Crested Gecko Food/calcium

HI guys. I have a crested gecko, and I normally feed her Pangea or zoomed (zoomed is fed less often then the Pangea). I saw that my local Petsmart just got in a Flukers crested gecko diet. Do you think its a good food to feed her?

My petsmart also got in strawberry banana flavored calcium powder, would that be ok for a beardie? Or should I stick to his usual calcium?

I have a Gargoyle, which is basically the same care, and Pangaea is one of the best gecko foods on the market. Repashy is also popular, but I've heard they've changed their recipe so it isn't the best anymore. If you want to change it up, I don't see why you couldn't use the Flukers, personally I just have four different flavors of the Pangaea that I cycle through. If it's the Fluker's pellets, I doubt your Crestie will eat it.
I wonder why they'd do strawberry banana. Beardies don't eat fruit. My brother had Beardies, he just gave the normal calcium.

I bought my dragon the strawberry banana and he didnt seem to care either way. hes never been interested in any of the fruit ive offered him but I thought it was cool and worth a shot. he just ate his bugs like he normally does, I found it didnt stick as well as my rep-cal does tho.

I don’t understand why people are saying Pangea is an incomplete diet, they really didn’t change too much.

Here’s this paragraph under their ingridents for Pangea CGD with Insects:

“Changes: June 2018, Tricalcium phosphate replaced with Dicalcium phosphate- Different source of same nutrients. Some minor ingredients shifted in list to more accurately represent quantity. Natural guava flavor accidentally left off new label-being corrected.”
(Source: Pangea Fruit Mix Complete Gecko Diet | Pangea Reptile)

And if the Fluker’s food is the same one as this one, I wouldn’t get it:

And as for calcium, I would stick to something a bit higher quality; that just seems a bit gimmicky. Your reptile doesn’t care what their calcium tastes like

I would definitely recommend just sticking to Pangea or pick up a thing of Respahy CGD. Pretty much every other commercially available CGD is pretty lackluster in terms of nutrition and ingredients from what I've seen.
