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.

I never write reviews but the taste on this is horrific. The texture doesn't win any awards but a flavor so fishy needs a stronger flavor to cover it up. I'm going to attempt to feed these to the garbage.

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!

Really tasty and surprisingly filling! The strawberry banana flavor is smooth and not overly sweet, and I like that it has good protein and no added sugars. It gave me a nice energy boost and kept me full for longer than I expected for a small pouch. Super convenient for a quick snack on the go. The only thing I would complain about is the consistency was a little too thick, other than that it was great

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!

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.

My children (3 yr old boy/girl twins) absolutely loves these. So thankful to have an easy protein source that they enjoy! We start their day with these every morning and it buys me time to prepare their breakfast. They beg for these every day. I love that they are primarily clean, though I do wish they did not contain “natural flavors”. I love that there's very little sugar. We have no complaints.

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.

It's so thick it almost chokes you, the flavor isn't as bad as other protein products, but the thickness.. 🤮

This has become my go to morning snack! Keeps me full and I love that I am also getting my omegas at the same time. Was a bit thicker than expected but it has totally grown on me.
