I drink the Feel Good one too, it annoys the hell out of me when deli's don't stock this, but only the normal Farmers Union Iced Coffee that i've lost the taste for since trying the Feel Good.

I love FUIC, and probably drink too much of it. I dont like FUIC Strong, but I like all the other brands of Iced Coffee. Feel Good would be my choice of non FUIC drink, even though it is still Farmers Union!!

I love the FUIC Strong! Normally I get a 3 litre of the normal one when doing my shopping and that lasts a week but sometimes if on special I'll get 2 x 2 litre Strong's for the week, does that sound a bit extreme? :)

I have for the last 8 or so years had a 600ml fuic every morning but due to the price and my expanding waistline :roll: i plan on going back to one or two a week and hopefully get off the stuff all together in the near future. It is the best tasting drink though.

Don't mind the FUIC, but not my first preference of milk drink.

Would prefer a French Vanilla Cappuccino or a Mocha from the Pura range.

Strong is the best of the 3 from FUIC imo.. Feel good is pretty good as is Goulburn Valley..

Yes it is cos i was drunkenly talking to someone who works at the place the other night at the highway. Spent half an hour quizzing him on the inner workings. Apparently theres no difference between the batch numbers but i still search for the '3' cartons when im buying it (real head know what im talking about).

that's the name of the stuff I drank...
GWW- it's the sugar/carbs, not the fat content that's the one to watch...


The calories of Feel Good are about the 1/4 of the normal stuff. So it's a better alternative for the waistline.

But, you're right, because of the sugar content it's best to stay off both if you are blowing out in the tummy!

It's amazing what you're body adjusts to in time if you stick with it. Feel Good now tastes completely fine to me but it did take took some getting used to. After drinking skim milk for years I now find normal milk way too creamy :shock:

For anyone thinking i am obsessed about the fat content, I had a cholesterol reading of 7.4 2 years ago and my doctor said I was in one of the highest risk brackets of a heart attack before the age of 40. I also had a bad reading when i was 15 which is why it's strictly skim milk only. i have a family history of heart attacks.

So, to anyone out there in their 30s it's well worth getting a cholesterol test ... in between your iced coffees! ;)

yeah i used to drink the feel good stuff instead of the norm iced coffee, used to have one before a footy game and that gave me just the right amount of sugar content to make it through, but now that i have moved to brisbane its not available here, so have been drinking the norm iced coffee, but yet the kilos have stacked on, so hence i will be giving it up after today!! will enjoy the last one today im sure but after midnight tonight,.....they will be no more

I was a regular 'user' of the old Farmers Union IC until their new advert came on TV.
There, leaning on the wall talking to the chic is the one & only Matt Ween, ex Pooraka, Gepps & Gaza player being what he loves being, a star.
The only star I know who expected to get paid for playing in the B grade.
