I am a tolerant person with food, but these shakes are awful. The more I stuck to drinking them, the more I couldn't stand them. My mouth said NO MORE. They are chalky, and there's something so repulsive in the flavor, but I can't describe what it is. I abhor waste, but I wouldn't want a homeless person to drink these, so I am dumping the rest down the drain. At least that way the water and nutrients aren't trapped in a landfill somewhere.

Everyone saying is not the best etc. I’m sorry to break it to you but we drink it to hit our protein goal not for the taste. If it’s the taste you want go with fairlife or protein powder so you can put whatever you like in it. But premier makes the members mark protein shakes so they taste the same as them, they are just cheaper as they cost 2$ less and u get 3 more shakes.

To be fair, there are not many of the protein drinks that I like the flavor of, and chocolate is my least favorite. This is the bottom of the barrel for me. I have 16 more to force my self to finish. I usually love member mark stuff, definitely not this time. I don't like the smell, taste - nothing I can say that I like about it. I wish my Sams would consistently have the fairlife shakes - loved the coffee flavored while they lasted.

So, when Sam's pulled the sneaky move of swapping the 18 count Premier Protein shake packs with the smaller 15 count Premier Protein shake packs, while keeping the price exactly the same - you know, reducing the product amount by 17% but not reducing the price at all - I was ticked off. But then I saw the Member's Mark version of the Premier Protein shakes ... in the old 18 count for the usual price. Ah, okay I see the game here. Anyway, I had hope when I saw this. I'm not necessarily brand loyal if there's a comparable alternative, so I was down with trying the MM brand protein shakes. Unfortunately, they only come in chocolate right now. Deep down I knew better than to buy these given that the chocolate flavor of the Premier Protein is the most disgusting, not-even-remotely-chocolate-flavored "chocolate" protein shakes. And these MM shakes are packaged and distributed by the same company that does the Premier Protein ones. But for some reason I had hope. Sadly, these Member's Mark chocolate protein shakes taste EXACTLY like the chocolate Premier Protein shakes ... which is to say, utterly disgusting and only tolerable if you chug them fast, avoiding any taste buds if possible - straight down the gullet. Now, my hope at this point is that Sam's Club will order these shakes from the supplier in the truly good Premier Protein shake flavors, like the Mocha, Peanut Butter Cup, or the BEST, the Caramel flavor. If we can get some 18 count packs of the Member's Mark (aka Premier Protein) protein shakes in THESE flavors for this same $22 price, then we'll be in business and Sam's Club will be rocking some great shakes at great prices. So now, we wait. But these chocolate ones are not worth a fraction of the cost, simply because of the awful flavor.

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.

These taste very similar to the premier protein ones in the box (I've never had the ones in the plastic bottle so I don't know if they taste the same). I usually get the Fairlife and they were out of stock, these do not compare in any way to those. But for a quick protein shake they're okay.

We bought these to try since you get 3 additional shakes, and they were about 20cents cheaper than Premier Protein; but the taste is not consistent across bottles, sometimes they're okay, sometimes their just barrable. If you like Premier Protein, just stick with it and pass this one up.

Cane on time as expected

Tasty and delicious

Great source of protein
