RAW MEAL: Chocolate Cacao Now Has Less Sugar and More Protein!



It's Monday, so probably many of you are feeling a bit sluggish. Or maybe it's just me today. Nevertheless, the best way to give yourself a boost is by drinking a tasty protein shake.

You might recall me reviewing the Raw Meal: Chocolate Cacao (read my review here) earlier this year. Well, Garden of Life listened to their customers and tweaked the powder mix. It now has less protein (only 1g now), 15% more protein (20g per scoop) and is loaded with 45 Superfoods!

Garden of Life nicely sent me a sample 17.4oz container to test out and review a few months back, and as you can see, I'm finally getting around to reviewing it. Each container has about 14 scoops (servings), if you are wanting just a shake. If you want to use it as a meal replacement (2 scoops), then it would last only 7 days.

Just like other Garden of Life products, this is NON-GMO Verified (independent third party verification). There is no gluten and it's soy & dairy free. Also, there are no added sugars, artificial flavors or sweeteners.

I was slightly worried that the changes to the ingredients would impact the taste, but it didn't at all. Actually, I think it has a better, sweeter taste than what the original version had. I've haven't tried it as a meal replacement yet, but one shake alone satisfied my hunger cravings and quickly took away the sluggish feeling I had. Overall, I do like the RAW MEAL: Chocolate Cacao. It's a great shake to drink when you are on the go. And it's also makes a great pre or post-workout protein drink.
