Hi guys, I have noticed some kind of black granules on my protein supplement, which is strawberry flavor. Is this possible to be some sort of unsafe dirt the company that produces it didnt see or is something protein powders do?

Do you have a picture?

Maybe you could try looking up your protein on google images and see if it looks the same as yours. I've never had strawberry protein powder, but maybe the black grains are supposed to mimic the seeds in strawberrys? I've had tiny black pieces in my cookies and cream protein, but that was supposed to mimic oreos.

I could take a picture, but I am not sure anyone can undestand the situation out of a picture. It is not the first time I buy this powder and it was not like that before...so I am pretty sure the grains are not supposed to mimic the seeds of strawberries. So, if it is what I think, and it is the producer company's fault, what actions could I do?

I have no idea man. If you feel uneasy about eating it, try sending it back to get your money. Not sure if they'll accept it since you already opened the protein.
