    My wife has ordered twice from them. Between Leanfit and Canadian Protein (at least for creatine) she prefers Canadian Protein.

    Their flavours are good. I don’t consume much but the banana and French vanilla flavour protein are baller. She sometimes makes me surprise smoothies.

    I last counted like 4 bags of protein and creatine in my cupboard all from them so I’d say based on my wife’s spending and obsessive researching on any of her latest obsessions, Canadian Protein is pretty good.

    I live pretty rural and haven’t had any shipping issues.

    Agreed! Skim my post history. I’m in the meme.

    And it’s because I’m so happy I have a plug n play version of Linux that I don’t have to troubleshoot. It’s more stable than W11 on my work computer. I love it so much. I could throw it on my grandmas computer and she would be fine. I’d recommend it over Mint for new Linux users.

    I wouldn’t recommend it for people who love using the command line or run virtual machines.

    My post was removed unfortunately but if you see my other comments in this thread I go over it a bit. The last time I was there it was last year so things could have changed.

    If you’re going to a resort, expect to have few food options. You won’t go hungry but depending on all sorts of factors, you might only get eggs at the breakfast buffet once a week. It’s expected to tip the staff with a few USD. You can go into Havana or Varadero and go sightseeing and explore. Havana is better for this. Varadero is pretty touristy but still very nice. The restaurants in the city have much better food (I even had fried chicken!) but don’t drink anything with ice. The water isn’t filtered and you’ll probably get mild runs for a day. Wasn’t even that bad but was not a super comfortable day haha.

    If you’re looking for a very cheap sunny beach vacation spot and don’t mind the limited food options, it’s great. Expect to only see Russian and Quebec tourists. You may stumble upon the odd Australian or British person but it’s like 60% French Canadians that go there, 30% Russians, and 10% other countries.

    You’ll find no Americans there (since it’s illegal for them).



  • Last time I was there - hot, lacking proteins, rolling blackouts, and the bus follows its own schedule 😆 The convertible taxi drivers are cool and they’ve got these old ass 50s cars with modern stereo systems spliced in. I wish I had brought my bike to ride the coastlines. They’ve got some excellent roads right on the coast.

    I like it there. The people are nice and welcoming and the beaches are phenomenal. The pandemic absolutely rocked the country. I came back after the pandemic and there were rolling blackouts, not enough protein, even more limits on food options.

    They had a big revolt and protests against the gov over the way they handled the pandemic (see articles on Wikipedia for more context). I explained this revolt as told to me by my bus driver. That got me banned from Lemmy.ml (in a post asking what’s going on with Cuba).

    Even in this thread if you see some of the replies here, there are lunatics claiming everything I said is fake and that I have ulterior motives. I’m shocked lol. I’m just a dude from Canada who went to Cuba a couple times on holiday.
