So happy to find my childhood ovaltine at Amazon! Brought back lots of fond memories at home long ago. Will continue to buy this now !

Riquísimo

Just taste like what I remember when I was a kid.

Okay

Long ago in a time before light when all was darkness and swirling evil. There existed in the very center of the void a pool of pure undilluted darkness. Not an absence of light, mind you, but pure darkness in solid form. This evil manifested itself as a crumbly brown dirt which could corrupt and destroy all that it touched. So deadly was the evil soil that even the monsters that writhed in the darkness feared it. In time, they encased the soil in an indestructible cylinder, one from which it could never escape. However, as with all things of evil it could be released.In time the darkness subsided and the age of light began, and for a time it was good. This did not last however. While the darkness and the things it hid oozed away into the cracks of reality, the cylinder survived and the evilest of evil made its way here. Billions of years later on our own little world the cylinder was discovered, and sold. Again and again the Dark Can changed owners from Chieftain, to Wizard, to Priest, to King, to Emperor and on and on through the ages. However, it seemed the universe had other plans for our world and rather than an all consuming darkness the Dark Can was never opened. When its last owner, Magistrate Gerlag Blorrscht passed from accidental implosion the Can was left languishing in a vault for years. It was not until Gerlag's estate was finally sold at auction that the Dark Can once more found its way into the world of man, as the prized possession of Mortimer P. Ovaltine the disgraced son of the beloved creator of the delicious malt beverage.Somehow Mortimer's twisted, writhing mind was attuned to the Can and the Can to him. It whispered to him filing his hornet's nest of a mind with the darkest of thoughts. Mortimer retreated form society to dedicate his time to his only obsession deciphering the whispers of the Dark Can. He spent years listening to the Can, researching it, understanding it as no mortal ever had. When he was done he was no longer Mortimer P. Ovaltine, he had become something else, something wicked. In the dark of night in the sanctum he'd built and desecrated in blood, the thing that had been Mortimer hatched the most evil plan in the history of concepts. He would bring about the dark times with his father's legacy!The plan was simple. Upon his death the dark soil was to be removed from the can and mixed with a batch of his father's drink mix. The dark soil would be spread across hundreds of cans and sold throughout the world. With each can that was sold and opened more and more of the darkness they contained would be freed. Freed to permeate our world until our inevitable doom at the hands of Ovaltine.Make no mistake, Mortimer's plan was a success! The Dark Can was opened, the dark soil was spread, and a batch of tainted Ovaltine was sold to the world under the dark name of "European Formula". This is the sign of the beast! This dark name and its taste. A flavor so malignant that you will feel the child in you die of despair. We are on a knife's edge. These Cans must be found. There is no way to destroy them, but they can be hidden, kept safe, for they must never be opened. If all 666 cans of the European Formula are opened the darkness will return and the writhing things inside will come back, and they are hungry. So very, very hungry.

This is the Ovaltine I drank in the 70's. The sugar is low and the taste is fantastic! The value for the size is great, and when I run out, I'll be ordering it again. Thanks!

No lid????? Pretty good though. Not how I remember it tasting but not that bad either

I guess I'm the only one on here that thought this would be sweet. Regardless, it still tastes delicious and like the ovaltine I've known growing up. I have absolutely no trouble with it dissolving when using hot water, so if you're having trouble with it dissolving, you might want to try using some hot water. Afterward, I add some oat milk for a nice ovaltine latter similar to wushi land bobas own. YUM.
