REDCON1 MRE RTD provides a ready-to-drink protein option with 40g protein per bottle. Its whey-free formula combines animal and plant ingredients, so whey-free does not mean dairy-free or vegan.
MRE RTD takes REDCON1’s protein blend into a ready-to-drink bottle. Each 14 fl oz shake supplies 40 g of protein from bovine collagen peptides, pea protein and rice protein. The four listed flavors each contain 230 calories and no total sugars, with a slightly different carbohydrate count for Strawberry Shortcake.
The formula is made without whey protein, but the manufacturer still declares milk and soy allergens. That distinction matters when comparing it with dairy-free or vegan drinks. Keep a bottle available for post-training protein or another time when a prepared shake is more convenient than mixing powder.
