I used one of the ready-to-drink shakes quite a lot when I was on a low carb diet a few years ago, but then I think they changed the formula so that the net carbs were higher and I quit buying them. However, while I used them, they were fine and tasted good.

9:05 again. I got curious about why I quit using them and went looking at the EAS products I used to buy. Now I remember. I used to use the "Carb Sense" ready-to-drink shake (3 net carbs) and my local grocery store quit carrying that line and changed to the "Lite" line (15 net carbs) of ready-to-drinks. So it was my grocery store that changed, not the EAS formula. I would still buy the Carb Sense if I had easy access.

I eat the EAS low carb bars every day with 1/2 a banana. But the ready to drink shakes make me want to hurl. They're slimy and disgusting.

If you're looking for a good meal replacement shake, their Myoplex used to be king, but in recent years the price has went up. Instead, use Optimum Nutrition's meal replacement power (not to be confused with ON's protein powder, which is not as thick). It's just as good as Myoplex, but a lot cheaper.

I go to Costco and get SportsPharma whey Protein shake mix 6lbs yeah thats right 6 lbs that will last you about 6 months. It tastes good and is only $23.95 Its a great deal and it has 27 grams of protein.

Please understand, there is a difference between a protein shake and a meal replacement shake.

By "meal replacement shakes" do you mean diet drinks like Slim-Fast?

I believe the OP is asking about the EAS brand and not the Slim-Fast brand.

but, not having ever heard os EAS, are they essentially the same as Slim-Fast?

No.

whoa! that's almost TMI...

can anyone shed some light on the product being discussed?

The EAS website is at www.eas.com.
Click on "products" in the gray bar near the top of the page.
I believe the OP is asking about the "Daily Nutrition" products.
