Special K20 Protein Water MixSo, occasionally I like to use this space to promote products that I think are exceptional. The last one that I profiled like this was the book “Eat This, Not That!” by Steve Zinczenko, which I started using to help me lose weight while stuck eating fast food on the road. Around this same time, I also started experimenting with Special K2O Protein Water.

From what I know about protein, having more of it couldn’t possibly be a bad thing. Additionally, there are 5 grams of fiber per serving… and as we, as a nation, are starting to get on a fiber kick (as evidenced by an influx of new products and television ads) I figured that couldn’t be a bad thing.

I really enjoy these little powder packets. The combination of the fiber and the protein help satisfy hunger when you’re in the mood to snack. Additionally, I think it tastes pretty good too. Unfortunately, some of the flavors smell weird. The Iced Tea flavor, in particular, smells pretty horrible… and that imposes upon how enjoyable the drink is (despite the fact that, if you ignore the smell, tastes like Iced Tea).

I really like the Pink Lemonade or the Strawberry Kiwi flavors, especially in this hot, disgusting weather. Pick some up at a grocery store near you… you’ll be glad you did!
