Xero Picks Energy

These are great. Lots of flavor & hold up pretty good. The containers are kinda hard to pop open, but that's prob better than them opening accidentally & spilling everywhere.

The tingle is nice. Using it to quit smoking and they're helping for sure. Only issue I have is some of the flavors aren't the best.

Two out of the five flavors are bold. The other three are kind of meh, my favorite were grape and blue raspberry.I’d recommend these they’re good on the road for a more steady dose of caffeine I’m not sure exactly how many pics is too many pics but I’ve had four of them in a few hours without any adverse side effects. I rather enjoy these.The wood itself is typical toothpick type wood maybe a little bit less reliable as I’ve had a lot of them just break into thirds the moment you crimp your tooth down on it to imprint it not a big deal. I just think it’s maybe a little expensive for toothpicks.The containers are nice, but I’ve had to explain how to open it to everyone I’ve handed it to.

EDIT: Just wanted to update this review, as it is almost 2 years since the first review. These are now the only flavored / caffeinated toothpicks I buy. I usually grab the 5 flavor pack and the 3 flavor pack that has the mint flavor, and that will last me just over a month. It will probably take a drastic shakeup in toothpick technology to even interest me in another product at this point.I am a fairly prolific consumer of various kinds of caffeinated toothpicks. Every so often I will check to see what is out in the market so I am fairly confident I have tried pretty much everything. These Xero "Berry Blast" caffeine toothpicks have quickly become a favorite for a few reasons, and I have been through 5 tubes of them now.First and most importantly is the effect that the toothpick has. I think the description calls it "mouth tingle". To me it feels like an intense mouth vibration. This is great for me because it is a rapid, unmistakable, and strong feedback. As the sensation carries on, there is a mild numbing effect, which isn't enough to make your mouth droop like after a visit to the dentist, but enough to take the edge off a mild toothache. It is by far the strongest physical reaction I've had from an "energy" toothpick. These aren't wet like most of the others I've tried, and I don't know what effect that has on the caffeine, or how much each pick contains. Unfortunately, I am tolerant enough to caffeine that I probably wouldn't consciously be able to tell the difference, but I suspect with how I can substitute these for my regulars that the caffeine is within the ballpark. The feeling they generate is definitely energetic.Second, and what makes these quite a good value despite the high-ish price, is the quality. If you've used any toothpicks before you know that durability is a huge problem in general. This is especially true with most of the wet kind of caffeine picks that I am used to; all of the quality control problems of normal toothpicks compounded by the fact that they have had liquid forced into them under pressure. I don't know exactly what these are made of, but it is 3 times as thick at least compared to average toothpicks, and it is dense and fibrous. These things are absolute beasts. I like to bite on the end of a toothpick, and these can easily go an hour at my normal level. If I go gentle on them, I have had times where I've had to put one aside to take a meal break or something. The durability of these are simply unprecedented in my experience.The longevity of the pick raises the question about the longevity of the chems. In a pleasant surprise, they seem to last just about as long as the pick, and when they start to run down you can bite on the pick to get the goodness that is inside.These are heavy in my regular rotation and they are here to stay. I even ordered one of the non-caffeine flavors this time around to try those out. I am (unfortunately) not sponsored, compensated, or offered any free product for this review. I found these myself and have never had any direct contact with the company. 100% recommend them.

They tingle and made my mouth water, yes and that was the man purpose for my purchase.As for the taste I liked the flavors taste all of them in that order! My next order of a few more flavors the sticks are rock hard don’t have much of a tingle or taste almost STALE! The toothpick breaks when I lightly bite as they say to. The first batch didn’t.As for energy don’t know if it gave me anything couldn’t tell, but didn’t pay attention for that…3 stars because the first Order cost me the same amount as a 5 pak! They gave a messag after I paid thy changed it to 3 sorry. BS

Easy too take on the go, flavors are fine, and they work great for a quick boost.

The flavor used maks me feel sick

Perfect for construction jobs where you can’t have a cigarette flavor is on point unlike the others

Es increíble que dure bastante el sabor en un palillo. Llevo más de una hora con uno y sigue sacando sabor y no se rompe con facilidad.A mi madre le di uno porque ella es fumadora y le gustó y menciona que efectivamente le dio energía.

Amazing taste great flavours perfect little pick me up for a slow day was definitely surprised by them great for camping

Great flavours and quality toothpicks. Helps stop other cravings.

Tastes of sweet wood with zero "tingle"

Dit zijn de beste tandenstokers met smaak op de markt naar mijn mening. Zijn prijzig, maar gaan erg lang mee qua smaak en textuur dus zijn het ook waard.
