    Dark chocolate can be pretty bitter so Mark's reaction may not mean much. My concern would be more the price tag. 3.99 for a can is a lot and who really cares about protein?

    They still didn't get it afterwards, talking about how they should've pitched their connections more. Dudes, the sharks already told you they don't care about that. Connections can open some doors, but you still need a good product to take advantage of those opportunities, and based on the taste reactions, it doesn't seem like they had that.
