You got me interested. I think Beverly UMP is the best chocolate but haven’t tried Xtend Pro yet.
It’s that good I bought more of it and the cookie butter flavor, and believe it or not I like the cookie butter better than the chocolate...they are both that good.
 
So Xtend nailed this flavor when they called it Molten Chocolate Cake. It’s legit. Might be the best chocolate protein powder I’ve had.

It sure is not the 80's any more then all proteins tasted like chalk !!
 
Huge shoutout to @Afi140 for selling this to me at a great price! I’ve really enjoyed this pre and was happy to get my hands on another tub. Lightning quick shipping and he even threw a couple samples!

Thanks again brother!

I hate the miss labeling of these products. "4 grams net carbs" ... Each bar has 23grams of carbs (one gram of sugar) soluble corn fibre.

They are trying to mis-lead the uneducated

I’ve seen a lot of conflicting info on soluble corn fiber but it doesn’t seem to have any significant impact on blood glucose. Anecdotally I can eat 2 quest bars and not get kicked out of ketosis
 
I personally don't 100% agree with it because I work with Type I and Type II diabetics who eat quest bars see their BG shoot up.

Damn that’s interesting for sure, assuming these are the new quest bars not the old ones with IMO right?

Definitely recall reading a study that compared IMO, SCF, and placebo. IMO had a big impact on blood glucose but SCF and PLA group had no significant differences, will see if I can find it when I have the time. I eat quest bars pretty regularly, hasn’t seemed to have an impact on my urine ketone levels but definitely interested to learn more here

That's what I like to see! Someone hip to dosing Lugol's Iodine! Unreal how many benefits it has. Literally knocked out the "can't get off my couch flu" in 6 hours for me. Dosed to a protocol online at 5-8 drops of 5% every 2 hours, from 8am to about 4pm, I literally sat up on my couch, the FLU was GONE and I was able to work out. Couldn't believe it seeing/feeling it in real time like that.
 
I like it but first impression is that it’s not their best flavor. I have only had only in a shaker with water. Will try it later in a blender- I think it will prob make a difference with the thick mix ins of cookies.

Noted it is way better than man’s cookie stuffed cookie which was absolutely terrible

What do you do for a blender mix? Scoop of protein, water, ice, milk?

What do you dose on maintenance?
 
Finally popped my Bang cherry. I was on vacation and decided to lift one more time than expected so I was out of pwo sample packets. Sh!t hit me good! Surprised it was only $2 at gas station. I was eating way too much and GDAs can only do so much, ha.

I've been doing a scoop of the Chips Ahoy protein with 6oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk, ice, and some sugar free chocolate syrup blended in.

I have tried the Chip Ahoy in
Oats - OK
Water - Not very good
Almond Milk - Pretty Good

@kjkitzman "man’s cookie stuffed cookie" one of the worst proteins I ever bought !!
 
Added the Muscle Marinade to put me over the $100 free shipping threshold. I think I'm good on protein for a while considering I already had about 10 lbs :)

Invalid Link RemovedThanks to @The Solution this package was 100% free.
These protein crisp are amazing, basically a rice crispy treat with a layer of chocolate on the bottom, birthday cake mix in the middle, and chocolate drizzled on top. Very very good imo. Different than the ordinary protein bar.
 
I got the peanut butter bars and they are very good also !!

I almost pulled the trigger on that Muscle Marinade deal, but have never had it or saw any reviews on it. Let me know how you like it.
 




Quest Nutrition Cinnamon Roll Protein Bar Review



Invalid Link Removed



Taste



Cinnamon Roll -



This is the new and improved Cinnamon Roll Quest Bar. The new bar contains chunk inclusions, more cinnamon roll flavor, and a drizzled topping. The bar base provides a subtle buttery undertone like a fresh baked cinnamon roll that is enhanced by the cinnamon flavor. Where the bar really shines Is the icing glaze and chunk inclusions. The glaze on top packs a luscious sweetness that resembles a vanilla icing. The chunks to me formed a slight glaze on the inside. This is nothing like the chunks you would get from Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough or Cookies and cream. The inner glaze resembles a light caramel glaze which actually works with the bar base and icing. All in all Cinnamon Roll was not even a top 10 flavor for me in the past., but with the upgrades it does crack my top 5. Great job Quest on improving upon the past.



Invalid Link Removed



Texture



Out of the wrapper you can notice the bar has the usual quest bar texture with the added flakiness from the chunks included on the inside and outside of the bar. Right out of the wrapper the bar had a soft texture, which was an issue with some of the original formula bars that got hard very quick. Overall I found this easy to eat right out of the wrapper and it did not need to be microwaved or broiled. I could puncture the outer layer with my finger.



Invalid Link Removed



Formula



Invalid Link Removed



6g Fat

23g Carbs

20g Protein

15g Fiber

4g Net Carbs



Quest has went back to the old formula which settles much easier and produces a softer bar. Not only has this pleased a large portion of the quest community, but the general supplement consumer as a whole. It makes them digest easier (for myself) and many others.



Invalid Link Removed



Cost



A Box of 12 Quest Bars retails for about $24-26 making it right around 2$ a bar. If you pop into a local mom and pop you may spend upward to $2.50-$3 a bar. Buying in bulk is usually the way to go for the best bang for your buck. Quest does run sales through multiple vendors over time where you can see bars dip below $20 a box, this is a great time to stock up on a new flavor and some of your other favorites from the brand.

VPX Bang Birthday Cake Bash

Invalid Link Removed

Invalid Link Removed

Taste

Birthday Cake Bash -
Just by reading the name it may raise your eyebrow. When you open a can the first aspect you notice is a huge scent of frosting. I kid you not it is like opening a fresh jar of Pillsbury Funfetti frosting filling the aroma in the air. Upon my very first sip, this tastes exactly as you would expect when you read the name on the can. You pick up vibes of a refreshing yellow cake, and in the aftertaste, your taste buds hit luscious hybrid vanilla and funfetti frosting One of VPXs strong suits is their flavoring really applies to customers of all types, this flavor being more geared towards those that love a unique, sweeter flavor. With every review, I like to go into them with an open mind. Since I am partial to a birthday cake I am going to put this up there with their other sweet flavors such as Frose Rose and Cotton Candy.

Invalid Link Removed

Formula

Invalid Link Removed

~300mg Caffeine
Bang is known as an energy drink or an afternoon pick me up. There is a reason why the formula is not something you would see as a top tier pre-workout. With a long listing blend it is hard to say how much COQ10, EAA”s, and Creatine you are truly getting. For an on the go, and affordable drink the real reason people buy it is for flavor and caffeine.

Cost
The price will vary when there is a new launch of bang energy drinks. Buying single cans in person can range up to $3-4 from a local mom and pop, gym, or convenience store. You can find Bang Energy around $20-24/Case when buying online pending the current deals sometimes even lower. Keep your eyes out for great bang deals, when they are around it is great to stock up since the demand for the drinks is very high.


Top 10 Rankings

1. Cherry Blade Lemonade
2. Sour Heads
3. Frose Rose
4. Cotton Candy
5. Birthday Cake Bash
6. Purple Haze
7. Rainbow Unicorn
8. Bangster Berry
9. Black Cherry Vanilla
10. Purple Guava Pear

I am going to give the MK-677 a run after I am done with my cut.
Let me know what you think after a few months. If I was going to drop off the Natty train this is what I would probably try first. At our age It might be nice!

Hopefully this pre makes up for the hole mega pre black left in my heart. Also after years of reading great reviews decided to finally try SA.
 
Took advantage of the BOGO sale Primeval is having. Excited to try the pre out. I’ve been waiting all day for this so I could go to the gym. Invalid Link Removed
