Labrada Lean Body RTD - 500 ml (Pack of 12, Salted Caramel)

Purchased through Amazon at a great value for a great protein drink and great flavor!

I began picking these up on my morning route to work at a gas station I stopped at nearly every morning. I tried every flavor and found the Salted Caramel and Strawberry to be my favorites. Hands down, though, this one rocks. I buy the 12 packs now to have on hand, primarily for mornings. If you're like me, sometimes you're "in-between" on breakfast and not hungry enough for a full meal, but you need something to hold you over until lunch. This does it. I like the flavor because it's not medicinal in the aftertaste like the Chocolate and some others are. Buying them by the case saves you around $.75 to a buck per drink., too.

I've been drinking these for years. I usually get one at a time from the gym after my workouts but that became costly. I was happy to find the case on Amazon as I can't find them locally in my city. They are a great meal replacement if you want to get your protein intake without the calories. I drink them as a meal replacement after lifting weights when I want to stay lean. I love the salted caramel flavor.

I had been buying Salted the Lean Body Caramel Protein Shake for a while. I love the taste and the 40g protein packages. It is by far the best tasting salted caramel shake I have tried.But... they always have big chunks of un-filtered or un-blended product in them, and this has seemed to have gotten worse recently. These chunks, especially the larger ones, are kinda gross - very unpleasant to have slide into your mouth when drinking.I hope the company upgrades their processes with improved filtering or blending to eliminate these blobs from their drinks. If so, I will be back for lots more of the Salted Caramel. Meanwhile, I have moved on to other brands that don't have this problem.

Just before I opened my first bottle, I noticed the bottle said, "0 Sugar" and I got a little worried, I hadn't noticed that before I purchased the 12 pack. Then I tried a sip. Then another. Seriously. zero sugar?? How do you get flavor like this without ANY grams of sugar? Not sure what they use but damn, it is rich and very full of flavor that tastes for all the world like genuine sugar was used.The Salted Caramel flavor was another huge plus. Tastes absolutely fantastic. After drinking, I noticed I genuinely felt no more hunger. In truth I wasn't starving before I began my shake, but afterwards, I was quite surprised at just how long it was before I felt hungry again. For those looking for a meal replacement/intermittent fasting type diets, I can't recommend these enough. I WILL definitely be buying more, and trying new flavors, too. Previously I had purchased the "Premiere Protein" shakes and had tried both strawberries and cream and peaches and cream flavors...neither impressed me much. Always seemed like I was drinking something "diet"...whereas Lean Body doesn't give me that feeling at all. It tastes so good you'll be wondering whether or not you're cheating on your diet.Kudos Lean Body. Great stuff.
