N-Large II wild berry tastes like crap!


I just got this stuff, I'm going to keep taking it, but man does it taste like crap. I got wild berry. By itself it tastes like nothing, but has the same aftertaste as peptobismol (correct my spelling cursor ). I mixed it in a blender, with a few strawberries and a banana, and it still tastes funny and has a sick ass aftertaste. Damn I was dissapointed, but it still gives me what I want.... 52 GRAMS OF PROTEIN!!!. I think I'm going to chuck a few egg whites in with this, and my creatine when I have it before my workout. Whats everyone think of that? Or should I only use it as a meal replacement? It says on the instructions to take 1/2-1 serviing in between meals, so its obviously meant as a meal replacement. I'd like everyones opinions. Thanks!

Just make sure you can absorb all of that in one serving.....egg whites might not be a bad idea as it will increase the amount of slow digesting protein..... good luck.

Because its 630 calories of mostly simple carbs. The 50 grams of protein is good, but because of the kinds of carbs it contains, it should only be used as a post-workout shake, if that. Simply put, there are better nutritional choices. If, however, having a low body fat percentage is not important (and I seem to recall that you said something to this effect), then N-Large 2 is just fine.

I am using mine. It'll just take me 3 months to get rid of all of it.
