Just finished my tub of BPI Super Pro Cookies and Cream. Just average. It wasn't very strong in oats or Greek yogurt. Taste wise was best as a shake but didnt mix all that well. Not worth 190 cals a scoop. Won't buy again. 6/10

Lots of Pumpkin Pie Trutein has already shipped and more tubs are shipping today! The flavor is temporarily sold out while the company catches up with all of the orders, and then it will be for sale again on the site.

I even did a review on the pumpkin pie and thought it was great
I just found it odd you never replied when I quoted you 5 times in a thread about trutein coming back to bb.com and saying every week through December it would be back that week or that Friday and then it's now almost the 10th of JaN and its still not back
So for your consumers that's 5 weeks still not in the store when you said it would be bck and there has been no word from Greg until the other day. That is poor customer satisfaction regarding the situation and you knowing the stance being the head rep
I like trutein and I do have some coming in (banana cream and Cinnabun)
I just find it funny you want to stab at me when it's pretty obvious you get trolled to no end in the supplement section for some of your claims to company and seeing how people respond and why people
Give you so much crap. It's one thing if one person sees it but TD nearly the entire forum and supp section
But honestly when can we see trutein back? I know Greg said "sometime soon" but that was said early December and its almost mid jaN now
If you guys got back on here your sales would skyrocket because the demand is high
Right now being out is killing you guys. But I'm sure the PP sale helped a ton

I had already posted my feelings about the matter here, and Greg has kept everyone up to speed with his post here. If you look through the comments on the ******** page regarding the stock at bb.com, you will see that every fan is psyched about what's to come. In the forum, there will unavoidably be affiliates and allies of competing companies who are exasperated by Trutein's prosperity. I'm more acquainted with you and I like you more than them, which is why I hold you to a higher standard of dignity and character. The company's advancement over the past year has been remarkable. Even in the chats with bb.com's customer service that have been posted in the forum, Motivation Mark of bb.com said, "I know that the Trutein is super popular and is a great protein," and Brawny Brock said, "I love trutein." The company is rapidly growing and expanding production to bring customers a larger supply, which is nothing but good news for fans. There is no limit to what TNS will accomplish once they are fully operational, and if you look on the company website, factory renovations will be complete Jan. 14. New products, new Trutein flavors, expo presence, shirts, maybe a TNS blimp. Those are just a few of the key elements on the agenda for 2013.

If BTL has been misleading in regards to Trutein's reappearance in bb.com it is entirely my fault. Based upon information I received, I have communicated to BTL that I indeed thought it would be "next week" several times in a row.
Trust me, there is no one who wants Trutein to be back in bb.com's online store more so than me, and we are working extremely hard on getting bb.com all the Trutein they have ordered from us. I don't have an exact date, but Trutein WILL return to the online store this month - I promise you thatBody Nutrition - The Best Protein in the World!

Well then that makes sense then, I had no idea what was going on because i never saw you post regarding the situation and i kept hearing this week, this friday etc etc etc.
This turned down a lot of your consumers and turned away a lot of people from your brand with the mis-information, the handling of the O-Ring Situation and now the massive backorder where bb.com would provide you very good sales and marketing for your product with reviews/samples etc that you have done.
Taking that away for one of the busiest times of the year to buy supplements (around the holidays with good deals) really limited your sales and potential for future sales with taking away consumers because of the false information and bad customer service in the process.
Glad to see you are making your way back with bigger and better things. Thanks for clearing that up. I was just very confused reading it will be back this week
a week passes, and saying the same thing, then a month passed and nothing to show for it...
Kind of like BTL was talking himself in a circle which is why he gets made fun of so much for some of the claims he does make with nobody to back it but himself.

Even if TNS had a dozen reps delivering the same information, do you think hecklers would cease to exist in the forum? For many people, internet forums are nothing more than a place to tease and torment others (who are complete strangers). I do not take offense to it, and if the forum were just serious business, it wouldn't be as fun anyways. Moreover, consumers weren't turned away. They were wise enough to simply get Trutein from somewhere else. Also, stating that someone has been displeased with customer service is a flat-out lie. TNS is often praised as having excellent customer service, and the owner personally handles nearly all customer service matters. I regularly speak to people about the service they have received, and they are fully satisfied. No one who has dealt with customer service would call it "bad customer service." Finally, there are not many owners of supplement companies that will come to this forum and answer questions directly, yet you expect it from TNS. Greg visits the forum to maintain friendly relations with customers, which is just another way that TNS goes beyond the the standard.

Again BTL i respect you, but somtimes you stretch the truth just a bit too much and the post's show it and the evidence is in previous threads.
Again i like trutein, and i do use trutein, and i will be placing up some recipes when i get my Cinnabun and Banana Cream in, but there have been some issues. I really think that these last 6 weeks where you continued to say that it would be in stock and it has not been really turned others away because of what was in the store and where your sales were going, with it gone it hurt you guys a little bit and I think until you get back (which is hopefully soon) TNS will be on a little downward slope until then being this is one of your major marketing spots for your product. That is what i am trying to get across. I really hope to see you guys expand in the future with new flavors, because the limited runs are showing good success and outstanding feedback. Pumpkin Pie will blow people away.

^^ A thread where many were turned away
One of the posters:
"I am fan of trutein and the company as I enjoy the product very much. I have found other proteins in the meantime that seem to fill the void just fine. I will probably buy trutein in the future when it's restocked, but this whole fiasco puts a black eye on the company. I hope you realize that when you tell people one thing and something else happens this creates animosity toward the company and yourself. Stop and think about what you actually know and what you believe/hope before you post."
This is bb.com and you are trying to tell people to buy elsewhere, that would be advertising competitors which is a banable offense.(Company Rep Rules)
O-Ring Incident?
People Finding those black O-Rings in their tubs of protein powder and claiming that was ok? That seemed a little off beat.

dymatize choc PB casein. good taste and VERY thick. will buy again.
You are not a fragile ornament ready to collapse into an exhausted mass of goo simply because you squatted more than once in a 7-day week.
It'd be like preparing your entire life to bang 100 chicks in a row, getting tan, hitting the gym, making sure your hair looks right and reading the Kama Sutra, only to realize when you get there that you're gay and cannot get hard in the presence of women.
