REDCON1 MRE LITE Whole Food Protein Powder, Fudge Brownie - Lactose Free & Sugar Free Meal Replacement with Animal Protein Blends - Easy to Digest Formula - Only 2g Carb per Serving (30 Servings)

This review has both flavors.. which have largely differed ingredients. 5 stars on the Red velvet, and any with the ORIGINAL recipe that have some milk powder for texture . OATMEAL flavor is bad. They changed ingredients, how is it whole food’s when a large portion is protein milk protein concentrate (that has lactose!) yet advertised as lactose free. Tastes aweful, smells bad. I was hooked on this with the vastly different old recipe. This one smells like whey protein when I open it also. Does not mix.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but this protein blew me away. MRE Lite actually taste amazing- I've tried vanilla and brownie flavor. It mixes super smooth, no clumps, and it doesnt have that chalky texture most protein have. (BTW I have used lactaid, almond milk, regular whole milk and 2%- all mixed great). What makes this product stand out is how clean it is. I love that its made from real whole foods, not just whey. You can feel the difference- It's easy on my stomach- no bloating/heaviness - and its kept me full for hours. I use it after a workout or as a quick meal when I'm on the go. For the quality you’re getting, the price is totally worth it. Each serving is packed with protein, and it lasts a while because you don’t need to double scoop like other brand. Low sugar, high protein, and great flavor… this one checks all the boxes. Definitely my new go-to protein powder. Highly recommend!

Taste really great, I read pages on the reviews and decided to give it a shot. I’m on keto and I’ve limited my carbs to 40 a day and my calories to 1600 a day. This is low carb 4 grams, and low calorie 130 per scoop. I mixed it with unsweetened almond milk and blended it with ice. It blends very well and now I have a lite milkshake. I highly recommend if you’re serious about weight loss it’s a great resource when you need something to get up and go with.

I've bought Oatmeal Chocolate Chip from Redcon1 for ages and its always been my favorite protein powder (I've tried a LOT). It had a fantastic taste, and doesn't mess with my stomach like whey proteins do. I would give the old recipe a 5/5 any day of the week. Unfortunately, they switched manufacturers and as a part of this process they changed the ingredients. THE NEW STUFF IS VILE. I thought I might have got a bad batch so I re-ordered and its the exact same thing. The texture is different, the color is darker, the cookies inside of it are different, there are white bits that float in it now and it tastes like milk that's soured. Redcon1 has made a statement saying “We recently identified a flavor deviation that affected product consistency for some of our MRE Lite flavors and are already working closely with our manufacturing and retail partners to correct it.”, but until its fixed this stuff is borderline undrinkable. They should not be selling any product from these batches and the right thing to do would be issuing a recall. The 120 Cal serving is the original, 130 is the awful new stuff. I wish I had any of the original powder left so I could show a side by side of how different they look mixed.

As a light meal replacement/supplement MRE Lite is great. Mixes well, tastes fine. 24g of protein is on par with many other protein powders. What this one has going for it is the source of the protein (chicken, beef, salmon, and egg), no whey which could cause upset stomach. Also, it has 0 added sugar. I've tried many protein powders over the past year, this is one that I'll continue to use for taste, consistency, and protein source.

I’ve tried the Fudge Brownie, Vanilla Milkshake, and now the Peanut Butter Cookie. I’ve completely finished the first two cans and am now on my third. The only way I’ve ate the protein so far is by mixing it with plain Greek yogurt for breakfasts or for a “dessert” type yogurt bowl. It mixes really well and turns the yogurt into a slightly thicker texture. I don’t cannot speak to how well it mixes with liquids. I’m thrilled to have found a protein that helps me meet my health goals, satisfies hunger, and is budget friendly.

Very tasty, a little expensive but worth it

Definitely easy on the stomach, but the flavor profile is a hit or miss. I've only had the raspberry swirl and a strawberry cheesecake and the powder consistency between the two is drastically different. The raspberry swirl wasn't too bad but the strawberry cheesecake did not taste like strawberry or a cake. That flavor belongs only in the trash. Raspberry swirl 3.5/5 Strawberry cheesecake 1/5
