Yes, I posted the same exact thing in the nutrition forum, needs to be seen.

Every day/week/month there is an influx of posts raving about these amazing Protein shots and how awesome they are, you can chug 42g of protein in a second and it's all good, right? No, I'm afraid not. If you notice, many of the protein shot companies are no longer around. What does that mean you ask? Well, that means some supplement company or big box store bought a **** load of protein tubes for a freakishly low price, and are passing on the great savings to you for your health!!

Actually no, bubble burster ahead. It means they're making a killing off of these because they cost nothing to make because they're all made with such a low quality of products. What happens when BCAA and Proteins sit on a shelf in liquid form? It all becomes chemically unchained, making the product worthless to you. As they are manufactured, sure I'm sure they have MAYBE 42g of protein, but after it's sat for a month? Not anywhere near that much and the BCAA's in there are pointless, the main chained amino acid becomes stale and breaks down, so the vessel that transports the rest of the amino acids no longer exists, so no amino's get anywhere where they're needed.

Actinase [Patent Pending Blend Of Enzymatically Hydrolyzed (Predigested) Collagenic Protein Isolate, whey Protein Isolate, Casein Protein Isolaate

Ever drink any protein that has ^^ that in it? Congratulations you just drank ground cow parts, bones, hair, hide, teeth, and at times even organs if they're not separated at the mill.

Gelatin dessert, and although it might be a fun food, it was not designed to build muscle mass and it won't. This protein has a PER of almost 0. It contains little or no tryptophane, one of the essential Amino Acids necessary for the formation and utilization of all the other Amino Acids. It is a lot cheaper for a manufacturer to purchase hydrolyzed gelatin than the special whey American Body Building uses, which is a natural milk protein naturally extracted during the processing of cheese, after which the lactose, a milk sugar, is removed.

When using hydrolyzed gelatin, the nutritional information panel on the label is supposed to make the statement "Not a significant source of Protein" next to the word protein. But they usually and conveniently forger to include it. Have you been using a product like this and not gained the mass you thought you should on a high protein supplement? Well, you're not getting any protein for it. Whenever you see hydrolyzed gelatin anywhere on the label, even if the label says the product contains whey, check your rear view mirror. Gelatin can cost 75% less than soluble whey, and whey is much more difficult to process. Given these facts, how much quality protein do you believe they are actually giving you in their products when gelatin is listed on the label.

THINK ABOUT IT! For these and other reasons of increased processing costs, some manufacturers opt to go the easy way, and put low quality, low biological utilization proteins in their products.

Your body cannot even being to absorb the protein inside these tubes because of the incomplete BCAA profile. You're literally crapping this protein right out your rear end, might as well just throw your money in the toilet, you'll be doing yourself a favor.

woah.

What about this one?:

"From the makers of the first Protein shot, Yes Whey™ is the first and only to use 100% pure whey protein -- and nothing but whey protein.

Yes Whey was designed to help consumers feel at ease about the quality of protein they consume. While other companies boldly use the word 'whey' in their brands, Yes Whey is the first ready-to-drink protein shot made exclusively from whey protein. This guarantees that the protein going into your body has a PDCAAS* of 100, the highest quality rating a protein can receive.

Yes Whey contains 25 grams of whey protein, zero fat, zero carbohydrates, and 100 calories -- all in less than three Fluid ounces."

From what I've READ, the Yes! Whey are the best tube protein, my only question would be if there's a printed manufactured date on the package, as even whey protein has a shelf life, be in longer than most others, but it will break down over time.

So basically, the Yes Whey! are just like any whey RTD shake.. except that it just has less fluid... and according to most people, it tastes like feet.

Don't' call people whiny babies, they're sensitive and will cry to a moderator when you call them that. They also cry when you tell them eating a damn taco bell taco isn't good for them.

Whoa, Mark! Someone stomp on your big toe this afternoon? Not that I disagree with your sentiments, but it seems a bit more in your face posting than your usual stuff.
