General Thoughts

Their macros and products can't be beat, but they're a bit expensive for my taste. I generally respect the brand quite a bit, but I've heard they have a questionable ethical track record. Overall, their shakes are very smooth and high protein - definitely my go to RTD shake.

Price

At ~$3-4 per shake, and nearly $8 on my university meal plan, 5.75/10.

Fullness Factor

It's a shake, but it's thick, and as far as shakes can go, it's decent. 8/10.

Nutrition

The macros are hard to beat, but they are slightly worse than an ordinary protein shake using protein powder, with the discrepancy mostly coming from fat. 8.5/10.

Flavors

Chocolate (8)

  • Taste: This is literally chocolate milk, both in terms of smooth texture and chocolate flavor. 8.5/10.
  • Overall: 8/10

Vanilla (7.5)


  • Taste: Similarly, this is a pleasant, mild vanilla, with an inoffensive amount of sweetness and a decadent texture. 7.75/10.
  • Overall: 7.5/10

Strawberry Banana (7.25)


  • Taste: Still good, but not like a real strawberry banana smoothy. This honestly comes off an artificial, and the banana flavor is much milder than I'd like. Kinda bland overall. 7/10.
  • Overall: 7.25/10
