Pure Protein Frosty Chocolate Protein Shake, 35g Complete Protein, Ready to Drink and Keto-Friendly, Excellent Source of Calcium, 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)

Absolutely the BEST protein shake in existence! I've tried them all, and 99% suffer from the same problem—unpleasant taste, even a little: chalky taste, bitter taste, chemical taste, etc. These Pure Protein ones do not. At all. The "frosty chocolate" flavor ones I get are the absolute best of all the flavor varieties, and there is not one bit of an aftertaste or anything other than rich, sweet, delicious chocolate taste. Trust me on this; you'll love them! The other major reason I give these a 5-star review is because they have 35g of protein, more than any other protein drink of the same size. Most 12-oz or even 16-oz protein drinks range from 10 to 28g of protein, give or take. Not these—they're a nice, healthful 35g of protein, which is why they make excellent outright meal replacements & not just supplements like a snack or similar. I have been ordering these for over 6 years, at least, and love them! You will too. They're perfect as that protein boosting drink, or you can even use them as a meal replacement. UPDATED FEBRUARY 2023 I used to get this via monthly Subscribe and Save for around $22 to $28 per 12-pack. However, around late summer/early fall 2022, Amazon removed this product from its Subscribe and Save program. The sole reason for this action was due to the price of a 12-pack skyrocketing to just under 50 bucks! To say I was shell-shocked would be an understatement. As a result, I no longer purchase this product from Amazon, which really disappoints me, because as I've stated earlier, this is the best-tasting protein shake out there AND the one with the highest amount of protein at 35 grams. Why its price literally doubled here on Amazon is baffling. Because of that, I have had to purchase it elsewhere. It's still expensive where I now buy it, but it's at least less than Amazon's cost. UPDATED AUGUST 2, 2023 Within the last month, the price of this 12-pack has increased THREE times, skyrocketing to its current $95. It went from $78 to $89 to its current price on Aug. 2nd of $95, all in the last 4 weeks alone. That's absolutely insane! Factor in the sales tax, and who the heck is going to pay a hundred bucks for a 12-pack of protein shakes? I'm tempted to order the 12-pack of similar protein shakes advertised here and fortunately made by the same company, Pure Protein, to see how THOSE taste. Those come in the cardboard or paper-based, individual containers and are advertised here in a "rich chocolate" flavor option. Granted, they contain 14% less protein (30g compared to 35g) than the ones in the cans here, but that shouldn't be a major issue.

I was pretty skeptical about purchasing these shakes, because let's face it. What protein shake is actually delicious? This one is honestly REALLY good. It does have that sweetner after taste, but I can get past it. If you can drink diet soda these shouldn't be a problem at all. The taste reminds me of "diet yoohoo" if you can wrap your brain around that. I drank one for breakfast at about 9:30 this morning and it's almost 2:00 p.m. and I'm just barely starting to feel hungry again. I am planning to use them as meal replacements for weight loss. They have 35g of protein per shake which is AWESOME and really helps with cravings and hunger. For the price and convenience of them coming in a can I can see why they are the best seller! I will definitely be purchasing again.

I tried these but I think I prefer bottles or something better. These are very convenient, however, they have a slight metallic taste from the can (which I think is common for most things in cans or metal, so no big deal imo). Also, this SPRAYS a lot when I open it. Every single can I have opened has sprayed me or my surroundings. The whole point was that I wanted to take this to work, or on the go, and I was kind of embarrassed to open and drink this since it just sprays/spits on me. the flavor is fine, the value is fine. But I am realizing I am disliking canned drinks as a whole and I am preferring bottled drinks (sodas, waters, protein shakes) because they're resealable and better for travel and tend to spray less, and no slight metallic taste. If you like canned drinks and shakes, then these are for you! But if you think you already like bottled protein drinks, then stick with the bottles and pass on these.

This has a good protein to carb ratio (35 grams of protein to only 5 grams of carbs, two of which are from fiber), so if you are doing a low-carb or keto diet, it is great for that. The flavor is okay, but the stuff does settle at the bottom of the cans, so you definitely want to shake it up before you put the cans in the fridge and a few minutes before you drink it. It is not carbonated so it will not spray all over the place if you shake it before you open it, but if you do try to open the can right after shaking it, a bit may spray out the top so you want to do it over a sink. But, if you shake it and let it sit for a minute or two, that will not be an issue. I definitely recommend drinking it cold, because it tastes much better cold than it does warm.

These are the best tasting protein shakes ever. I am a post gastric bypass patient and these are doctor approved for me. My doctor is very strict on what we can use and he endorses these shakes for immediately post surgery and even for me that is 9 years post surgery now. I prefer the chocolate but have had all of the other flavors except vanilla. I really didn't care for the cookies and creme. These are also great if you are wanting to diet and better than using any of the other prompted shakes for weight loss. These have lots more grams of protein and no sugar and very few carbs. I have recommended these to many of my friends and co-workers and so far everybody has loved them and enjoy the taste. They are great for people on the go and tend to skip meals, especially breakfast. I have one for breakfast lots of mornings.

The Pure Protein shake is great. It tastes good with excellent nutrition. However, each shipment I receive has dented cans which are clearly dented before they are shrinkwrapped in the manufacturer's case pack. This assessment is based on cans being dented within the case pack on the inner areas of the case pack. There was no damage to the exterior of the case pack, and Amazon expertly packed and shipped the product, as usual. It is always concerning as a consumer to see unmitigated quality control issues, as it begs the question - are there other QC issues the manufacturer is overlooking which we cannot see? I'm currently conflicted about continuing to purchase the product, as visible issues of this nature are a red flag. I have a reasonably high level of confidence dented but not punctured cans are not going to create a problem with the liquid protein shake inside. I have a Subscribe and Save purchase set up, and will see how the next shipment comes in.

These things are terrible. They taste awful and it comes in a pressurized can that you shake?? Really? So of course it explodes on me because I am not expecting a chocolate flavored soda for a protein drink. If you want something better with almost as much protein (30g) and more vitamins, go with Premier Protein. Tastes way better and is not pressurized. Plus, they have more vitamins. I have consumed many different protein shakes and I had high hopes for these based on the reviews, but they are just too awful to give a high rating. I will never buy these again and might even dump the rest down the drain. Oh, and these are too expensive to boot. 12 cans for $27 when I can get 18 Premier Protein shakes at Costco for the same price or less. 2 chocolate covered thumbs down.

This is hand's down the best pre-mixed protein shake that I've tried. Not only is it great nutritionally, it also tastes really good compared to most other shakes. I despise protein bars and shakes that are overly artifically sweeted, like they're trying to convince you that you're really eating a Snickers bar or something. These have a nice, mild milk chocolate taste to them that isn't too rich or so sweet. I'm the kind of person who always gets a growly stomach after a good workout. These shakes pretty much eradicate that hunger and keep me from overeating after exercising. They're filling enough that I don't feel artifically bloated or stuffed, but keep the munchies away until I can fix myself a good, healthy breakfast or dinner. They're not designed to be meal replacement shakes, so I've never used them that way and I don't recommend that you try. They have plenty of nutritional value, but not enough to healthily sustain you for an entire meal. You'll just get hungrier later and binge eat. As a pre-/post-workout snack, though, they're golden.

I like them bust the ret of the family thinks there’s no after taste

Average taste, a bit chalky. Several cans had small dents.
