Yes sir! I was informed one of the officer that my government is pretty sensitive to "milk powder" product at that relevant time due to certain incidents pertaining fake milk powder issues in my country.

Muscle Milk status is clarified and allowed to be sold at retailers.

Same here where I am from. But it is understandable. Bear in mind that even if a particular product is cleared for sale by large companies, they may still hold them when individuals buy restricted food items.

Well, in nz any way

same in aus man.

Issue with ours is the egg content of the powder (has to be <10%). So now big suppliers like bb.com and iherb have issued ingredients lists to aus customs in regards to certain protein powders, so theres a bunch we can actually import in without any concern.

Where as some others are still banned for import but can be bought locally.

Alas soon all aussies will be forced to pay a stupid tax for all items bought over seas as a way for the government to try and rort people trying to save and not buying domestically.

Tried all three flavors of Quest Hero this weekend.

I'd rank them as follows Vanilla Caramel > (very close) Blueberry Cobbler > Chocolate Pecan Crunch

A few comments

1. All three are miles better than anything I've ever had from Quest previously, they should replace all of their current bars with these.
2. Even though I ranked them as I did, they are pretty much all equal. I'm just not as much of a fan of chocolate in general but could see anyone that is putting it first, it still a very good tasting bar.
3. Blueberry could easily have been number one but I thought the "layer" of blueberry jelly it has on the top has faint hints of goofiness, like that heavy preserved fruit protein taste, not bad, but just enough that I thought the Vanilla Caramel took the list.
4. These bars may look small in the hand, but they are very dense, I could not believe how full I felt after eating what seems like a relatively small bar when first opening.
5.would recommend all flavors to anyone, very much enjoyed these.

My thoughts exactly on ranking orders as well.
Their chocolate is just bland... the vanilla ones had a nice sweetness and hint of cereal milk in the coating
 
OL Re1gn Review from Priceplow

[video=youtube;4hjzkmvZGtg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hjzkmvZGtg[/video]

Great Streaming and long lasting energy
Does not give a massive slap in the face type of energy
Big appetite suppression
OK on the flavor
Staimina/Endurance were good

2 scooper product, so 15 servings per tub. What's pricepoint?
Click to expand...
It's a full 30srv. Compare it to products like Xtend(7g bcaa x 30 srv) or MAN isoamino (5g bcaa x 30srv)...

SwoleMate has 7g BCAA per serving(14g/2srv...same as Xtend)PLUS 1.6g BA, 1.25g Betaine, 1g L-Citrulline, electrolytes, and additional vitamin D3, Zinc, and methylcobalamin.

MAP pricing should be $23.99, same as Xtend, with WAY more being provided for the same price.

The value here cant be touched.

Don't even get me started on the flavoring...hnnnngggg
 
I wasn't thrilled about losing Compete until I saw ingredients...very excited to try it

I still miss Compete and SwoleMate doesn't change that

i think trying to equate compete to swolemate is near impossible.

Compete is a fun formula, but SwoleMate has it beat hands down. Lets compare.

2.5g of Whey Hydro vs 7g BCAA
2g Carnitines vs 1.6g Beta Alanaine, 1.25g Betaine
500mg Citrulline Malate vs 1g L-Citrulline (equivalent to 1.76g Cit Malate)
250mcg B12 vs 600mcg B12
no Vitamin D3 vs 1000IU Vitamin D2
no Zinc vs 25mg Zinc


its not even CLOSE.
 
I have seen/read that EAAs are more valuable intra workout. So wouldn't the protein source be better instead of BCAAs alone?

EAAs are absolutely a great addition to be taken when using BCAAs, but the reality is you're getting more than enough from your whole food protein and whey protein each and every day.

SwoleMate not only matches or exceeds the competition by providing 7g of 2:1:1 micronized BCAA's, but it also provides great doses of proven ergogens like BA and Betaine for endurance/strength, and even helps positively influence testosterone/estrogen with vitamind D3/zinc
 
I'll definitely be keen to try the flavors just since iForce has always done such a solid job there.

Unless I was directly lied to, which I find doubtful, retailers should offer if at $23.99.

From there I assume it will be included with specials at certain times for things like BOGO 50 off as well as other typical promos you see from HTP.

On its own MAP price, it's a great value. Anything beyond that is just amazing

Am I the only one who sees this simply as bcaas with some other underdosed ingredients... that will jack up the price...

From a marketing perspective its genius. Look at how much a product like Xtend sells, and MAN Sells a ton of Iso-Amino. Iforce wants to make a supplement to compete with those top selling product's. Don't blame them, very smart move, not to mention what you get per serving is very good.
Unlike most of us on here who break down formula's and know proper ingredient dose's. 90% of the people in the gym do not have a clue, and as long as it tastes good, they will buy it.

Provide a very good cost/serving Amino product with extra goodies to be competitive... Very wise move from Iforce IMO

Never tried equating or comparing SwoleMate to Compete. Simply stated that I miss Compete since I was a long time user and found the product to be incredible. I do think the flavors of SwoleMate will be incredible though and I may give them a try.
