A White pop up is a White pop up, flavor is irrelevant, sub concisely you know it because you ask about a WHITE pop up not a particular flavor.
36 Years carping tells me it's color this time of year.

Look at it from a salesman's point of view, Red, White, Pink, Yellow, Orange. That's 5 pots. Now if you have 6 different flavors that's 30 pots, it's a ****ing scam.
It's always been about color not flavor but todays carper doesn't know, that's why you see adds on FB for various pots of pop ups for sale, you constantly buy what you never needed.

Just make up a batch of non flavoured white pop ups. Then just glug them or spray them with flavour and attractants etc. Its what I do in small 60ml or 120ml sample bottles of Ebay. And then airdry them if you think it will effect its buoyancy or just use them as they are which is what I do.

This way you can experiment with about half a dozen popups in various flavours etc, and if they work keep using them, and if they don't, they don't and at the end of the day, you will not end up with a fortunes worth of shop bought popups that were failures. And if you want, you can even dye them another colour.

Also a neutral non flavoured and no attractants added white bait is a good bait to use as a fish will pick it up. I used to have a small piece of white plastic bag in my garden pond about an inch square, From morning to night, the carp would just suck it in and blow it out repeatedly.

Also think about, you may be recommended the "Best White Popups" but a lot of others will know that and they may have been done to death on your water and fish may be very wary of them or even bolt away. Like washed out pink nutcracker popups on the water I fish, they was done to death for about 2 or 3 years by everyone in the know and to use them now or even nutcracker boilies is guaranteed a blank.

Are you sure?
