The Dark stuff

[Bucky86]

So I went into my local GNC today and the salesman recomended that I try out MHP® Dark Matter. He went on about its perks, but I wasnt sure if it was worth the money. Anyone have any reviews and or opinions they could give on this stuff?

Thanks!

It's new and probably earns a commission, hence the salesman's push. Looks like just another marketing ploy. You'd be better served eating some fruits and maybe using a clean protein powder--one-sixth of the calories are sugar, which makes me wonder what that other 48g of carbs (per serving) is.

EDIT: Looks like a boatload of corn and corn sugars, based on the ingredient list (notice all the flashy words that mean nothing):

Oh commission driven salesmen...is there anything you won't push? Thank you for your input sir, you saved me 50 bucks.

Oh, that's my new favorite product. Wow -- talk about double-speak all over that label.

$50 for 20 servings of creatine and carbs. GNC sucks.
