Bad batches

get a refund, open the next box while still in store

Sounds like it’s bad, maybe it got too hot. I don’t shop at Sams but they need to check their supply!

It's just an alien alcohol drink........

Every once in a while a caramel one will have a chunk of I don't know what in it. I hate when that happens though, cause it grosses me out. I wouldn't classify it as chunky, as there is usually only one chunk, but still very unappealing.

This is very common in many protein shakes.. it is where the protein settles.. it is not bad.. just is unpleasant from the texture. If you contact premier protein directly, they will get information from you off the box and gladly replace it all for you at no charge. I know this because it happened to me and the chunks creeped me out. They’re nothing but easy and great to deal with!

I guess @Frustr8 was the only one that got my joke huh? Hint, Hint.... "Alien Nation". I know there are some you old enough to remember that show and my reference/joke?

Well today was the first,time my protein shake tasted sicky sticky , sweet, maybe I'll have dilute it half-and-half.

That exact thing happened to me with the cookies and cream flavor. Not sure of the cause but I thought maybe it was the heat and/or the inulin/cellulose clumping up but I took the box back to Sams and they gave me a refund. I did not like that flavor so I have not purchased it again. No problems with the caramel or vanilla I currently use in my coffee. It was pretty nasty....

I'll fess up, I'm old enough to remember that show, however also old enough that I completely forgot the spoiled milk reference until you posted this and reminded me.

That used to happen to mine when i would but them in the fridge right next to the cooler, i thought maybe they were getting too cold? I put them on a lower shelf now and haven't had that problem since!
