“Wish I can just get this at Wal*Mart or GNC; the S&H is over half the price of the product. I love Nectar (most all of them I've tried); taste like juice, only 5-6 oz. of water per serving for 23g of Protein!”

“Very distinctive taste. Try and test some of the flavors before you get a large container. I use the Fruit flavors as bases for fruit protein shakes. SynTrax will exchange the flavor if you don't like what you picked out. The only catch is you have to ship it to them. Some of the flavors are good enough that you can eat them like a pixie stick. Others need to be mixed with things...but they have a wide variety of flavors to choose from (just not much of a selection at Vitamin Shoppe!).”
