The Good The Bad & The Nasty

You know that time you paid good money for that one product that boast "delicious flavor" whilst offering high amounts of protein and nutrition.....only to take one bite or sip and gag on the flavor, texture, or viscosity?

Let's face it-- a VAST majority of "bariatric protein drinks", high protein "keto foods", or "bariatric vitamin supplements" taste like :70_poop:.

SOOOO..... in an effort to help each other save time and money, please post the products you have tried and what you would rate them.

Either a: :1312_thumbsup_tone3: or :70_poop:.

Adding pics of the products would be very helpful.

I'll start by posting a few products I've tried in the comments.

This product is called "Nectar" and claims to have a completely smooth and Juice like viscosity. It's disgusting, it's cloudy, and the protein particles will settle in the bottom of your cup.

Wasted $95 on this yucky crap.

Definitely :70_poop::70_poop::70_poop:

This product "Crisp" claims to be a salty and savory alternative to the typical sweet protein products.

Imagine eating air puffed soy beans with a chalky powder like substance caking on them. It literally made me gag.

Total :70_poop:

Sickening sweet, totally artificial tasting, and way too much funky marshmallow filling. Yuck.

While the LEMON variety of these calcium chews are amazing (taste like lemon Laffy Taffy)....THIS "coconut" flavor taste like greasy old coconut oil. Ewwww

Ok....let post a yummy one!

These chewable strawberry watermelon vitamin chews are like eating a piece of sweet and tart candy. Super good and the nutrition absorbs quickly.

I have purchased so many things over the last 6mo. That have been DISGUSTING but, I have FINALLY found a protein bar that makes me feel like I'm eating a Hershey or Snickers! It's actually GOOD!!!

( The chocolate brownie and choc chip cookie dough are GREAT)

(The chocolate birthday cake was NOT very good, too dry)

I have not tried any other flavors

Here's another good one! These sublingual vitamin B12 tablets melt on your tongue in a matter of seconds and tastes like a cherry sweet tart.

Yum:1312_thumbsup_tone3:

Orgain Shakes are great - no bad sugars - tastes way better than Premier shakes. You can buy in bulk at Costco Online. You can order a 4-pack at Walmart online to try them out. I like all 4 flavors, strawberry, chocolate, iced mocha and vanilla526784995.503726.jpg

If you like peanut butter, these are pretty good. It's the only peanut butter bar I found that taste like it could pass for real peanut butter lol.

Though, it is not very sweet. That could be good or bad depending on your preference.

I give it a :1312_thumbsup_tone3:

Ok, so these are a capsule, therefore not really any flavor. But I'm posting them on here because they are a very small capsule and really truly work! If you're having problems with hair loss post-surgery I highly recommend these. As you can see it has caused my fingernails to be long enough I no longer need to wear acrylic nails!

Woo hoo :1312_thumbsup_tone3:

Here's another bad protein bar. Extremely dry and crumbly and the flavor is funky.

On the flip side, the apple cinnamon variety of these bars taste very similar to apple cinnamon nutrigrain bars( not as sweet and more cinnamon)

So either :70_poop: or:1312_thumbsup_tone3:depending on the flavor.

This is helpful. Thanks. I'll keep checking in.

Damn shame that one that looked like a snickers bar got the poo emoji!
