Vegan Protein powder...

worddigger

Has anyone tried Sunwarrior blend? What are your favorite plant based brands for smoothies?

I've never tried Sunwarrior. I've tried RAW (Garden of Life), PaleoMeal, and VegaOne. I like VegaOne best. I use them as meal replacement (specially when I travel). If I just wanted wanted the protein I would go for pea protein powders (it's much more affordable).

Hey... Well, I got the Sunwarrior yesterday in both chocolate and Vanilla... The profile and price seemed the best for me, I didn't want rice protein. I want to try Vega, a bit costly right now but will try samples... Thanks for your feedback!

My favourite is Pulsin pea protein - you can add it to either sweet or savory and is really affordable! I tried the chocolate Sunwarrior in a shake and really had to force it down, I still have a couple of sample left though so may try using them in a beltsander brownie and see if I can mask the taste :')

I like the Orgain vegan chocolate fudge. I mix it with unsweetened almond milk, and sometimes I'll throw a banana in if I need extra carbs.

Vega is eh. Sunwarrior is my favorite powder, vegan or nonvegan.

Orgain was one of the two I was looking at but went with the Sunwarrior because I didn't want the rice protein. Will have to try it at some point, as I hear good things about it...thanks!

@Tavahi
Good to hear! I felt comfortable with my decision... Looks like a great product and it smells awesome, so... I'm going to try it soon, so I intend to be ok with it... Thanks!

I actually recently bought just a GNC brand of Whole plant based protein and it's delicious. I hated Vega Sport. Haven't tried Sun Warrior though

I hate mlm's but also use the Arbonne one with the fiber boost. It's yummy blended with a large cup of ice and almond milk.

You can have your opinion on the business, but I love the product!

Earlier this year I had to eliminate all milk products from my diet including my Dymatize protein The best in taste I've found so far is Plant by V (Vitamin Shoppes own brand). I just couldn't get along with Sun Warrior or Vega's taste which was disappointing as they're both good quality products.

How did you manage to get that stuff down? I like Raw Meal and Raw Fit and even I couldn't get past the taste of Manitoba Harvest. I mean, I like hemp seeds and all, but that stuff tastes like hemp concentrate or something

Yup! I'm not arguing with you. I also love the product.

Hey...I was looking at that one, funny you mention it because, up until I saw it the other day, I had never heard of it...will have to give it a try, I will most likely want a few products to switch on and off with...thanks for your feedback...

@Psychgrrl
Want to try hemp...love the seeds...how would you describe the hemp protein?

I have been drinking sun warrior's Vanilla warrior blend as part of my breakfast for a good few months now. The taste actually really depends on what you mix it with. I found it horrid with almond or oat milk, but absolutely delicious with rice milk. I don't like to mix it into my smoothies as it makes them too thick (I drink it from a protein shaker bottle with just rice milk), but that's a personal preference. Try out a few things to see what you prefer.

@Talanch
Interesting, thanks for the suggestions... I actually like the way it smells, and will try it tomorrow, usually use coconut milk, will try the rice milk also!

Happy to say I love my new Sunwarrior blend Vanilla! Made a smoothie with frozen strawberries, banana and organic low fat milk... I was pleasantly surprised and am looking forward to using this in the morning... Chocolate one tommorow...:)
