Topic: RE: You won't believe it!!
It is always good to have different opinions. I have tried different protein supplements and have found many I do not care for. Wer are fortunate there are many various items to choose from.
So as it has been said before, thank goodness for chocolate, strawberry, vanilla and neopoliation for those who can no make up their minds.

Yeah, I was on pureed foods for 4 days when I said "Screw this! I have fully functional teeth." and started soft foods.

You will have to let me know about the crackers. I have not tried them yet.
I do hope you enjoy the PB2 and the crackers.

Good luck & hang in there. I'm 6 weeks post op and feel completely normal again.
Did the doc tell you that you couldn't eat pureed food until after ther follow-up? I was told 1-2 weeks on full liquids and then 1-2 weeks on pureed foods and then 1-2 weeks on soft foods. And I was told to progress as I was able because everyone heals differently. Not telling you to ignore doc orders, just to maybe double check that your understanding was their actual intent.
Take care & let us know how you are doing.

I tried it because so many people raved about how if you added it to a chocolate protein shake it tasted like a Reese Cup. Not to me. To me, it tastes exactly like a chocolate protein shake with peanut powder in it. Even adding Splenda to make it a bit sweeter didn't help. Some people reconstitute it to use it as they would regular peanut butter, but I tried that and it was even worse. I was never one to take the time to make any protein shakes withn mroe than about 3 ingredients, so I never tried it with anythign like that... perhaps that would have made a difference. Anyway,I just wanted to offer a different "review" of the PB2.
