Cacao Bean Protein Beverage, 12 FZ
What You Should Know
You'll spot this chilled in the refrigerated section with plant-based milks and ready-to-drink protein beverages — an easy grab for breakfast, a post-gym pick-me-up, or an on-the-go chocolatey snack. It projects a healthy, slightly indulgent vibe, but the long ingredient list and functional additives (gums, lecithin, proprietary protein blends, natural flavors) indicate texture and shelf-life engineering typical of industrially formulated products.
