“Only 4 shakes for $7! That's a lot of money. I expected them to taste better than the SlimFast Low-Carb Chocolate Shakes, and they did. However, they were far from tasting good. They did have a good amount of protein and less carbs than you would typically expect to see though. I guess they are an "OK" pick as far as I'm concerned.”

“I liked all flavors. Serve them cold and over ice. They are lower in sugar than most protein drinks you can get at the grocery or pharmacy. It definitely is not chocolate milk but it's close enough for me. I liked them bc they are the conistency of milk. I tried muscle milk and it tasted like chocolate water and was way too sweet. ”

“The two free cans is what led me away from Slimfast (chocolate royal). Big mistake. I found it very watery tasting, warmed up very quick and had a bitter after taste that the Slimfast did not have. These protein shakes were advised by my doctor for pre-op liver shrinking!”

“These are a little chalky, but otherwise satisfying. They are a bit sweet, but I am able to drink an entire can in an hour and it nearly completely satisfies my protein requirements (15g per can x 3 day). Sure, it's boring since their aren't any flavored like eggs & bacon or hamburger (hahahaha). but, it does the job and is pallatable. ”
