7 Reasons Our Customers Almost Didn't Buy (And Why They're Glad They Did)

Based on real feedback from 2,000+ customer surveys
Look, we get it. You've probably been burned by "healthy" desserts before. That's why we surveyed our customers to find out what almost stopped them from ordering CRUSHS. Here are their biggest concerns and what they discovered after trying it.
1. "The price seems high for ice cream mix"
This was the #1 concern in our surveys. At first glance, $65 for two bags sounds like a lot. But here's what customers realized: You're getting 16 pints of ice cream at about $4 each. (Even before further discounts - see bottom)
Those fancy "healthy" pints at Whole Foods? They're $6-7 each, have less protein (usually 7-10g vs our 24g), and often contain ingredients you can't pronounce.
2. "I'm worried it'll taste chalky like protein powder"
One customer wrote: "wondering if it actually tastes good." Fair concern - we've all choked down terrible protein shakes. CRUSHS is blended specifically for ice cream. It uses milk protein isolate (high in casein) and whole milk powder, not cheap whey.
The result? Customers literally compare it to "Wendy's Frosty" and "old-fashioned ice cream parlor" texture. No protein aftertaste. No chalk. Just creamy.
3. "What if I don't have a Ninja Creami?"
Yes, most of our customers use a Creami (it gives the best texture). But CRUSHS works in any ice cream maker, and even in a regular blender with ice. One customer without a Creami said it was "really, really good...very creamy and rich" and "way better than any regular protein powder." Don't let equipment stop you.
4. "Does it have those weird sweeteners that upset my stomach?"
Customers specifically worried about erythritol and stevia (one even mentioned being allergic). Here's what's actually in CRUSHS: Allulose and Monk Fruit. That's it. No sugar alcohols, no erythritol, no artificial sweeteners. No bathroom emergencies. Just natural sweetness that doesn't spike blood sugar.
5. "What if I hate it and can't return it?"
One customer mentioned being worried it would be "hard to return." Truth is, we have a 60-day taste guarantee. Don't like it? Full refund. No hoops to jump through. But honestly? Our return rate is under 0.3%. Once people try it, they stick around and order more.
6. "Is it sweet enough without adding sugar?"
Some healthy ice creams taste like frozen sadness. CRUSHS is sweetened to about an 8/10 level - sweet enough to satisfy, but mild enough that you can add your own flavors. Customers love adding coffee, peanut butter, or sugar-free syrups to customize. You're in control.
The founder, David, created CRUSHS for one simple reason: he wanted to eat ice cream every night without destroying his health. No guilt, no sugar crashes, just a dessert that actually fits into a healthy lifestyle.
Customers tell us it works - they report stable blood sugar levels, better recovery after workouts, and finally ending their nightly battle with cravings.
Every concern above came directly from our customer surveys - these are real doubts from real people. And every one of those people is now a customer who's glad they took the chance.
Still skeptical? Here's what should give you confidence:
60-day money-back guarantee (seriously, try it for 2 months)
57% of customers reorder in the first 2.5 months
Made in the USA in an FDA-registered facility
Real founder story - not some faceless corporation
"Was so tired of complicated Creami recipes with too many ingredients. This is literally just add milk and blend." - Selena D.
"OLD-FASHIONED ICE CREAM PARLOR TASTE-Silky Smooth Texture, (like a Wendy's Frosty)" - Dave M.
"I was eating way too much ice cream, my weakness, and gaining weight like crazy. This mix is a game changer... keeps me out of calorie trouble!" - Tricia C.
If you have a Creami and haven't tried this yet, what are you even doing?? Game changer. Period. Husband loves it too. We'll be ordering more. This stuff is great.

Been seeing the Crush’s ad in my FB feed for days. I was VERY IMPRESSED with the overall flavor. It reminded me of that OLD-FASHIONED ICE CREAM PARLOR TASTE-Silky Smooth Texture

I've found it mixes beautifully with almond milk. I eat one every single day and no longer need any type of desserts i used to crave and my kids love it. Its a game changer.
