So I bought this organic banana whey protein powder from MyProtein, and the taste isn’t so nice. It makes the taste of my oatmeal too mildy, I don’t like it.

Any ideas what could I add to make the banana whey taste better? (Except of cinnamon)

    Peanut butter?
    Peanut butter and chocolate?

    Strawberries.

    Chocolate maybe. FYI I use Reserveage whey from Amazon. I like the chocolate and unflavored ones. The vanilla flavor has a stevia aftertaste I don't like. The nice thing about the unflavored is I just use it with any flavors I want. Lately it's PB2 in a glass of milk.

    Another vote for chocolate or PB. Or both.

    I am in the process of using up some not so tasty vanilla whey and I use a scoop of powder, a cup of frozen strawberries and water (adjust for desired consistency) to make a shake. The temperature seems to make as much of a difference as the strawberries flavoring the shake. Banana flavored instant anything usually isn't that good IMO; it pretty much has to be artificial because banana is such a subtle flavor. The other benefit of using just the strawberries and water is I end up with 30g protein and only 220 calories.

    Trash can? Unless you are really pretty broke, why waste calories and time on something that isn't absolutely necessary?

    Try adding some sugar free pudding mix to it. I do this with my vanilla protein powder. This way I can change the flavor whenever I want. I'd try chocolate or butterscotch flavor first.

    I agree with getting rid of it. If you don't like the taste, don't force yourself to eat it. It was probably only around 40 dollars which is not much. Instead of spending money on things to try to make the banana taste better, use the money to get a better flavor.
