Numerous reviewers online wrote of adding to the taste of these shakes with a variety of extras – yogurt, peppermint extract, peanut butter, bananas, even cream – not exactly the way to keep the drinks low carb or low calories. A number of online comments mentioned that the regular taste is “chalky” and that there is a “sludge” left in the bottom of the glass, but overall consumers seemed positive about 8 times out of ten. The Carb Solution Protein Shakes come in 14 oz container for $10.99. A serving is three ounces, which means you get just under 5 shakes per container, but it’s still pretty inexpensive.
