...no big, eggs-aggerated introduction needed here, folks!! Yep, that moment you've all been waiting for? The arrival of Swolesome Foods' Easter range!!What...Easter goodies launching NOW?! Less than a week out from the big day?!! Haha...yep, you have us there but, thing is, this proper launch should actually have come well over a week ago but, as we could have eggs-pected (OK...last crap egg pun! Promise!!) the first batch, bumper though it was, disappeared on us before we knew what was happeni

Spring has definitely (if not MASSIVELY convincingly) sprung and, slowly but surely, we're turning to thoughts of Summer!Summer will obviously mean different things to different people but, in a Family Fortunes style survey conducted along the lines of 'what does the British Summer make you think of?', I imagine a good handful of things are pretty common and universal...aside from 'rain' (hey...I DID say *British* Summer, after-all!) i'd imagine 'picnics' and 'fresh fruit' are up there! And pale

You know, it's actually hard to think of a flavour Quest HAVEN'T done at this point.From longstanding bestsellers like Choc Chip Cookie Dough through equally safe, nutty staples like Chocolate Peanut Butter, desserty delights like S'mores, Pumpkin Pie and Rocky Road and even more niche, fruity offerings like Blueberry Muffin and Lemon Cream Pie (RIP)...yep, from Banana Nut Muffin to Birthday Cake we thought we'd seen pretty much every sweet-treat one could imagine made guilt-free by California's

'Mocha Monday' over here in the Mix, folks!! How so? Well, not only has it been a coffee-fuelled one, pretty standard for the forever-frenzied start to the Pick&Mix week, but there's been an inordinate amount of chocolate involved too, thanks to the insane number of Swolesome Easter goodies you guys have 'picked' over the weekend!Oh, and not to mention the NEW Nuts 'n More Mocha Cappuccino we finally got our hands on!! That's right, Nuts 'n More's latest protein-infused, fun, flavoured peanu

Who's looking forward to the weekend?! Better yet...who's looking forward to SUMMER?! Well, end of the week and getting on into April, BOTH are tantalisingly close and, speaking of tantalising...take a look this gorgeous new (non-alcoholic but nicely caffeinated!) 'tipple' from NOCCO!! Yep, getting just a little bit of a headstart on meteorological summer, NOCCO's newest BCAA and vitamin-enrich energy drink, Miami, has arrived in the Mix! ⁣ This sweet & sour, strawberry-flavoured sensa

With Easter only 2 weeks away, it's definitely about time we gave a little shout-out to our buddies over at Cocoa+ who, once again, have all your low sugar/high protein/fully anabolic chocolate needs covered!! This year? Not only have their big, ever-popular chocolate eggs been made fully 'good + more good' with premium, super-sexy - and infinitely giftable!! - new Harlequin-style packaging but we have, all-new for 2019, packs of gorgeous, gold-foiled Cocoa+ Mini Eggs!!!I'm sure I don't nee

It's been a long-time coming (2+ years!) but...MTS Nutrition Machine Whey has muscled its way, in all its dessert-y glory, back into the Mix! BOOM!!Why's it called 'Machine Whey'? Easy! It's a whey protein worthy of MTS head honcho Marc 'The Machine' Lobliner himself, and anyone who knows who Marc Lobliner is knows he doesn't mess about...not with his advice, his business, his training programmes and, of course, not with his supplements!This has lead Marc to create an awesome range of supps, wor

Well, it seems like the Sun is FINALLY showing its face in the UK again!! Sure, it might trigger the odd bout of early hayfever but, whether just a Vitamin D top-up or otherwise, very worth it and very welcome. Sun = SO GOOD! Especially as the Sun reminds us Summer is coming!...you know what ELSE is So(l) Good?! Sunwarrior's plant-based protein bars (see what I did there?!)I'm a little ashamed to admit that Sunwarrior's 'Sōl Good' vegan bars haven't been given too much love in the Mix
