Odwalla Super Protein: Original Review

WiseGuise — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 01:01:00 +0000

I took a bit of a gamble here, this is another one I fished out of the back of my fridge. I exclaimed something foul when I saw the expiration date, but I decided to go ahead and drink it anyway. Wish me some gastronomical luck.

After the first nervous sip, I relaxed and let myself enjoy this protein drink. It was a bit gritty, like pretty much all protein focused drinks, but not as much as most others. The fruit juice mixture (90%) was sweet, but not overpowering. The coconut really came through, there are actual coconut shreds in the bottle.

For a protein drink, this wasn’t all that bad. As a fruit drink, eh. It has 18 grams of protein per 15 oz bottle, and 58 grams of sugar; that’s a little high, but still could be worse. Odwalla has been around since 1980, but was ‘acquired’ by Coca-Cola in 2001. They pride themselves on being eath-freindly, and using no GMO (basically bio-engineered foods).

Ingredients: Apple Juice, Orange Juice, Banana Puree, Isolated Soy Protein, Pure Filtered Water, Citric Acid, Coconut, Tricalcium Phosphate, Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Magnesium Phosphate, Zinc Gluconate, Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine Hydrochloride)

Score: 4 out of 5. Better than most, and actually pretty healthy.
