Stevia?

When did Stevia get added to the chocolate flavor ingredients? I don't recall seeing that originally. Used to love this until it tasted like alternate sugar, saw stevia on there alla sudden. Disappointing.

Love them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved these for a quick grab and go before having to go into the office. I was able to drink them while in the car. They tasted great and had no chalky texture.

Great breakfast drink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great breakfast drink for in the go. Easy to open and tastes great! The ingredients are good and go together well, it tastes great and is a good source of protein for the morning.

Great taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how these drinks are very filling and can easily be stored. The chocolate taste is great and does not taste artificial. These are great for when you want some energy but not a full meal.

Decent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are not good but they are not terrible. I definitely prefer the taste of the powder packet in milk. I do appreciate that it says it’s lactose intolerant friendly but the aftertaste is gross

Bad after taste due to Stevia

I went camping and thought this would be a great alternative to the powder mix I love so much. But NO, as soon as I drank one I knew it had STEVIA in it ! I can taste it and I hate it. To me it's as gross as Sucralose!

Too much sugar

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son really liked it but the sugar count was too high for me. Packaging is pretty on par with other brands. Consistency was about the same as others.

Creamy strawberry is yellow tastes like a vitamin

Not sure if it is normal but Creamy strawberry was yellow and tasted like a flinstones vitamin. Not a fan don't think I can get past the yellow color or the vitamin flavor, whatever it is sweetened with leaves a bitter aftertaste
