Premier Protein Shakes Problem?

I have recently purchased on two separate occasions four boxes of Premier protein shakes and all four are funky thick and look like they are separating when I pour them out of the container.  Definitely not smooth and liquid like they have been for the past eighteen months.  Any one else experience this problem?

Coincidentally, I just opened one this morning like that. I threw it out. It's the  first one like it I've come across, although I'm only on my second box of them. So far the others in the box are fine.

I had some drinks that were of pudding consistency. I contacted the company. They explained that the mixture was a result of how much protein that was included. The product is safe to consume and the mixture is being improved. The company offered a refund when I sent the product number to them. I like the company for their response and action.

I have had this happen on two occasions as well.  Both times, the entire box were like this.  I was reimbursed by Costco, where I purchased them.  Our thinking is that possibly the contents became frozen, at some point during transportation, and then became thick and gross as a result.

Since those two, I haven't had the problem.

That was my guess too!  Bad handling.

I just threw out two cases a couple months back.  I contacted the company and was told as the expiration date was good they were OK.  The same thing has happened with the EAS RTD.  Sorry no amount of shaking made them drinkable.  Did think to see if Sam's would reimburse me.

I returned four boxes to sam's and they let me exchange.  Finally got two boxes that were the right consistency.  All were in date but did look like maybe the we're either frozen or got too hot.  The expiration date on all of tem were Jan 2015.  The ones I exchanged for we're April 2015.  Hope that's the last of the bad ones!

I ran across that before. I called premier and they took all the carton info and sent me a replacement carton.

If you call Premier Protein they will send you new cases. However, they replaced two cases for me and the replacements were thick as well. They stated it was a problem with the formula and "packing in all that protein". They have a new formula now. They sent me a free case to try. It definitely is thin, however the taste is different. Im not going to drink them any more.

I get my cases from various Amazon vendors and I've now had this problem twice.  Amazon refunds me, but I'll no longer be using the Premier Protein shakes and I'll just stick to my protein powders and almond milk.
