    Has anyone tried these, I've tried making couscous/barley on a few separate occasion but just couldn't get it done correctly. I also suck at making rice so I thought maybe this would be easier.

    I use and love every single one of them. Highly recommend. Posted about these before.

    Ditto. Our garage shelves are quite stocked with them ... Currently on Keto cut cycle, so they'll keep.

    Just tried the bang energy drinks. Good but a little bit too much caffeine for me

    That’s why I always get the caffeine free ones! Although I really wish I knew what the purple haze and the blue ones tasted like, I wish they sold all their flavors caffeine free! So far the caffeine free cotton candy is my absolute favorite, it’s the best tasting and least artificial one in my opinion

    Is it me or its NOT ENOUGH CAFFEINE ! I also drink crazy amounts of coffee before bed also must have a cup coffee to fall asleep

    It’s like 300mg of caffeine, which is amplified by whatever else they put in it! It’s way more potent than even a Monster! I didn’t really get hyper from it, but it made me really nauseous and lightheaded when I drank the caffeinated version.... I think my body was doing everything to reject the caffeine without giving it a true chance haha, but it was my first energy drink and usually I drink regular coffee once every other day to keep my tolerance low so I don’t rely on it! I’m pretty caffeine sensitive... one of the reasons I get so annoyed when bottled coffees don’t give my any type of buzz, because that means they’re little weenie coffees for children! >.<

    I can handle soda, but an energy drink heck no!

    I remember once having a Monster Coffee in the morning & then still felt really drained (it was a day I hadn't slept the previous night) & got a 5 Hr. Energy drink! I thought I was dying of a heart attack. I also couldn't sleep that night so I was up basically two nights in a row.

    I need to try this Bang drink you all are talking about. I'm not sensitive to caffeine (drink multiple cups of coffee a day or an energy drink and don't notice a huge pick-me-up, it's just routine in my morning). Where do you find them?

    I went to the vitamin shoppe AGAIN and still no new quest goodies. Does anyone know if the new cold brew protein powder will be sold in individual packets like their other flavors, or only by the tub?
    I did find the vitamin shoppe’s one brand (BodyTech) of mocha protein powder, but I don’t recommend it. A part of me likes it, but then there’s a really strong artificial aftertaste that puts me off. It also has acesulfame potassium, which I don’t entirely trust. No mention of coffee in the ingredients, unless it’s the “natural and artificial flavors,” whatever that means. No indication of caffeine content and I don’t feel any different, being the caffeine weenie that I am. So two thumbs down!

    And I found mine at our local grocery store (HEB). I think they have pretty wide availability.

    Welp guess I'm driving back to Redner's, I emailed DIppin' Dots to see where else/what other flavors they sell of those pop rock looking things... and this is what they said. Dang it.

    If you have Meijer around, try there. They have few flavors in mine. I tried two flavors and I hated them. They literally tasted like soap to me!

    Got my nush cakes. The peanut butter one did not taste like peanut butter at all in my opinion. I noticed it had rosemary in the ingredient list you can taste that more than peanut butter
