flavor. None of the Big Trane products spike my blood sugar so I'm hoping they hang around for a very long time. It's nice to have genuine comfort foods without the negative impacts on my health. Thanks for carrying these products. |

| Wow, this stuff is so good, I'm really glad I took other reviewers advise and bought the 2 lb can! I made it with almond milk and I can't believe how good it is. Do not hesitate to buy this product! |

| This mix is delicious, low-carb, low calorie and has no soy like a lot of low-carb products. You can make it with milk instead of water and it's even more delicious! |

| I really wish that I had listened to the review that said go ahead and order the big can the first time. I love this product, it tastes great. I mix a half a scoop with coffee for a low carb mocha. Great stuff! |

| This is delicious Hot Chocolate and being low carb is does not mess up my blood sugar. It can be a bit difficult to dissolve. Just let it sit for a little bit then stir again. |

| Love the taste but have found it necessary to heat it a little more than the directions indicate. I also add a splash of half n half just to get a little more richness in the taste. Keep it on hand throughout the winter. It's great for a quick warm up. I like the convenience of the individual packs also. |

| The best low carb hot chocolate out there!! It is creamy and doesn't clump up. It is creamy and rich tasting even with just water. I mix with water or soy milk with a little creamer or sugar free hazelnut flavor. This is an awesome product. It sells more than any other product I sell in my health club nutrition store! |

| ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My picky 14 year old boy loves it, (he's on meds that make you gain weight). We both enjoy it. It's so rich and creamy. For a special treat we add extracts like almond and then top with the LA NOUBA brand no carb marshmallows (from netrition.com). Wonderful! |

| Sweet, chocolatey and warm on a cold winters day...add great tasting, and you have a great hot cocoa mix. I add a scoop to my coffee for a mocha treat too. My kids love the taste. It has a mild coconut flavor to it, so try the 5pk box first to make sure you like it. |

| Tastes like regular Hot Chocolate to me. I haven't tried a lot of the other low carb hot chocolate mixes and I likely won't - since I didn't notice the difference between this and sweetened brands. Of course I've been doing the low carb diet for a while - so I'm sure I've gotten used to sugar free products. Buy it - I don't think you'll have any complaints! |

| Mmmmmmm. I have been eating low carb since 2003 so it had been a long time since I had hot chocolate. We got this for Christmas last year and everyone agreed that Big Train's hot chocolate tasted just like regular hot chocolate -- even people who do not eat low carb! I thought it was especially good with a low carb marshmallow on top (also available on Netrition!). |

| This hot chocolate mix is better than any type of mix I've ever tried! No need to add sweetener, it's already perfect as it is. For extra richness, add 1/4 cup of cream, and you'll think you've gone to heaven! |

| I find this to be a really good low carb hot chocolate. I think it is better than any I have found in the store, even though some may be lower in carbs than this product. To me taste is much more important. This has a nice chocolate taste and no horrible aftertaste like some do. I also like the fact that it does have a little bit of fiber and store brands do not. I am buying more of this product. |

| After I spent a year losing 110 pounds, some things I knew I could never have again...one of them was hot chocolate, well, along comes this Big Train company, and WOW!, I can have hot chocolate again, in the big scheme of life is it big? no, but it's nice to have on those cold winter nights. |
