Alka Seltzer Vitamins

That's right. Vitamins in Germany don't come in pill form. They come in fizzy tablet form. In a fancy tube. I really like them, although the first time I purchased them I didn't realize that they were fizzy dissolving pills, and stuck one in my mouth to chew up on the commuter train. Big mistake. I had pink strawberry flavored foam coming out of my mouth and nowhere to go. Oh dear.
Now I drink my daily multivitamin. It probably doesn't really help, but it sure tastes good (a LOT better than alkaseltzer) and I think the packaging is a pretty cool idea.

I wonder if they would be a hit in the US? I wish they would just make Crystal Light or other drink mixes in this fancy fizzing dissolving form, and not in that clumpy one. It would be a great marketing ploy "fit and fizzy"....

The Brits have had fizzy vitamin C (tradename Redoxon) for a long time now and it shows no sign of catching on across the pond. We prefer not to enjoy our vitamins.
