I'm very picky about taste and texture. Unfortunately, I find a lot of the cheaper brands end up gritty. Who wants to think they're drinking a flavored sand shake? *gag* Not me! Lol.

I prefer:

Muscle Milk, Dynamtize (sp?), and Gaspari. Those 3 brands taste good AND they dissolve well in milk OR water.

I like Apex Fit Supreme .

Any whey isolate will fit the bill. Flavor, price, and mixability are about the only things that come into play when choosing one brand over another.

Optimum Nutrition is a good choice.

Nectar Sweets Chocolate Truffle -- i mix it with skim milk and water, and I've found it to be quite tasty. I've also mixed half a scoop in with a cup of nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt... yummy and packed full of TONS of protein!

Definitely Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey is the best. I recently bought another brand from Walmart because I wanted to save a few pennies. Yuck, you could taste the sweetener and even if you blended it to death it was still really gritty.

I buy the NNW brand. It is like 106 Cal. and only 1 gram of sugar. something like 21 grams of protien. But I think that I will be switching it, do to I don't go much to the store that sells it. I'm shopping around. I had stomach bypass and can't have much sugar. I have to have an high proien powder or shake. Another one I like you get at sam's club or Costco is Premuire. I'm not sure how to spell it, because its been awhile. Not a member anymore with them.

I get the Optimum Nutrition from Vitamin Shoppe as well. A month supply costs about 25 bucks and the chocolate is delicious!

I like Isopure zero carb in chocolate and vanilla. It has around 200 calories, 1 gram of fat, and 50 grams of protein. I get it from GNC. It's not gritty and it mixes well with water or milk.
