PES, please send me all the dented tubs from now on.. I don't "do it for the gram" I do it for the gains. At the insanely great insider pricing on such superior product, I cant see how people can find a reason to b!tch.

Sealed WCM?

Lucky
My Whey Protein intake daily is 0-1 scoops. I maybe use 5 scoops a week max. This will last me quite a long time.
I just prefer whole foods in general, and hence why i can hold onto exclusive flavors for a longer duration.

I got my shipment of Peanut Butter Cookie today.

My initial thought is that it's right up there with Vanilla and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup for me as a top flavor. It tastes exactly like Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup minus the chocolate.

PES Peanut Butter Cookie Select



Video:

Taste

Peanut Butter Cookie

The image on the select tub is of mini peanut butter cookies. Upon first taste you are immediately hit with the peanut butter flavoring. The PB flavoring is not as rich and dense as Metabolic PB Cookie , Gaspari PB Cookie, or Syntha 6 PB Cookie. If you take a PB2 or PB Lean powder enhance that with a bolder peanut butter flavor and that is what you are presented with. It is not a Peanut butter like you eat right out of a jar with a slightly salty aftertaste. What you do get from PES’s PB Cookie is a combination of marshmallow and a sense of a sweet sugar cookie in the aftertaste (which compliments the filling of the PB Cookie). I enjoyed this Peanut Butter variation over Peanut Butter Cup. If you like a “Sweeter” Peanut Butter flavor this will be right up your alley.



My Ranking of Select Flavors:
1. Vanilla
2. White Chocolate Mint
3. Peanut Butter Cookie
4. SnickerDoodle
5. Frosted Chocolate Cupcake
6. Peanut Butter Cup
7. Cookies & Cream




Mixability

For those who have had PES Select they know it mixes with ease. Even as a blend the protein powder has no problems or leaves no clumps. I prefer the thicker protein shakes or protein pudding. I found that Peanut Butter Cookie is like FCC, CnC, and PBC as it does not mix as thick as some of the other flavors on the line. White Chocolate Mint, Vanilla, and SD all have a thicker consistency.
The Shake I made below was 6oz of cashew milk, 1.5 Scoops and 7 ice cubes.



Formula



1.5g Fat
3g Carb
24g Protein

A very macro friendly protein powder. With the price point it makes it easy to fit in on a daily basis compared to others who may exceed 150-180 kcals per serving. The blend of protein included in Select combine to form a thicker protein powder.. I personally enjoy it because I make a lot of protein pudding and enjoy baking. Both which come out perfectly with 0 issues. I wish more companies would create blends that match their label 100% even when tested by stack3d came back above what the label claims.



Cost

Can’t beat 20$ a tub on the insider deal. After the insider you may see prices rise to $25-30 for a 2lb tub. If you missed out on the insider at the special price I feel bad for you. PES is one of the most cost effective options on the market. Makes it very good for an everyday use protein. Not to mention it's a blend so it does mix thicker for those who enjoy thick protein pudding or protein shakes, and it bakes flawlessly.

I'm not a huge fan...although I'm not a big fan of vanilla either! Right now it's FCC > SD > WCM > GV > CNC. I'm not ranking CPBC because it's been over a year since I've had it. But I ordered a small tub with my PBC, both of which should be arriving soon. So there just may be a mix up in rankings.

meh.....I didn't really care for it. I was a big fan of Blondie (rip), which I regret that I missed an opportunity to buy more. PBC, FCC are my faves, and hoping that the new one ranks up there also. Mine should be here by the end of the week.

Got my 4 tubs in yesterday. Brought one to work with me today and just cracked it open.

Not sure if they're all like this or I just got one that didn't have a tear line, but I couldn't get the plastic off and as a man, I took it upon myself to waste several minutes swearing I could do it without tools before finally breaking down and using a knife that was about 5 feet away from me...lol. Positive -- no mice getting into those PES tubs ;) lol

Scent upon opening -- definitely the smell of a peanut butter cookie; distinctly has that cookie part and not just PB. However, slight (very slight) hint of chemical odor to it. Nothing bad at all and not a turn off, but just something that's "not natural" that accompanies the delicious scent of the pb cookie.

Mixability -- way better than vanilla. I was ready to curse you guys with that one as it constantly clumped up on me (regardless of shaker type, choice of liquid, or volume of liquid) and it had that little static issue with the scoop where flakes of powder would jump all over the place every time I went to use it. None of those issues here. I'll normally use a flavor of CarbMaster milk, but I just went with 8 oz. exactly of water (measured), shook it up in my shaker and it was GTG.

Flavor -- I'm honestly really looking forward to using milk and also attempting to bake with this. Because I seemed to get two flavors and I'll explain the best I can. I got an incredible taste of a peanut butter cookie. You guys nailed it. But then there was almost a taste of water. It's strange and I can't seem to recall experiencing this before. It's almost as if I was tasting two entirely different things with each sip. So it's not bad by any means on that second one, but it's just like it's watered down and almost nothing. I only did one scoop, so I'll see how it goes with less volume, as well as using milk and I'll share my thoughts. Maybe using 6 oz. instead would have eliminated it; I'm not sure. But that initial flavor upon each sip is wonderful.

As of right now, this has probably taken my top spot in the select lineup. I've yet to try FCC or the updated WCM, though. Vanilla is last for me (you can all yell at me all you want lol, that's how I feel!) and then I'd probably rank OG WCM ahead of it, then Blondie, then CPBC, then Snickerdoodle. It's been ages since I tried a sample of CNC, so I can't remember it, but I wasn't shook by it.

So, kudos on this, PES. I'll update once I have more sampling under my belt.

Updated WCM is unreal. It is virtually like 70% white chocolate and 30% mint. You can taste the mint, but its all aftertaste. Hence why I love it so much (coming from a mint hater). That shows how much PES covered it up.

not to mention the powder is incredibly thick. The shakes it makes are thick smoothies.

Hearing that makes me disappointed I didn't get in on the re-release, but I can live without it. I would have been angry had it been too similar to the original run and I dropped coin on it. OG isn't bad, mind you, just not what I wanted and so strong on the peppermint side that it wore on me very quickly.

Makes incredible protein pudding.

Do the PES reps believe that company will be bringing WCM back again this next holiday season as re-occurring seasonal flavor, or do you all believe the company would go with a different seasonal themed flavor? Bascially do we see WCM again this holiday this season, a different holiday flavor, or no seasonal at all?

I bought to many tubs of it and I really liked it at first and than I got tired of the mint, next time it comes out (if it does, I will just buy one) Pumpkin would be good this holiday season !!

The PB cookie tub is pretty damn strong in aroma just cracking the lid, so it carries over into the baking.
Think about it a regular PB cookie is what 120-150 kcals? Pending the size of course... These are not far behind at 112 calories per cookie.

If you enjoy them, let me know what else you want me to bake with the PB Cookie before you leave, and ill ship it up.
I tried a new spin on a cookie recipe for these PB cookies, so I hope I did not goof it up.

I want to say thanks a lot to The Solution for baking me this great cookies and thanks PES for this great new flavour!!!

Macros -->
IMG_0368.png


Taste -->
they taste like normal peanut butter cookies, great flavour, not too much overpowering and feels like there's also some buttery after taste which is appreciate, the nuts flavour is delicate but perfect

Consistency -->
they are soft like butter cookies (at least those ones I remember as I am not having butter cookies since a long time) they literally melt in your mouth leaving a nice peanut taste behind

They stay so soft because I put them on bread. Italian trick my grandmother taught me.
If you make cookies and let them just sit out they start to get pretty hard. Plus when shipping the bread helps secure the cookies so they don't get beat around like baseballs in your package. That would leave you with scraps. Then it would be no bueno :(

What was better the PB or SnickerDoodle? I tried a new recipe on the PB ones.

it's hard to say, I just had one so I would need more time to appreciate better but.... I guess the PB are slightly better man :p dunno if it's just cause of the new flavour or something but probably slightly better..... the SDs were unreal too tho!

I sure hope this is the case because I enjoyed the revamped model so much more! Would be a shame to not see it again especially since I severely under stocked it.

lol

Yeah, yeah, I know.

But it was two distinctly separate tastes. That's the odd thing. I can't recall getting that before. I'll be trying a scoop in the office again today with less water and then over the weekend will try it with some milk (may try it with the chocolate CarbMaster milk, too).

Given that water is tasteless, tasting it in product makes no sense to me.
