The taste is amazingly good and ingredients are all natural. Very low calories. I am hooked!

Good taste. Good protein.

So, I used to drink Premier Protein shakes after exercising. 30g protein, but they're milk-based, and I had to take a lactase pill with each shake. Then I find out that sucralose does a number on my gut. Lo and behold, these Shakes gave sucralose. Next, I tried Orgain vegan shakes. Not bad, though only 20 g of protein. No sucralose, but over 500 mg of sodium! When you have high blood pressure, that's way too much. Over the course if a year that would be an extra 100,000 mg of sodium. Happened to see Slate shakes in Costco, and, although it's a dairy product, it contains lactase enzyme. Costco only carried the Classic Chocolate, but even though I'd rather have vanilla, I gave it a try. Only 100 calories, which is important, because you don't burn as many calories working out as you think. It has never given me any problems with my gut. Then Costco stopped carrying it (if you're a Costco shopper, you know that feeling). Went online and discovered they have other flavors. Ah, my chance to get vanilla, but then I looked at the sodium content, and the French Vanilla had 260 mg, the Classic Chocolate 220mg, and the Dark Chocolate only 160mg. I was sold. Again, not my ideal flavor, but, in the end, I'm an equal opportunity sweets eater, so I've learned to enjoy it. If they could put less sodium in the French Vanila (hint hint), I'd be in heaven.

I really wanted to like this healthy protein drink, especially since it looked so much like chocolate milk in the advertisements. The idea of enjoying a delicious chocolate milk-like beverage while getting a good dose of protein was very appealing to me. I was extremely excited to try it, but unfortunately, it somewhat disappointed me in a few aspects. Firstly, the drink’s texture and taste didn’t quite meet my expectations. While it wasn’t bad, it lacked the rich, thick taste that one would expect from something that looks like chocolate milk. The flavor was somewhat weak and didn’t have the indulgent, creamy consistency that I was hoping for. I found myself wishing it had a more robust chocolate taste to better mimic the experience of drinking actual chocolate milk. Additionally, I would advise potential buyers to take a close look at the nutrition label before making a purchase. While it’s marketed as a healthy protein drink, the nutritional content might not be as diet-friendly for everyone as it appears. Depending on your specific dietary needs and restrictions, you might find that it doesn’t fit as well into your diet as you’d hoped. For instance, it might contain more sugar or calories than you’d expect from a protein drink. Overall, it’s not a bad product. It has its merits, especially if you’re looking for a convenient way to boost your protein intake. However, it could be improved by having a richer, thicker style of taste that better aligns with the chocolate milk image it promotes. While it didn’t quite hit the mark for me, it might still be a good option for those who are less particular about the texture and taste, and more focused on the nutritional benefits.

It’s really hard to find a true dark chocolate tasting protein shake that’s already made. This is one of two I’ve found. I love the taste, and if you truly like dark chocolate, buy it. I mix it with iced coffee every morning fore breakfast. Keeps me full until lunch or later! I will say that even though the directions say to “shake gently”, I give it a good long shake to make sure there’s no clumps and it’s smooth. Just make sure to open it very very slowly after shaking it hard, because it will foam and if you open too quick it will spray on your hands. Still my favorite chocolate protein shake.
