Banana Creme Protein Shake, 12 FZ
What You Should Know
You'd find this in the refrigerated grab-and-go beverage case or health-beverage aisle, sold as a plant-based protein pick-me-up for mornings or after workouts. It feels like a smoothie-meets-dessert — health-forward but indulgent and convenient. The long list of isolated protein blends, emulsifiers, gums, natural flavors and sweeteners and the ultra-smooth texture reflect industrial formulation and significant ultraprocessing.
