SO DISAPPOINTMENT WITH THE “IMPROVED” FORMULA! It tastes like a weak, watered-down chocolate drink, not at all like a shake. I WILL be changing to another brand after being a regular consumer of Muscle Milk Chocolate Shake formula for over 8 years! I drank one every day, sometimes two. I’ll drink the rest of the pack I purchased like I would drink medicine, but will not be purchasing more! Gave the product 2 stars only because it’s still nutritious, even though it’s no longer sugar-free.

The original flavor/formula was my kid’s safe food for breakfast for like the last 4 years. He refused this after one sip. I thought he was overreacting. Then I tried one this morning. I am super adaptable about my protein shakes and have never had one before this that I would actually call disgusting, but this one is, and now I have to suffer through 16 more of these so I don’t waste the money we spent on them while still finding an alternative source of protein my kid won’t refuse while he’s in the middle of a growth spurt. This is about $600/year we would spend on these that Sam’s won’t have any more, and since this was my main motivation for the membership, we may not renew next year if the original aren’t available again.

Insipid taste, tastes nothing like the regular 25 g muscle milk chocolate protein shake. I bought this 33g version of the product because Sam’s was out of my regular muscle milk. I will try to use up this purchase by mixing it with regular chocolate muscle milk.

I gave it one star because I couldn't go any lower, it is totally disgusting. it tastes awful and it's watery, it's nothing like The 25 g that I'm used to, If they don't bring back the original, I will never buy this brand again. I'm actively looking for another brand, after over 20 years of brand loyalty, didn't they do public taste test before switching?, whoever the moron was that approved this should be fired immediately

Not there best option

As usual when a company changes a recipe or is offering a tweak to its line up of products, they fail. The original which we bought many times from Sam's was great. Great Chocolate flavor. This is not, no chocolate flavor, will not recommend, nor we need to find another brand.

Horrible taste. This is like leftover milk from chocolate cereal. Weak muted taste in comparison to the 25 g that Sam’s discontinued. We were avid buyers of this and my wife and I would drink two a day, now it looks like we have to choose something else.

I see a lot of complaints about the flavor but honestly it’s super mild. It’s mildly sweet and mildly chocolately without any strong chemical or bitter tastes. I’m personally a much bigger fan of this Muscle Milk than the old version. In fact I’ve had lots of protein shakes worse than this. It’s easy to drink, it has 33 grams of protein, and doesn’t include sucralose, acesulfame potassium, or aspartame all of which mess with my gut. 9/10 protein shakes and bars include one of those 3 so when a product comes out that I can safely consume, it’s awesome. These use stevia which is great, and from what I can tell, not a lot of it. It has 11 grams of carbs including 3g of naturally occurring sugar and 2g of fiber. It’s ultra filtered milk, there are going to be carbs in it. 9g of net carbs is basically nothing. Even though I’m on a severe carb restriction, those macros are perfectly fine for me especially considering its insane nutrient density and low cost per gram of protein. Typical protein foods will cost around 10¢ per G of protein whereas these work out to 5¢ per gram of my math is correct. This will be one of the only 3 protein shakes I go for now, so I’m glad Sam’s has started carrying it so I can get it for a good price. Anyway, I felt the need to offset all the complaints happening because at the end of the day, it’s a protein shake. It’s a utility. The fact that it tastes even halfway decent is a blessing. If I want something super delicious, decadent, and indulgent, I’ll go buy a milkshake and take the calorie and nutritional hit. Not everything has to be the most palatable thing in existence. Review not sponsored. I just don’t want Sam’s to stop carrying it.

My husband drinks protein drinks every day, and loves this one

For the price , value the amount of protein yah can’t go wrong
