Equate Protein Shake, Vanilla, 11 fl oz, 12 Count

These shakes have 30 grams of protein and the texture is smooth, not chalky or with a funky aftertaste. I am so happy that I gave them a try because they are less expensive and taste better than some expensive brands that I have chunked into the trash can.

My dr informed me my protein levels were too low for healing after surgery. He recommended protein shakes either powder, I'd need to mix or pre-made (my choice) such as Walmart's brand. Walmart's brand, while cheaper is still costly when you need to drink 3 per day just to get levels up HOWEVER... it did the trick. Plus, between the cheaper than brand name GV brand non fat Greek yogurt AND one protein shake daily (I prefere the caramel flavor... oh yummy) I've been able to keep my protein level up with the shakes, the yogurt and other food based proteins. I've not seen Walmart have a "sale" on pre-made shakes but I have found them cheaper on a rival platform and occasionally I'll stock up on that. Overall the Walmart brand is a solid choice I'd recommend if you need to boost you protein levels for any reason

The chocolate is really good especially super cold from the back of the fridge. You can also blend it with banana or what you like. It's not thick and icky like ensure and some of the other meal replacements. I hate breakfast so but I will take 30g protein with 160 calories for 12 for $20 everyday of the week.

I have Neuropathy in my feet which includes much swelling. But I've noticed the swelling has gone down since using Equate chocolate Protein Shake on a regular basis. I've tried to see if something rlse was reducing the swelling. but I keep coming back to Equate Protein Shakes.

I started drinking these shakes back in 2020. I was getting ready for bariactric surgery. Drank 3 or 4 aday and they helped me to lose weight to get my surgery. I continued drinking them until they went fron $15 to $21 after COVID. (So stupid) I started drinking them again but only 1 aday seeing I really can't afford them anymore. The 1 aday helps me get a little more protein to continue to lose weight. The taste is great considering other brands taste like medicine to me. There smooth and just thick enough to seem like a shake.

I've been buying these for 5 years now and when they switched to the blue boxes recently it seems like every couple of cases taste funny, but then you will get one that taste just fine. Not sure the reason and not sure what do about it so I'm going to switch once I run out. :(

So disappointed!! Purchased these for years %26 enjoyed them, however when my husband %26 I recently opened the latest box, we immediately noticed a definite chemical taste that was also brassy-metallic tasting. We then read some reviews %26 discovered the ingredients had changed. We always have plenty in our home stock so by the time we opened the box with new ingredients, the return date had expired. So now we're stuck with 2 boxes (22 count left of chocolate flavor %26 our money gone down the drain! Disgusting- it was fine %26 didn't need changing!

I really wanted to like these, because they were so much cheaper than the Orgain, which has become too expensive. However, they tasted almost medicinal, and I felt a bit sick after drinking it. The aftertaste was nauseating. Unfortunately, I'm stuck with 11 more of these. But I will not be buying them again.

I buy these shakes for years every month for years but there's something wrong with this batch. Totally congealed and difficult to get out of carton, taste not as good or normal either. If the next carton I open is the same I'm taking my 2 cases back

They not only changed the packaging but also the formula/recipe for these shakes. I was buying them all the time. I had one daily with my coffee. Sometimes a 2nd one to make sure I was getting enough protein in for the day. Then the change came, pretty boxes were nice. The shakes were thinner in texture than the previous ones, the color was similar, the taste... the taste was like water. So my son said "you know how things go in manufacturing " so, ok. Ordered more, these are still sitting in the corner half used,vanilla and chocolate, can't drink them because they taste like chemicals. It's so sad because I'd finally found 2 flavors in a brand that was to terribly expensive or hard to get. Now, I'm on that search again.
