I've never found a bullet I've like yet so YOU try it first and report back, lol. Seems very expensive to me, it comes out to $3.59 per bullet. The ad says Smoothie Factory now sells them. If I were you I'd try one there first so you don't end up with a case of something that tastes nasty.
I've always been told not to consume more than 20-25 gms at one time cuz we can't asborb more than that. Not sure it that's fact or fiction but you might want to split it into 2 doses just to be sure.

Yep, Ms. Steph speaks the truth!!! If the bullet is more than 25 grams of protein, drink only half, wait a couple hours, then drink the other half. The body only absorbs about 25 grams at a time so if you drink it all at once, you'll just be wasting the rest. I've done a lot of those bullets and I'll tell ya - most of them have a funky aftertaste or taste so horribly sweet they will make you sick. I did them after my first plastic surgery just because I HAD to get in the protein but can't even stand to LOOK at them now! Agree with Steph 100% - don't buy an entire case of anything until you try a few of them. I didn't get sick of mine until about the 10th one or so then just gagged them down. Mine were only 25 grams of protein at a time though so I was able to drink the entire thing.

They work great in a pinch. Easy to carry, toss in a bag or whatever, bu they are pricey. I can only tolerate the green ones and the blue ones. The others just make me gag. :) They are thick and slimey but if you down them like a shot or medicine it works just fine.
