I was extremely excited to try the achievONE ready to drink protein shakes. I have seen them advertised everywhere and I just *knew* they were going to be great!
Oh, the disappointment.
I ordered the variety pack from netrition.com. It gives you one of each of their flavors; Mocha Java, Hazelnut Creme, chocolate, vanilla, cappuccino, and vanilla nut.
Of course, I tried the Mocha Java first. I described it to my huband as tasting like the milk left over in the bottom of the cereal bowl. Some people might like that. I don't. There was almost no coffee flavor what so ever. I disliked it so much, I didn't bother drinking the whole thing.
Hubby tried the hazelnut creme and was gracious enough to give me a few sips. More flavor in this one. Sweeter, but in a fake, manufactured kind of way. More palatable than the Mocha Java, but still wouldn't waste precious calories on it.
Cappuccino had much more coffee flavor. Still had a fake sweet taste.
I have yet to try the cocolate, vanilla and vanilla nut. I will update soon with the results.
So far, these are NOT worth the money, especially seeing as, besides the little variety pack, you can only purchase these by the case, which will run you almost $50.
Please note: I am a huge Click Espresso Protein Powder fan. I mean HUGE. As in, I cannot imagine life without it. So, this is my basis for comparison.
