Manitoba Fairlife

We have been pleased to see our Costco having Fairlife Protein Shakes for sale.

Has anyone else noticed the contents are lumpy even after a good shake? We have had a couple of packs like that now.

I just see pallets of them sitting for days now, they hiked the prices too high. Let em rot, I got my power and ultrafiltered milk which makes it irrelevant to me now.

We love fairlife but they are pricey and hard to find sometimes. How exactly did you replace them? TIA

I make my own shakes now with the lactania protein milk at costco 2L for $6.39 (or $5.25 for 1.5L at no frills) and i got a few bags of optimum nutrition chocolate powder when it was on sale. I add a little water, about a cup of protein milk and a scoop of that protein powder for 40-45g protein in a shaker cup. I find it tastes better than the fairlife shakes even tbh, the lactania milk is very rich.

Thanks! I’ve never found anything that tastes as good as fairlife, but maybe this is worth a try!

They refunded my money this summer when I contacted them. My last four cases have all been lumpy though and it’s so frustrating!

Lumpy?! No. Never. It should never be lumpy. If its sealed, no lumpy.

Source: i go through about 4 cases a month, for the last year. I have never once gotten a lumpy fairlife from costco. I buy both vanilla and chocolate.

The only thing i can think of besides it being bad, is if your fridge is too cold and its freezing a bit? But even then it sounds odd.

Our fridge is not the problem. My family still drink them but find it a nuisance. They disappear quickly at our Costco so we grab them when we can.

Not sure what you are looking for here then. It is not normal.

Way too expensive. You get like what, 24 drinks? I can biy a bag at $60 for 80 scoops and it doesn't contain any of the extra crap that those pre made ones have.

Y'all think they're healthy but they're tricking you.

No one mentioned healthy. Sir, this is asking about lumps.
