The stuff that I think Dirtbag and I were referring to was the mix that came in a bag (like Kool-Aid) that contained sugar and corn syrup, a favorite of backpackers and campers in days of old.

Oh hey,
I think I got the prices beat on the Wyler's drink mixes. At my local Dollar store they advertise the drink containers for 4 little tubs for a dollar. Comes in a tube and each tub makes a 3 quarts or something. Defintely a bargain. :wink:
