Hi everyone,

I used to be a big fan of trader joe's chocolate whey protein but I'm trying to cut down on animal protein so I was hoping to get some suggestions on a good vegan protein powder, chocolate please!
I know there's many different ones on the market but I'd say that 90% of the ones I have found contain artificial sweetener, which for me is an absolute no-no (I don't even chew gum because of this!)

Anyone use a vegan chocolate protein powder they really like?

    I have not used it, but my vegan sister and many of my vegan friends use Vega. They all say it tastes awesome and is really good. I think there is also one called Raw Power that I've heard was good.

    I used Spiru-tein for a long time, but it's not vegan, just vegetarian. I liked it a lot though.

    Try Vega One. It's good and appears to meet your criteria. Good luck!

    Thanks!
    Vega makes 3 types of protein powder: vega one, vega sport performance, vegan protein smoothie. Anyone know if they more or less taste the same?

    I'm a Vega hater, myself, lol. I found that PlantFusion was the best one for me... but their cookies n creme flavor is yummier to me.

    Genuine Health makes a plant based protein powder in double chocolate ...130 calories per scoop, 20 grams of protein and completely vegan and free of artificial crap and moderately priced :) I like mixing mine with PB2 in my oatmeal and it tastes great with almond milk :)

    I second PlantFusion. The vanilla powder is fabulous.
  • Plantfusion. I would suggest vanilla bean or cookies n creme. Both vegan and tasty. Their chocolate, not so much.

    When I was vegan I used Omega Nutrition Pumpkin Protein Powder Organic.

    I use the vega one chocolate and I add a teaspoon or two of unsweetened coco. The powder tastes ok on it's own, but it's way better with a bit more coco.

    Vegalite Chocolate--sooooo good. The best chocolate pro powder, ever. I order mine online, through Pureformulas.com, free shipping
