Amazingly they ranked this as lower in product safety then the vega bars which failed the heavy metal screening.

I used to love MP’s protein but now there’s so many options out there its not worth it even at Costco prices… aside from that I like their pre-workout Wreckage a lot and HATE their chocolate Naturals organic protein, that just tastes awful
