I will stick with Premier Protein brand when possible. These are gritty. Not extremely but enough that you can feel it when you put your teeth together.

I did not find my usual Pure Protein brand at Sams, so thought I would try this one. Members Mark failed! The aftertaste is bad. Lesson learned! I will stick with Pure Protein brand from now on.

The taste is chocolaty but very chalky as well, also the consistency is very thick. The only way I can have them is blending them with a banana and PB2 powder. I will not buy again.

I currently drink Atkins shakes and bought these hoping they would be comparable but they are awful. The flavor was fine but the consistency was yuck. Super chalky and like sandy like you could feel the protein powder in your mouth.

I was a regular chocolate Premier protein drinker and I thought I would try these out hoping to save a couple of bucks. The taste is pretty terrible and they gave me horrible stomach issues. I ended up throwing most of them away and I will stick with Premier from now on.

First time I tried these, I usually get Premier brand. Not bad but not as good as the Premier. I tried Chocolate in both brands. I will use up what I have for breakfast replacement a few days a week or mid afternoon snack and switch back to the Premier.

OK tasting, but leaves after taste; prefer Fairlife 30 grams as milder chocolate flavor; you should understand the nutrition label for these protein drinks; most drink labels treat 50 grams of protein as 100% of the Recommended Daily Value (RDA); however, the RDA for protein is based on a person's weight and their amount of physical activity, so that there is not one RDA value of protein that applies to every person; the general daily dietary guideline for adults is 0.8 grams of protein per kg of body weight (which converts to 0.36 grams of protein per pound of body weight); most nutrition drink labels list 30 grams of protein as 60% of the RDA which would mean that 50 grams of protein would be 100% for the RDA; however, by working backwards (divide 50 grams of protein by 0.36 grams of protein per pound), it means that 50 grams of protein would only be 100% for a sedentary 139 pound person; however, many adults weigh more than 139 pounds, and thus, they would have a greater RDA for protein; for example, an 150 pound person needs 54 grams for 100% of daily protein, and an 180 pound person would need 65 grams of daily protein for 100%; and for a very physically active person and someone who is trying to build muscle, they could need up to twice that amount of the daily protein that a sedentary person needs; also, as people become elderly, they tend to lose muscle mass and need more than the recommended minimal RDA protein; thus, while you should pay attention to the number of “grams of protein” listed per the bottle label, the percentage of what those grams represent for each person's RDA of protein depends on the individual person's weight and daily physical activities;

I add HALF of this each day to my morning coffee...its is perfect. I do not care for it straight out of the carton, but love it as an add in to boost recipes and such. I wish it did come in different flavors, but for now I simply add a tablespoon of coconut coffee syrup (or sometimes pepermint...yum!).

It tastes horrible, that's why it lost a star. I'm in love with the Atkins shakes, but I could not lose weight on them. I've tried other brands with similar ingredients, and the same problem they did not fill me up as a meal replacement, and then I was eating bad stuff. I decided not to listen to the internet and get something with whey protein and milk. As they say, this is more for weight gain and body builders. So I always stayed far away from it. Well, I wish I hadn't. Not only does it fill me up, but I don't crave anything have to force myself to eat, but I've been losing a pound a day. Other brands I worked out daily, hardly ate what I did eat was healthy and I'd gain weight. So I just guzzle it down real quick so I don't have to taste it. Spending all this money on products that don't work is annoying. I'm 44 and already have hormon issues and problems with weight because of it. It's so hard to find something that works. I hope this review helps others. The minute the price goes up because of my review and people start buying it just so you know membersmark, I'll stop drinking and find something else. Then come back and leave a review for the new product I find. So don't be a price gouger and up the price. It's already pricey as it is compared to other brands with similar ingredients.

Absolutely disgusting taste and mouth feel. My DH bought these when he couldn't find Fairlife Protein Shakes and these Member's Mark 30g High Protein Shakes do not come close to the Fairlife 30g Protein shakes. The Member's Mark shakes taste like chemicals and are gritty,the chocolate flavor is non-existent. We now have a 16 pack of these shakes we won't drink. We each opened one and poured them down the drain after one taste for me and two for DH.
