FUEL FOR FIREProtein Smoothie Pouch - Variety (24-Pack) | 6 Flavors | Healthy Snack & Recovery | No Sugar Added, Dietitian Approved | Functional Fruit Smoothies | Gluten Free, Kosher (4.5oz pouches)

ExcellentPros: shelf stable, good macros, no added sugar,sugar alcohols or fillers; all flavors are tasty, easier to digest than other whey proteins I’ve tried, taste good refrigerated or room temp, easy storage, convenient, texture is like a milkshake or yogurt and mess free, minimal packaging. I’d prefer a non plastic lid.Flavors: Tropical mango, coconut, pineapple are a good combination of sweet and tangyBerry: mostly strawberry and not as sweet as the others, but I like the unsweetened fresh picked berry taste. The banana balances it out well.Cacao banana: My favorite. Like a less sweet banana split sundae. Enough cacao to add richness and body balanced by the smooth sweetness or the banana.Coffee: a mild latte flavor with a hint of mocha. A less sweet version of cover I’ve cream.Strawberry Banana: Nice strawberry slightly tart balanced by the banana sweetness. For x era and up, this and the tropical flavor will remind them of Orange Julius Drinks in the best wayCons: expensive, but on a $ per nutrient level basis, reasonable; they contain whey and it can be hard for many to digest. If you are not a milk person, these may still work, but consume several hours before bedtime. When used as a late night snack, I’ve had some indigestion from the whey. Used at any other time, though, no problem.Bottom line: These are great for a filling snack or a small meal on the go. All of the flavors are delicious. I recommend them all, but would only use the cacao or coffee earlier than midday as they both have a slight caffeine kick. Give them a try.

These are so good - I like them. Perfect for a pre or post workout protein snack. They are convenient, and healthy. I like all the flavors - thought my favorites were sweet potato apple and then banana cocoa but now I like the variety packs because it's nice to mix it up! The coffee one is great for mornings - a little extra energy! I like that they are all around 100 calories. Sometimes I struggle in workouts because I don't want to eat a meal before hand, but then I'm starving. If I eat "real" food - I feel full and sluggish. These fit the bill perfectly - energy and protein and I don't feel super stuffed before a workout!

These smoothie squeeze drinks are very good. I use them as a morning break and they keep you full until lunch. They taste good, have a good texture and Varity.

While my spouse teases me that I'm eating baby food, I gladly consume these delicious, protein packed pouches ( say that 3 times fast! ). They are great for tossing in my backpack and for trips when food isn't offered on the flight. Love all the flavors but mixed berry is my favorite.

I have gotten these locally at wegmans and they were great. I ordered them off of amazon and they were horribly watered down and I have never had them watered down at the grocery store. I couldn't eat any of them bc they were so gross filled with water. I even tried to mix it all together by pressing on the pouches and moving the contents around but it didnt work. Also they taste weird but they're perfectly fine from the store. I wont order again.

I’m obsessed. I bought these to have in the hospital while in labor and have been a godsend for eating with one hand and a baby in the other. Every flavor is delicious and the nutritional profile is great - no added sugar or artificial sugar, and a little slice of protein!

Packaging is nice including liking the ease of use. However, no matter the flavor…. Which they have many, which is amazing!! The overall flavor, now trialed by my 3 teens and myself is ehhh no thanks, and hmm chalky. Just really hard to overcome. May try to mix it with something else to see if we can make it more palatable, especially since it cannot be returned. Also, twice now two people in my family have had diarrhea… we isolated foods to nothing new the second time having these and pretty sure it’s something in these that doesn’t sit right with us. So, check your quality control, please.Now the next bit that gets me is that it’s aimed for kids to athletes which should have a 3:1 or 4:1 carb:protein ratio for pre to post workout or also endurance/recovery. I’m a bit confused why a dietitian would back the fad diets for “low carb”, so honestly a bit disappointed.

The first one I tried, I didn't like it. However, once I put them in the refrigerator, and tried them chilled, they were great. It's definitely a consistency thing - if you don't like GU or other squeezable stuff, you may not like these pouches. I was thinking they might be good squeezed into another smoothie, as the flavor is very natural and not sugary tasting. I have not tried that yet, but I will be this weekend.I'm hooked and I think they are worth a try.
