if it is the stuff Melissa mentions, it can have--how shall I put it?--rather anti-social effects on those who consume it. And that's just in a one-drink serving--this recipe calls for a 1/2 cup of it!
(As a substitute, I'd probably use some powdered espresso and grated chocolate instead of the mocha-drink powder.)
I think the International Coffees (the mocha mix) are now part of Maxwell House.
My mom loves the stuff. I think she stopped buying so much when she was drinking
a bunch of it and gained a lot of weight one summer. Erin, I've certainly never experienced such problems drinking it, nor has my mom. Perhaps someone is lactose intolerant? I used to like the Cafe Vienna and it never bothered me either. It's about the equivalent of hot chocolate mix with coffee added in.
