Supplement Review: new Reign Inferno Jalapeno Strawberry energy drink
I’m sorry for not writing in a while but I’m back! Work is really busy! I started a crazy summer diet! One meal and 3 meal replacement shakes! So far two weeks I’m down 30lbs. Many more to go! I will try to document my journey. As for energy drinks I have cut them out of my diet as I am getting older and they aren’t good for you. However I had to just taste this! This is insane!
Have you ever had something that was supposed to taste like something but it wasn’t even close Like pizza flavored chips, they don’t taste like pizza. What about barbecue flavored chips they don’t taste like barbecue sauce. This drink does not taste like jalapeño flavored chips or jalapeño flavored cheese, yes those are spicy but it just doesn’t taste like a jalapeño.
Well that wasn’t made by Reign! Or I should say Monster! This drink absolutely tastes like you bit into a jalapeño and you’re sucking on it. No I don’t know if that’s fortunately or unfortunately, because this drink has me perplexed. I am just in shock and awe that this drink absolutely taste like a jalapeño.
Here is the shocking part! You get slammed on the tip and the center of your tongue with the sweet strawberry and at the same time the back of your tongue tastes the bitter pepper! I’ve never had that simultaneous effect before! It’s usually one then you get hit with the other!
I’m really not sure if I like drinking a jalapeño pepper! I have never tasted this realism in a drink before, and I am kind of scared of the mad scientist that made this!
I have never been halfway down a can before and I’m not sure how I feel about it! my motto is hot sauce on everything I honestly don’t know if that holds true, do I like hot sauce in my energy drink?
You know what I don’t think I like it. I just recently got reading glasses and I’m thinking to myself am I just too old? Would a younger me like this? This drink had me questioning my very existence! I still don’t know if I like it…
**Update** March 10th 2020
The blue drink pictured above isn’t good at all I think both these new Reign drinks suck! This True Blue is too sweet! There’s also a Red Dragon flavor that I haven’t seen in the wild yet. I’ll keep my eye out for it, but I won’t keep my hopes up for the taste! Stick to the regular Reign drinks they released two new flavors that I saw. Straw sublime and Mang-o-matic.
I had the Mango and it’s absolutely delicious it’s pure witchcraft! It tastes exactly like mango fruit juice!

HOW IT WORKS
Utilizing 1MHz per second, the ultrasonic waves (alone or coupled with our ‘slimming gel’) generate frictional heat which accelerates blood circulation, muscle relaxation and decomposes cellulite to break down excess fatty tissue
- Microscopic bubbles within the fat cells that expand are formed
- Pressure is produced that causes the fat cells to burst
- And release the fatty acids to be metabolized
- NO HEAT is ever released the whole Process is based on Frequency

I am not sure about the validity of this product. My stomach is slimming, but I think it’s through diet and exercise not this product! I think this is doing absolutely nothing! I’ll keep trying it.
Product Review: Chipwich Releases New Flavor! Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip!
To make a long story short, these were not good at all! The cookies were rubbery the peanut butter chips didn’t coat the entire outside like the originals and the chocolate ice cream was plain chocolate so I didn’t really taste the peanut butter at all.
Absolutely a failure! I have one of their packaging boxes it’s short and square and the chipwich are standing on their sides like a bookshelf rather than the long skinny box.
Well, on the bottom of the box it has 2 additional flavors. These and birthday cake! I can’t wait to try birthday cake! I just hope it’s not a letdown!
Ps a message for chipwich: try researching before releasing new flavors.
Here I’ll help you!
I would have all of these before birthday cake. This is what America is buying. Also know your demographics the biggest consumer is women. That’s where the butter pecan comes in. That was my mother’s favorite flavor. Also the age group.
” Americans over age 55 eat more ice cream per capita than any other age group, according to a new study on frozen sweets. The average American eats ice cream at home 41 times per year, but the over-55-year-olds eat it an average of 56 times annually.”
I think that is a bullshit number however. As a child, I had a bowl everyday for dessert before bed. That would make me have at least 300times a year. Have to subtract the at least 56 times a year I was bad and went to bed without dessert 🤣
I did make them a few suggestions like look at the original recipe and look where you went wrong. Why is the original cookies soft and delicious and these are hard and rubbery. Possibly ditch these cookies and use the original cookies and change the ice cream to chocolate with a peanut butter ripple and use the peanut butter chips for your peanut butter choc chip cookies.
Hopefully they tweaked the recipe before they released it. If they did I can’t wait to try it. If not this will be an utter failure.
Supplement Review: Monster Energy takes on Supplement Giant VPX! Reign vs Bang Energy!
1st Showdown!
Carnival Candy vs Cotton Candy & Rainbow Unicorn!
I’ve had the bang and it is so sickening sweet it’s almost undrinkable! I don’t have high expectations for this one! I think the Reign will also suck as Cotton Candy in general is sickening sweet! Bangs Rainbow Unicorn is also sickening sweet and is close to this!
Wow! Reign tastes exactly like cotton candy, I rank it slightly better than bang! But for me it’s still too sweet. But that’s what cotton candy is! So I can’t fault it! It’s crazy to think there’s no sugar! Cotton candy is pure sugar! Winner Reign! But not by much! It’s just a cleaner taste!
2nd Showdown!
Sour Apple vs Sour Heads!
Hands down this one goes to Reign! This stuff is Fucking delicious and is totally sour apple without being overly sweet! It tastes amazingly like a sour green apple! Like a golden delicious!
Keep in mind these are also sugar free!
Sour heads is overly chemically sweet! It’s sour but it’s not a clean crisp taste like Reign! Reign wins this one hands down! In fact I want more Reign!!!
3rd Showdown!
Razzle Berry vs Blue Razz!
I’ll have to find a Bang Blue Razz for this challenge! I think Powerhouse Gym Mahwah might have one! We will find out next Monday 5/6 after Game of Thrones! Powerhouse did have the flavors!! We shall proceed as scheduled!
Ok so I had the Razzle Berry by Reign and I have to say it is terrible! It’s not delicious raspberries! It’s not even blue as none of the Reign drinks have added color! I actually can’t describe what it does taste like! Let’s just say chemicals lol! This is going in the sink! It’s undrinkable!
Wait and see if Bang wins or we have a double loser!
Bang’s Blue Razz wasn’t bad. It also wasn’t good! I don’t taste raspberry at all. There isn’t a Wicked chemical taste like Reign! So it is drinkable!
Draw – They both suck!
4th Showdown!
Lemon HDZ vs Lemon Drop!
Again I’m going to have to find a lemon drop! I’ve never had this one either.
**Update** May 4th 2019
Just tried the Reign Lemon HDZ. The Lemonheads is amazing!! It’s so delicious! It tastes lemony with carbonation. No aftertaste, a pleasant sweet taste, not overly done and not overly sour. I would have rathered a more sour patch kids flavor. First sour then sweet, but it does taste really good.
**Update** May 5th 2019
This is the closest test! They are really close and I would buy either one! But I have to give the win to: Winner: Reign!
It’s just a cleaner, crisper, more bold taste.
4 1/2 Showdown Side Challenge!
Reign LemonHeads vs Bang Sour Heads!
On a side challenge who gives the best head 🤣
**Update** May 4th 2019
So far, Reign Lemonheads is very Good! Bang Sour Heads was way too chemically artificially sweet!
However; Bang does have the Bang girls! I guess it depends on how you interpret this challenge!
Winner: is up to interpretation! I’ll say Bang 😉 and it’s not for the flavor!
The other Reigns: Melon and Peach don’t have a 1:1 comparison.
5th Showdown Side Challenge
Reign Peach Fizz vs Bang Peach Mango!
Bang has a peach mango flavor or a peach tea flavor.
Understand this isn’t a 1:1 challenge!
But what the heck!
**Update** May 5th 2019
Reign Peach Fizz is delicious! It’s definitely Peach Fizzy and it tastes like it really has Peach juice in it! How do you get that from no carbs and chemicals is crazy!!
Reign has 6 flavors, Bang on the other hand has many many flavors as they have been around since 2012.
VPX only had redline energy drink before then, which wasn’t very good. But they totally revamped the RTD gym energy drink (preworkout) business!
Star Blast & Champagne are 2 of my favorite Bang flavors! I hope Reign makes a Champagne flavor!
Although Bang calls it Champagne it doesn’t taste like real
Champagne. I does Taste really good though. It would be nice to actually taste Champagne and not have the alcohol in it lol!
I have found that flavors that aren’t supposed to be flavors are usually the best! Like what does a star blast taste like? What does in gatorades case what does Rain Berry actually taste like? Or Monster’s Ultra colors, what is an ultra black supposed to taste like?

Drink Content Review:
Since the taste tests are out of the way let’s score the products themselves!
Both: BCAAs, 300mg caffeine, CoQ10, both contain B3, B6 & B12 which are both good for energy! Reign does have 2/3rds the amount of both at 100% of your daily serving per can as opposed to 25% by Bang. Reign has 5 times the BCAAs and CoQ10 as Bang. Bang has 2.5mg CoQ10.
Reign: electrolytes which isn’t bad if you are going to be doing sports. Electrolyte loading can help prolong your workout. It doesn’t have to be intra-workout, as most are used that way.
Bang: Major Flaw! Bang has creatine! Creatine can cause bloat! The inventor of creatine supplementation, the former mastermind at EAS now the owner of Vitargo – Anthony Almada told he that creatine causes bloat and they found the cure for the bloat is drinking it hot to warm! Definitely not in a cold energy drink! Bad move VPX! Always know your ingredients! If you are sensitive to bloat avoid Bang!
Bang does have 50% of your daily Vitamin C which isn’t a lot. It would be nice if it had 1000mg so you wouldn’t have to supplement it. I like high dosage vitamin c!
The fine print ingredients does say L-Glutamine but it’s far down the ingredient list so it probably doesn’t have enough for an impact.

DO NOT BUY THESE!!
These are absolute shit!!
1. It says chocolate flavor! But if you read on it says unflavored! Well wtf is it! It’s unflavored these taste like shit! Like an unflavored dog food biscuit! And they are extremely dry! Thank God they offered the trial size! I almost bought the full-size one! Btw the giant bottle pictured above is tiny! It’s this big!
The Puffs aren’t Puffs at all! They are like fish food pellets! And the fish food probably tastes better!
These absolutely lose! However; since they claim to be grass fed protein, they are definitely ahead of the chemical Puffs!!
1. ISO Poofs! That actually taste like apple cinnamon!
2. Promix no taste pellets! I refuse to call them Puffs!
3. Twin Peaks chemical Puffs!
Number 3 is in the garbage and Number 2 is sure to follow!
Supplement Review: Battle of the Protein Poofs! MPA ISO Poofs
MPA Iso Poofs is the perfect snack or cereal for anyone who enjoys satisfying a sweet craving without sabotaging their dieting efforts. In fact, you can conveniently incorporate MPA Iso Poofs into your nutrition plan as it would be a sufficient animal protein or whey protein shake replacement.
I created MPA Iso Poofs to be as low in dietary fat and carbohydrates as possible. I wanted to create something that would be interchangeable with your standard whey protein shakes that people use in diet plans regularly.
Let’s face it, strict dieting to get into amazing shape takes strong discipline, rigid dieting practices, and the mental toughness to endure oftentimes a bland and monotonous nutrition protocol. MPA Iso Poofs allows you to keep to your high protein, low fat, and low carbohydrate program perfectly while enjoying something that satisfies your “sweet tooth” or sugar-filled craving!
MPA Iso Poofs can be enjoyed as a delicious cereal, accompanied with your choice of fat-free milk, or your preferred milk replacement i.e., (Almond, coconut, cashew milk etc…). You could also use pasteurized liquid egg whites as a “milk substitute” as well.
MPA Iso Poofs can also be enjoyed simply as a snack, eaten dry like you would a bowl of popcorn or any “finger food” snack.
Finally you can truly enjoy and consume something sweet, delicious, yet nutritious every day on your strict diet plan without sabotaging your progress. Don’t be fooled by other supposed “diet friendly” food/snack products, such as chips, popcorn, bars, etc… Read their nutrition facts and while one might be “low in carbs” — it will be higher in dietary fat, and contain more oils than you should feel comfortable dieting with.
I am very particular and picky with my own nutritional needs and MPA Iso Poofs get’s the MPA stamp of approval — so you can feel confident enjoying them on your own diet.
Features & details
- Less Than 1g of Sugar Per Serving
- Less Than 1g of Fat Per Serving
- 19g of Protein Per Serving
- High Protein Cereal or Dry Snack
-MPA
The product although in a cardboard box comes in a giant ziplock bag.
ISO poofs!! Now this is the real deal!!! No chemical smell and it tastes like apple cinnamon! It also really has a cereal taste!
The calories are low and the macros are nice!
wow these taste great! They come in apple cinnamon and French toast! I want both! I want to add these as a tool to my summer cut!
Be happy losing weight! If you are miserable you might not succeed!
These make me happy!
hands down these win the battle of the poofs!
So far! We have one more entry!

-twin peaks ingredients
I got these poofs because I am doing a keto diet and I wanted a low carb snack that’s not a: protein shake, nuts, beef jerky, or nut butter
The product definitely intrigued me!
But what I got was disappointing!
When I opened the bottle and took off the safety seal I took a big whiff and all I smelled is chemicals! And not surprisingly, I tasted not much of anything except chemicals and chalk!
Two huge thumbs down! However, they do have a ton of flavors! Maybe, this flavor just sucks! Bad!
I may try a different flavor, but for the price it’s is super unlikely!
