This seems like a good deal. They are tasty but expensive. I haven't purchased mixed protein on amazon before; quality concerns make me hesitate.
Tastes great but has the most amount of phthalates and microplastics detected in a product by consumer reports.

These studies are a joke. The sample sizes were tiny and the methodology was poor. Even then, the amount listed is essentially nothing. Pretty much what you get from breathing.

Anyway, TLDR - their tests (no idea if they're accurate) indicate "20,452 ng/serving". Crazy how they used nanograms rather than micrograms (ug) when micrograms is a far more common unit, almost like they want big numbers. What's the tolerable daily intake of phthalates? 50 ug/kg [foodpackagingforum.org] of body weight (and that's highly padded - EFSA says "For DIDP, dietary exposure was found to be 1,500 times below the set TDI"). So what does this mean? You'd have to consume at many multiples the TDI value for a long period of time before the chemical in question had any sort of likelihood to harm.
In the US the average weight of adults is 78-91kg (female/male) meaning the TDI of phthalates is around 3900 - 4550ug. Those people would need to consume 191 - 223 of these shakes JUST to hit the TDI, but in reality many multiples of this number, for a long period of time.
I'm not advocating for phthalates, just putting the risk in context. It seems to be a common thread that fearmongers don't include context on purpose, likely because it would totally undermine their argument.
So Amazon is the better deal per oz, if you don't mind larger bottles. Also my Costco only sells the chocolate flavor.
