This is another entry that emerges from my drive to get more protein to heal my sore muscles, especially (in today's case) the quads, a.ka., my running guns...With 30 g protein for only 160 calories (11 oz/serving), I expected another gag-fest as I poked a straw into this high-protein shake. However, I was pleasantly surprised that I did not really gag... this actually tasted like a really thick version of chocolate milk. There were no grainy bits or anything like that. I'm sure it would be a little better if it was thinned out with a little soy milk, or maybe even water. I'm impressed! Note, though, that there are 5g of carbohydrates in this, which really made all the difference in the world, I think.
As with all milk or soy drinks, make sure, as I did, to refrigerate these things before drinking!! I have to worry about the milk content messing with my lactose intolerance, but if it doesn't do much of that sort of damage, I wouldn't mind drinking it again if it wasn't ~$30 for 18 of these guys. Well, I guess that isn't such a bad deal. It has taken me months to finally drink this one that I had laying around (given to me by my sister), so 18 could last a long time.
Haha...you finally drank this. Yeah I wish I could find the Vanilla one. M loves these but I just don't like the thickness that much. Maybe thinning it out like you said would make it better.
