 What about the packaging ! ! ! October 21, 2008

The product meets the technical requirements for organic certification ... but be under no allusions that the cows are frolicking about in fields (thankfully they at least aren't fed chopped up bits of other cows). Very important consideration for folks looking to do good ... the cartons are 100% NOT recyclable.
 Marginally organic with traces of soy October 13, 2008
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.
 Taste good.... September 20, 2008
I like this organic chocolate milk. It is creamy and is better while serving cold. Fat is reduced as stated but it is not enough. It needs to cut more fat and sugar.
 OH HOW I WISH I HAD TRIED THIS MILK SOONER!!!! September 20, 2008
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.
Great Item, Not Great Price September 14, 2008
very handy for school lunches and nice that it has a good shelf life - but you can get this case of 18 cheaper at Whole Foods or even your local grocery store. My Whole Foods has them on sale for $14.99. Hey Amazon, why the crazy price? Trying to make up for the free shipping?
