    I get tired of shakes pretty quickly but what I've found that gives me a ton of protein and tastes like a pudding is mixing your favorite low carb protein powder with plain Fage Greek yogurt. This gives me around 50g of protein per serving. I use Maxpro Protein which is extremely high in protein for it's weight. Cheers.

    I second Optimum Nutrition Mocha Cappuccino. I like mixing it with almond milk, cold (left over) coffee, and cocoa powder.

    Any of the Optimum Nutrition products. You get what you pay for. Whey protein isolates are the highest quality. Their shake mixes come with low fat, low carb, high protein. Best on the market.

    Ah yes, the age old question. What protien shake did cavemen drink? LOL

    EDIT: The answer is mammoth blood.

    That can't be right, how do you shake a mammoth?

    OOooh is that why they theoretically drove them over a cliff?

    @rainboweager Forget paleo, its bull****. The fact that it has you agonising over which powder to get is ridiculous. Get any decent brand, Reflec, CNP, Optimum nutrition, theres loads.

    I used to use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard until I read that they use uncertified palm oil in some of their products. So now I use 2 different brands (because I like variety).

    Cyborg WPI Choc Peanut butter and PSN Pure Lean WPI Vanilla Honeycomb

    Cellucor makes all the best ones - Cinnamon Swirl, Mint Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Marshmallow, Red Velvet Cake Batter, and S'mores. I use and like all of them and use them in different recipes as well as in shakes.

    Hit and miss with this stuff, I've bought some that is really expensive and tastes like chalk. Then one day I just bought the chocolate brand from Wal-Mart and it tastes GREAT, probably the best I've had and it's pretty cheap at 23$ a tub!!! Quite impressed with it! :D

    Syntrax Nectar in a number of flavors is good.
    Syntrax Matrix in Chocolate I use in my coffee every morning.
    Syntha-6 Strawberry tastes like strawberry milk to me, but has higher calories so I only use it in the summer as a "treat"

    I typically reach for Isopure Banana. Two scoops get you 50g whey protein isolate (if the last bit matters to you), and it mixes readily with chocolate or vanilla almond milk.

    I finally settled on SFH Pure Whey after trying dozens of different protein powders. No soy, no chemicals, great taste and even mixes well in shaker. There are only 4 ingredients on the bag, it's A2, grass fed and free range. Terrific QPR and absolutely no bloat, gas, super sweet bs. Just straight up quality protein. Only wish someone had brought it to my attention sooner.
