Cheesecake Keto Meal Replacement Shake [2lbs] - Low Carb Protein Powder Shake Mix, High Fat with MCTs, Collagen Peptides and Real USA Cream Cheese

I bought this as a way to kick the sweets being on a keto diet and this is a great way and helped me curb my appetite as well. I love that it was a big container so I didn't worry about running out fast and it seemed to mix well. The taste was great for me and seemed to be a great value. Overall I would buy this again for sure!

I ordered the keto shake since am trying to cut down the number of carbs from my regular meals which would make me hungry all the time. Prior to trying this keto shake, I started with drinking a protein shake and very soon realized am not liking it since it makes me go to the bathroom a few times after drinking it. Also, these protein shakes are a bit 'heavy' in my stomach and make me feel full, for some amount of time and then quickly wanes off making me very hungry.This keto shake is 'lighter' and tastes much better, and dissolves quickly in water, almond milk, and regular milk. I tried it with coconut milk as well, it doesn't really taste bad but has a strong oily smell. I believe this product is not made to be consumed with coconut milk because it already has MCT coconut oil powder. I tried it with some buttermilk and it does taste like a good quality greek yogurt. Overall, the cheesecake-flavored shake is a treat and can easily help manage your cravings for sweet food items.Note, the shake will develop a 'oily' smell if prepared and consumed after some time, let's say one hour in my case. So in case you want to prepare a shake and want to carry it with you, make sure to consume it as soon as possible. I reached out to customer care and they offered me a free replacement of a different flavor, which is another nice flavor to try.My recommendation is to try it out with regular milk and then go on to experiment with other types of milk. Again, consume is as soon as you prepare to enjoy the full flavor profile.

I've really enjoyed this shake. It's filling and is super quick and easy to mix in my vortex shaker bottle. It tastes like real cheesecake, not some chemical version of what a scientist thinks it tastes like. I also like that there's no caffeine so if I want "dessert" for dinner it won't keep me up all night. Great value as well. I use it anywhere from 1-5 meals a week and it really helps keep my inflammation down and appetite at bay.

**EDIT 2**The company reached out to me to offer a refund or coffee flavor replacement. The are very quick to response and solve issues. I'd be glad to offer a 4 star review so it doesn't bring them down badly. I'm sure this stuff is great for others. So I wish the company well and thanks for handling things professionally and promptly.*EDIT*I tried today mixing two scoops with cold water. As before I tried with room temperature water. It helped the mix taste better however you have to drink it quickly. Towards the end it started to get that slight flavor of sour milk. And the weird texture on the tongue is still there. I do not use milk for mixing and do not plan to. I need the convience of water and something I don't have to down in 5mins. It still is not the one for me. Maybe it's my tastebuds._______I've not had many times shopping for new meal replacements for the Keto Diet. I've only ever bought one on the past. Which was a pleasant experience.This one I did a lot of research trying to find a new one since I could not figure out the brand of the original one I used.I mixed able a scoop and a half with 16oz. of room temperature water. I noticed it mixed fairly easily, did not see any issues with that, it was similar to a milky/transparent mixture. After about halfway through drinking it I can't say I was pleased.The aftertaste is horrendous. It reminds me of vomit or sour milk. I can taste and smell it. It leaves an odd silky texture on the tongue. I could deal with this if not for the that foul flavor. I was also in the restroom about 30mins after drinking it.I checked the expiration. Which was fine. But my stomach and taste buds says this is not the one. I'm sure this is just based information since not everyone will have the same reaction. And it can be enjoyable for others. It just does not happen to be me.

*** FOLLOW UP - the company was nice enough to refund my money, so kudos to them for being honest and also offering excellent customer service. Just to reiterate, it is my belief that there is a spoiled ingredient(s), and that the original formula should taste good. I hope the company can fix this issue as I believe that they normally make good products with quality ingredients.Also for those who buy this powder, here is what to look for; this is a summary of my experience, which is in line with the other 1 star reviews.- In powder form the cheesecake powder actually smells and tastes normal. When you put a spoonful of powder in your mouth it actually tastes somewhat okay. Not too off putting at this point....- After you mix the powder with liquid is when the "magic happens" and the powder becomes nasty.- Initially it has the taste of spoiled milk or vomit, and then I know this is going to sound weird, but the longer you leave it in the liquid the more the "bad taste" develops. If you leave it in a plastic bottle long enough (even just 20 minutes), the plastic will start to absorb the nasty smell/taste.ORIGINAL REVIEWI bought 3 bottles of this "cheesecake" protein powder when it was on sale a few months ago. Just got around to using it and like many other reviewers came to find out that the taste was horrible, like that of spoiled milk or vomit. No joke!! It has a weird sour aftertaste and tastes nothing at all like cheesecake.Cheesecake flavor is mainly cream cheese and some type of sweetener, which is not too hard to replicate these days, even while keeping keto macros in mind. There is something seriously off putting about this formulation, I'd recommend ANY of the other brands that are popular, they are light years better....
