Core Power Protein Shake, Strawberry Banana, 26g Bottle, 14oz, 12 Pack

I love these shakes! I order vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry banana. The taste is great, and so is the nutrition. I am lactose intolerant, and these do not bother me. They are lactose free, so I don't need to take a pill. I drink 1, sometimes 2 per day to boost my protein. I try to eat at least 150 grams of protein per day - more is better though. These shakes, along with some lifestyle changes helped me lose over 40 pounds.I am 44 year old female with 2 kids and a lot of old injuries that I have rehabbed. I am back to an active lifestyle with weightlifting, yoga, and cardio. Love these shakes as a post workout snack or in the morning when I am too busy to make eggs, chicken sausage, and fruit (my typical breakfast).These are balanced nutrition. Yes, there are carbs and natural sugars. These are actually good for you if you are an active individual for muscle recovery. I wouldn't recommend for someone who is doing keto or adkins, due to the carbs and sugars. For most people, these are solid and I recommend them.

Tastes really good. Good protein source

The strawberry banana flavor is just as good as the chocolate. No gritty texture or aftertaste. I am on a keto diet and can drink several while remaining in ketosis. I am now able to maximize my daily protein.

Love these. No weird taste. Tastes like a strawberry banana smoothie. I love all the fair life core power flavors. Yes they can be on the pricey side but to me it's worth it knowing that they are good quality and are going to taste great.

I love these drinks. Protein is smooth and easy to drink with great flavor. Convenient to grab and take to work in a hurry.

The shakes were delivered on time, and were within their expiration date (noting only because some reviews indicated that expired products were received).The flavor is okay, I prefer the plain strawberry but they weren't available at the time of order. The strawberry banana flavor is fine, just not my preferred flavor.My one gripe is that the case of shakes were packaged in a box with other items (that's totally fine) but the case of shakes looked like they had been dropped and dragged across the warehouse floor before being packaged (there was NO way the packer didn't notice the condition of the case). I threw away three bottles of the shake as they were so badly mangled I didn't trust them, by some miracle these three bottles didn't leak during shipping. After taking the plastic off the case, and examining the bottles, the three leaked a bit in the spots where the plastic was worn thin from being dragged/scuffed.So in short, the shakes are fine but whoever was responsible for packing/shipping these really should have better controls in place.

An update to my original review.My roommate received the delivery it 4:39 this morning. This is the best protein shake you'll ever have and it does not have any aftertaste. I feel like I'm drinking flavored milk.

Great taste
