Perfect for a tasty on the go pick me up!

Loved these! Great for a quick snack. Super tasty and holds me over between lunch and breakfast perfectly. Great for on the go too! I do not find fishy at all like some reviews say, maybe it is placebo for some from the marketing of the additional omega-3s? I would be curious to see if those who commented such would say the same thing if that was not marketed.

Satisfying Paste

This is more a smooth, thick, nutrient paste than a smoothie. But it's barely sweet, with a neutral apple taste (I didn't taste the banana or Omega Threes). The fact that it's a clean portable snack is what I like most. And it's pretty satisfying as well without you immediately wanting another.

Top Notch Travel Snack

My kids loved these! They are a much thicker consistency than the typical fruit pouches, so probably more difficult for younger ones to eat. But for older kids and adults, these are a delicious and easy snack option. Great for traveling or on-the-go!

I barely ever write reviews

I had high hopes for these Brainiac Protein Smoothies, but the taste was honestly awful. The strawberry banana flavor should be simple and enjoyable, but instead it had a really strange, fishy aftertaste that made it hard to even finish one pouch. It's especially noticeable after the first few sips and just lingers in a very unpleasant way. I'm guessing it might be from the added omega-3s, but whatever the reason, it completely ruins the flavor. Even my kids, who usually love smoothies, refused to drink it after one try. For something marketed as a kid-friendly, healthy snack, the taste is a huge miss. I wouldn't buy this again or recommend it unless the formula changes—because right now, it's just not enjoyable at all.

A Go-To Snack That Gets the Job Done

I've been using this protein smoothie for about three weeks now, and I really like it. It's thick, filling, and packed with protein, so it keeps me satisfied longer than most options. One day at work I was starving, grabbed a packet, and it held me over for a few hours. Now I'll reach for one late at night if I'm craving something, since it's low in sugar and actually satisfying. The only thing that caught me off guard at first was the texture. When you hear “protein smoothie,” you expect something smooth and drinkable. This is much thicker, more like yogurt. It took a little getting used to, but now I don't mind it at all. Overall, I'm a big fan. Hope they keep making it and that Sam's Club keeps carrying it.

Nice and convenient

I really like the taste and the smoothness. I was a little thrown off by the comments but decided to try anyway and I love them and mu family does as well. Everyone's different but I'm happy I tried and this is my 3rd time buying

The Perfect On-The-Go Snack for Families

Brainiac smoothies have become a staple in our house. They're the perfect size for kids and super convenient for lunchboxes, car rides, or a quick snack between activities...especially when carting them from one activity to the other. They love the flavor and I love the added protein. We're big Brainiac Foods fans in our house and love waht they are doing to help us sneak in brain nutrients so I was thrilled when they added these to their lineup!

Hooray for Healthy Snacks

Thank you Sam's Club and Wal-Mart for carrying Brainiac Protein smoothies! My grandchildren love these and I love that they are low in sugar and high in protein and Omega's. I keep them on hand for healthy snacks, take them with us to the park or long car rides. I hope you start selling more if their products. They make healthy pouches for babies too!

Nasty

These were nasty. The smoothie itself was white and smelled like old protein shakes that have gone bad. The taste was just as bad. It wasn't even about being sweet or anything it just tasted like old powdery protein shake. Took one taste of one pouch and promptly returned them.

Great for Kids, Surprisingly Good for Adults Too

I picked these up to keep on hand when my grandkids visit, and they've been a big hit. The strawberry banana flavor is a favorite and the size is perfect for a quick snack. What I didn't expect is that I'd end up enjoying them too. The added protein makes them more satisfying than a typical fruit pouch, so I'll grab one myself when I need something quick. They taste fresh, not overly sweet, and it feels good knowing the kids are getting some extra nutrition. Definitely something I'll keep stocked when they come over.
