did the fat or sugar level go up? protein is more expensive than fat and sugar so they may have reduced the protein to save money and added more fat or sugar or both.

good luck,
Holly

Edited to add,I think it is sweetened with splenda or something but check the fat totals.

Whew!!  Thought I was the only one who noticed!!!!  So far, my favorite, Blackberry hasn't changed, but I am going to keep my eye on it.  I am still planning on buying it for the low sugar/carb count.

Whew! Thank goodness it's not just me! I thought Carbmaster was higher in protein. My last batch all had 8 grams as well. I love spiced pear and vanilla chai too! Dang...that's quite a drop in protein!! I hope someone has an answer.       Connie

My favs - vanilla and cherry are both 8gm now.  So, I'm not buying it.  I found some unflavored Brown Cow greek yogurt at Kroger this weekend 10/$10.  It is 80 cal, 15 gm protein and 6gm carb.  I will add SF pudding, splenda and SF syrups to it.

I believe Carbmaster was such a good seller they found a way to reformulate it to make more profit - unfortuntely by lowing the protein content by 1/3 - they are losing me.  It is all about the $$$ you know.

I still like 0% Fage unflavored greek to mix with my protein powders, but sometimes like flavored yogurt with Fiber One twigs for some fiber - for the old plumbing!!

Yeah - they'll lose me now on the carbmaster too - after I finish this batch.  I don't even have a Kroger in my town - closest one is 90 miles away.  I was picking up MANY when I went for work or sending people after it when they went.

I'll probably start with Greek yogurt too.  The other thing I want to try is adding stuff into cottage cheese for flavoring.  I've put it in protein shakes and pulvarized it.  Let me see if I can get used to the texture with good flavorings.  It's pretty high in protein for only 1/2 cup.  I've learned the lower the fat, the higher the protein too - I think 14 grams in 1/2 cup.

 Yes that is a bummer, but the calorie count went down too... you could just add a bit of protein powder I suppose, to make up for what was lost.  I dunno, I will still eat it though :)
