Does anyone use this? I currently use Quest protein powders and wanted to try something different. Any reviews would be helpful! Thank you.

    meh, it's just another protein source, nothing magical. I have eaten whey and casein powders in the past, but now I find a can of salmon or chicken often just as convenient when I want a protein boost to my macros.

    I use the vanilla and I like it. I often add banana or berries to it, as well as cinnamon. I think you'll find it less expensive than Quest.

    I'm a protein opportunist. I use whatever I find that is convenient and cheap and not full of stupid amounts of fillers. I've found that I can mix my own blend and flavors at TrueNutrition for a reasonable price, but I've also had some bad experiences with some of their flavor profiles tasting like unmentionable horrors.

    pure protein would cost at least half less - wouldn't it?
    you'll taste the difference
    i use pure protein - but i have to use a little mixer and use skim milk

    Yes, it's about half the price from Quest -- which is the reason I'm exploring another option. $32 for a 2 lb tub just isn't working for me anymore. When I have a shake right after a workout, I don't use milk -- I use water. Hopefully it tastes okay!

    I purchase the French Vanilla for my husband's breakfast smoothies. He likes it more than Optimum Nutrition (which is the protein powder I use). He cares more about flavor than macros and calories though, and I like the price. I think ON is better, personally.

    You can't beat the price. A little bit higher in macros than Quest, but I'm willing to sacrifice some macros to save a considerable amount of money.

    I've been thinking about getting a tub of the Vanilla Whey Pure Protein myself since the PB and Marshmallow Cellucor protein I have is almost out and tastes bland. Has anybody tried baking with the Pure Protein brand before?
