I got a free box with my protein shipment. Thought I'd try one.

Out of 10
Flavor: 7 (Decent peanut butter taste)
Texture: 2 (Can barely bite through it!)
Protein: 8 (26g mostly whey, minimal hydrolyzed gelatin)
Carbs: 6 (30g; not too high, but includes High Fructose Corn Syrup and Maltitol and Lactitol- which for me means serious gas if I eat the whole thing)
Fat: 5 (11g, including 4 saturated)

Overall, I'd give this puppy a 6 of 10. Not worth the usual price.. and not worth it even for free if you react like I do to sugar alcohols!

Yeah, I ordered this stuff too. Just got mine yesterday. I was suprised to see that the protein powder just came in a big aluminum looking bag wiht no label. The bars are slapped in a white box and wrapped with plain white wrapping. No labels on anything. Kinda makes me a little nervous about the quality and integrity of the ingrediants but I paid for it so I'm gonna eat and drink it all. Hope I'm not sabotaging my weight loss goals.

Pitbull: Don't worry, my man! Proteinfactory is legit. I've used them for a while, and it's quality stuff. The big, unlabeled bags are different, but I guess it keeps the price down for us!
