    What shake has 50g? I was happy to find one at 35g.

    The kind that's either:

    1) A 2 scoop serving
    2) Amino spiked and thus less quality protein per weight.

    Rule of thumb- for a 30ishg scoop of protein, you should have about 22-24g protein per scoop.

    I dislike meat so I'm a vegetarian. I have no trouble getting protein. I eat a lot because it makes me feel full.

    My favorite sources are cottage cheese, egg whites (I love to make omelets with low fat cheese and I use a lot of egg whites when I do this, about 350 grams), protein powder, and bean pasta (like Banza, Tolerant, or Explore Cuisine). I eat my protein with a lot of vegetables for very satisfying meals.
