Default Free shaker cup and protein sample

I just signed up for this...says you'll get a free shaker cup and a sample of Spiru-tein protein powder. You have to fill out a short survey for this:

Spiru-tein - the World's Leading Multi-Vitamin

Yikes! I didn't even notice the part about 12 weeks. Oh well, free is free, and those darned shaker bottles are expensive to buy.

Has anyone tried these drinks...yikes, they get kinda thick, and fluffy, and well, just plain gross, thats my take, anyone else, I bet if you drink it in a hurry it may not be bad, but I couldnt drink it that fast.

But the cup is cool!!!

I got my sample and shaker bottle this week. After reading the nutritional information on the envelope, I decided the quality of protein wasn't worth the calories. I did keep the bottle

Actually, Spiru-tein has became my favorite protein. I buy the Simply Natural Vanilla flavor, which is unsweetened. I mix up 1 scoop, 1 cup of unsweetened soy milk, 1/2 cup of frozen berries, and 1 packet of Splenda. I throw it all in the Magic Bullet, and proceed to eat with a spoon like a dessert. Yummy! Well, as yummy as a protein supplement can be anyway.

My local natural foods store sold a box of 8 samples (7?).. with a free shaker bottle..

I found the protein gross and 'chunky'...and the bottle leaked profusely and I tossed it.
