BARE PERFORMANCE NUTRITION, BPN Strong Food Complete Nutrition Meal Replacement, Cinnamon Roll

I've never left an Amazon review, but feel like this product warrants one. For some context, I've been tinkering with meal-replacement solutions for close to 5 years now. I've tried huel for a while, but the powder did not sit well with my gut (or anyone's really - I recommend you checkout Huel's forum for a sort-of gastric Stockholm Syndrome expose), and I would prefer to have a powder with whey as it is the most easily absorbed protein for me. I'm also gluten-free, and get most of my carbs from sweet potatoes, so would prefer a drink that has a sweet potato based carb source. Ample "seemed" to solve this problem, but it was needlessly overpriced (this product is $4.5 for 490 calories, ample is $6.5 for 400 calories - that's a world of difference). I also hate how they advertised a high-carb shake for over a year while only having a keto product in-stock - that screams BS marketing to me, and don't really want to give my money to them for that reason. This product gives me everything I need - for a reasonable price-point. Also important - no sucralose, seriously if you had GI issues with other products it could be because you were dumping your system with sucralose, which is shown to be harmful to gut flora. Overall, this product seems different. Huel was started by a bunch of marketers (think about that for a second), but this one cuts past the BS and just gives me what I need - whey , sweet potatoes, GF oats, and omega fats. Thank you ! Fyi 1- it's silly for companies to put probiotics /vitamins in the powder itself. You can get really cheap stacks from nature's bounty etc. On YouTube. More importantly, these things are highly individualized. Maybe you need more magnesium, and I need more calcium ... Maybe you want probiotics and I don't ... Simply take the desired capsule with your shake, the price increase is really negligible in the longrun. fyi 2- you don't have to have the recommended 490 servings. I do after a workout, but 400cal is plenty satiating, and has more than enough protein etc. This lowers the price-point somewhat for those who don't consume as much (keep in mind that huel/Soylent etc. Advertise servings of 400 not 490, and that further reduces the relative price point of this product).

In love with it so far. Really hope they keep these in stock. Super appreciate banned substance testing. Very good mixability and dissolves nicely. Taste pretty good. I'm more of a chocolate guy myself though but they're unfortunately out of stock. Very good nutrition and helps me feel great overall. Also hope someday they could be EBT SNAP eligible. Either way thanks for the great product. This will help me become the greatest boxer this world has ever seen. Really wanna try the chocolate flavor but can get by with the cinnamon roll flavor just fine. Much love. And thanks again you awesome peeps

I've started a new diet 'Anabolic Fasting' and fitness program at CoryGFitness. As someone who has a busy day job, this lunch meal replacement fits perfectly into the macros, low sugar, and great sources of protein, carbs and fat. I'm also really glad I get to support a growing supplement company like BPN. I see a lot of people complaining about the price, but at 4.25 a meal, it's a steal for me --- worth the cost and more than having to shop and meal prep my lunches. They're also very transparent about what is in Strong Food and NO FILLERS! High quality powder. I bought two tubs of chocolate and the flavor and texture of the drink is fantastic. I'm ALWAYS skeptical of protein powder taste, but I was really blown away by the flavor. I actually enjoy drinking it Totally recommend if it fits into your budget and dietary needs. I hope they can expand flavors and will definitely be purchasing again.

Doesn’t really taste all that good.

I am always hesitant to change any of my meal replacements or protein supplements as I am sensitive to sweeteners and have a “delicate” gi system at times. I actually kept this for a week and didn’t open, I was going to return, but noticed it was not eligible. I ended up trying it, at 1/2 strength, using milk/water/banana/spinach and frozen blueberries. I mix in a blender for 60 seconds and it is very smooth. Taste is great and I have not had any issues. I hope they will make a vanilla option, but the chocolate is great. I just ordered the cinnamon for my next delivery to try it. Ingredients are clean and well balanced. Price is very reasonable. Overall I am very happy with this product and will make it my primary meal replacement. If you are thinking of making a change give it a try. Hopefully you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Best tasting meal replacement on the market. Every time I use this meal replacement it taste great. I have found that the mixability can be inconsistent without a shaker ball. Also it b tastes great when mixed with milk.

PLEASE bring back chocolate to get more stars!!! (ITS BEEN GONE FOR OVER A MONTH)

Busy job and drinking versus eating is often times the quicker way to avoid getting dizzy and sugar dropping. This formula made me feel satisfied and my body and mind felt like it's vitamins and mineral needs were met from this drink. I didn't feel like something was lacking afterwards. If that makes any sense. The container is enormous, but the scoop amount is also huge. Depending on whether or not I was drinking for a meal replacement or a low caloric between meal intake, I was always amazed by the taste, texture and satisfaction of the drink. Will be buying again. May even try the vanilla. I e also tried the electrolytes from this brand and they are incredible as well. Try this. You'll see.
