“I purchased the Mocha Cappuccino flavor, it does have caffeine in it though, so beware! The flavor was good, not a bad after taste. Only thing I took issue with was the thickness of the liquid. I added ice and a little bit of water and it was perfect!”

“Would like to tell everyone that this Atkins was once sweetened with other products but now contains sucralose (as do most other shakes). If you find your heart racing at any point check out Splenda on the internet, many people (like me) have had very bad reactions to sucralose and ended up in the emergency room (like me) and after all tests came back negative I found my answer on the computer. Love the stuff but have to use products that contain Stevia (very good and natural sweetener).”

“I really ejoy these shakes. My favorite is the Chocolate Royale and Cafe ue late. I keep them in the fridge and about an hour before i will have one i out it in the freezer. They need to be VERY cold to taste good. Sometimes i leave them in longer till its almost frozen and take the top off w\a can opener and its almost like an ice cream treat.”

“This is the best of the protein shakes that I have tried, tastes better if you mix with milk and then let it sit in fridge for a while, then it is smoother. I use milk instead of water for extra protein.”

“Although I continue to use the pre-mixed cans of Atkins shakes for work, I find them way too sweet. Splenda is a great thing, but it can be overpowering. I also have a few containers of the powdered Atkins shake mix on hand and plan to give them away as I just can't cut the sweetness.”

“I find the ready to drink shakes absolutely yummy and very convenient. I travel all day for work and the convenience is the selling point with me. I have yet to find another ready to drink shake out there that compares in taste. The calories are reasonable and the protein content is high. Very little sugar. And ooohhhh sooooo yuuummmyyy :)”

“I was told to get the vanilla brand, and I must say, I don't like it at all. I think it's just about the most horrible tasting thing I've ever had. I cannot tolerate the taste and neither can anyone in my family. I did have a great coupon, so I'm not to disappointed with having to throw the rest out, but I definitely will not be buying anymore vanilla atkins shakes, from now on, I'm buying shakes on a single can basis.”
