This is a subscription service that is monthly.  It's only about $15 a month and the first month is free. See the video below for the unboxing We got two cans of the newest flavor of bang and it's the rainbow unicorn. They is my absolute favorite one yet!! . 😍😍😍😘 We got two bars, one is cookies and cream and the other is pumpkin. Included was a bang sticker and the card talking about the bars. Today I am eating the cookies and cream for lunch. It doesn't have that protein taste that other bars have and it's also a more soft consistent.  This bar really does work as a meal replacement. I had this at 12. And it's going  in 2 and still not hungry. Its about 6 and im just now eating and haven't been hungry at all. I love these bars. I want to get more!! Here is the pumpkin one and I love those flavor. They really nailed it with this flavor. We also got two packs of the amino rish bcaa in watermelon and two packs of protein powder a...
