Sir Bananas Chocolate Banana Milk Review

First, I must give credit to my Uncle Ed for inspiring this post. I've said before that content on this blog can shy away to any topic and he mentioned that I should do drink reviews.

Today in Michigan, I got the chance to try Sir Bananas. It is a reduced fat banana milk and is said to be made with real bananas and real cocoa.




The side of the carton says it has 8 essential nutrients:





It also features the silly Sir Bananas:




I poured some in a cup and was greeted with this:




My first thoughts were that this milk isn't so great. I'm not a fan of low fat or reduced fat milk, but this tasted strongly of bananas and lacked on the chocolate side of things.  I wish that it would have a strong chocolate taste up front and leave a hint of banana on the back end of things. I could see this being used as a base to make smoothies though, as I feel like it would have more potential blended with other items. I think it would be useful for that, but I could not see myself buying this again.

I didn't even pour half of a cup, but I didn't have the desire to finish it.

Sir Bananas needs to stop being so silly and perfect his product first.

For these reasons, I'm giving Sir Bananas chocolate banana milk a 3 1/2 out of 10.

Maybe you forget to sign in under the enrollment account and now you don't have the option to enroll, or maybe something else happened. The trick is deleting the local data from the particular device that is having trouble.

The steps are:


Hopefully, the above steps will help and get the device enrolled back to your org. I know they worked for me.
