Review on 🍫 Cellucor COR-Performance Protein Powder 5lb: Molten Chocolate Bliss - Boost Your Performance with 83.04 Ounces of Pure Delight! by Jennifer Jackson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I wanted to puke! Dropped it off at the UPS store for a return 30 minutes after opening and sipping!

The buyer must (really really) be a product. I'll ignore the industrial grey, almost Mobil 1, as the packaging reminds me of imitation Lego containers. Taste. It's like karaba chocolate, very repulsive and very strong. Even after I took it out of the house, drove to the UPS store, got home, washed the counter, blender and mug. opened the windows then went and changed wheels, the smell of the stuff still lingered and almost made me wonder if I could ever drink chocolate flavored protein again. The aroma of this garbage rivals gear oil in strength. To each their own, people have different likes and dislikes, but I won't embellish it. Which brings me to my next question, it has 2 grams of sugar, BLAAAAAAA. Now it's a 5.19 pound container for $50. I used to have Chocolate Hydrowhey from Optimum Nutrition, a 3.5 lb container. Money is tight right now due to the pandemic, so I thought, hey, an extra 1.69 pounds of protein, I'll give it a shot. I take it out, open it, take a scoop out of the ground with a wooden spoon and read the instructions. 24 grams of COR protein versus 30 grams for ON. Okay, a little less, but then I can see what 2 bullets are! This means I paid the same amount of money for less protein per serving and for the full weight equivalent of 1 pound less product. Let's recap. ON Hydrowhey, $49, 1 scoop. 3.5 pounds. This thing. $50, 2 scoops 5.19 pounds. Simple math. This material is of lower quality and much more expensive per gram of protein! I mean now I buy Hydrowhey, get more protein per serving, more BCAAs and other amino acids, less sugar, oh, and did I mention ON Hydrowhey WAIT FOR IT. 100% ISOLATED! Against this material, which is a concentrate of dirt! Yes, this is a serious matter. It's been hours since I first swallowed and I don't feel right, the taste in my mouth is still weird from the synthetic sweeteners they put in this stuff. I think I'll be fine after a shower or something, maybe some Listerine.
