MuscleMeds Carnivor Shred Fat Burning Hydrolized Beef Protein Isolate, 0 Lactose, 0 Sugar, 0 Fat, Halal Certified, Chocolate, 2.28 Lb, 28 Servings

I've been using Carnivore Protien for decades and Shred for about 6 years. My stomach is sensitive to Whey & as Pro Bodybuilder, I didnt have time for that. I usually purchase it directly from MuscleMeds but took a chance here. Next day delivery is why I took that chance. Needed ASAP as I always wait until I'm out to panic. From the reviews most aren't athletes so complaining about the taste is expected.LOL. Shred Chocolate is my choice & Shred definitely helps with every workout as I lift heavy and every cardio session. It doesn't replace meals for those non athletes. It gives you the needed Push. I just finished a mix and it tastes as fresh as it would if I'd had purchased directly from MuscleMeds. So I will purchase again. Only the Best for the Best!

Great way for me to start my day. Get my caffeine amd protein at once. Can’t beat it!

I didn’t realize this had caffeine in it when I ordered it. I guess I should have read more carefully. The taste of this is not bad at first but the after taste is not good and lingers. I believe the after taste is from the caffeine in it. It is tolerable if you drink it like a shot, but that is my opinion. Other than the taste it does leave me feeling full but not bloated.

This is a perfect pre-workout shake for me. I frequently have those three main ingredients in some form or another, and this makes it easy. Price per ounce is on par with other protein powders, perhaps a bit on the low side compared to some. Digestively, I do better with meat-based protein powders than I do with whey, so that is a good feature for anyone who gets bloated from whey. The amount of caffeine is enough to give me good focus for my workouts, but not make me over the top jittery like a pre-workout specific supplement. Nonetheless, probably best for most people to not use this as an evening protein drink. I actually prefer the flavor to most of the overly sweet protein powders available. It is more of a cocoa flavor than sweet chocolate. There is a slight hint of the sharp caffeine, almost as an aftertaste, but it isn't unacceptable considering how well this blend works for me. Mixability is poor, and also why I rate 4 stars rather than 5. I prefer to spoon mix my protein powder for simplicity and easy clean up. This does not mix instantly with a spoon, but remains dry and clumpy, floating on top of the water. Don't even try it in milk! However, after it rests for a bit, it dissolves quite well in water. To accommodate this, I mix a scoop in water an hour or so before my workout. By the time I'm ready to go, it has dissolved completely into a thin liquid consistency that is very easy to drink and doesn't leave me feeling full. Some protein powders thicken over time. This one does not. For pre-workout, that is a good feature for me. I tend to perform better when my stomach is not full. So, a bit of inconvenience with the mixability work-around, but not a deal breaker for me. Overall, highly recommended for anyone looking for a solid pre-workout protein blend.

Of all the protein powders I've consumed, and considering it's a direct meat-derived product, I think it's very good. However, if you're looking for a mild flavor, you might want to consider other options.

Great product I recommend it

Super

I wanted to try this for a while. Figure cut out some dairy intake and see how this is. The value is good. Under $50 for 5lbs is a good start. The flavor isn't bad. Its kind of spicy and a little like beef broth and chocolate. Its really not bad. What I hate about it is it doesn't not mix well. No matter how it add water and shake this crap always leaves tons of clumps which make it taste bad. Its the worst mixing powder I've ever used. That is the sole reason I wont ever buy again.

Mi sono trovata bene l’unica pecca che causa brufoli infatti quando l’ho smesso sono andati via peccato

For those mixing protein with banana in a blender - the taste is very acceptable, no significant differences between the shred and regular one. It serves purpose.

Good result !!

Ho acquistato questo prodotto per cambiare un po', dato che è al gusto cioccolato. Ma il detto: (squadra che vince non si cambia) più troppo è vero. Ho provato questo prodotto oggi, ho due punti che non mi convincono. 1) su 30g di prodotto ha 9g di carboidrati e 18g di proteine. Il prodotto che acquistavo prima, aveva su 30g di prodotto 2.6g di carboidrati e 25.8g di proteine. 2) il gusto a me sembra amaro e finito di bere mi lascia una sensazione di bruciore alla gola. Spero che sia proprio il prodotto e che non abbia nulla che mi faccia male. Deluso.

Good stuff. I'm not looking for bodybuilding but the amount of caffeine makes for a good coffee replacement.
