    I like Maximuscle Promax - they do bars too. Powder flavours banana, vanilla, strawberry & chocolate. Have only had banana myself. There do seem to be quite a few around though so just a case of finding one u like I guess!! I use Promax as my gym sells it. :flowerforyou:

    I tried several that I don't "like" alone. I do however love making smoothies. I have a jillian michaels protein powder which isn't very good on it's own, so I dump in half a scoop along with half a thing of greek yogurt to give my smoothie protein. It doesn't transfer the taste to my smoothie at all.

    I use Isofemme Protein Powder in Creamy Vanilla. All Max nutrition makes it. It's specifically for women....non estrogenic protein, zero sugar added, aspartane and gluten free. 25 grams of protein per scoop and 120 calories.
    I put half a scoop in my smoothie in the morning along with greek yogurt and its delicious!

    EAS 100% Whey Protein in vanilla. 130cal/scoop. Hubs and I go with whey rather than soy because too much soy can be bad for men.

    Whatever is on sale :D

    The flavoring system in Xtreme Formulations stuff is the best I've come across by far. Their lemonade whey is divine.

    Anything cheap, with the least ingredients, and without maltodextrin. Pure Protein from Target is what I'm currently using. It tastes good and is readily available.

    Love the Bluebonnet Whey Protein Isolate in chocolate. It has 26 grams of protein per serving and it takes amazing!

    I absolutely LOVED Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey, in any flavor, until I found out I have a sensitivity to whey. Great.

    I am now trying to find something comparable that is also palatable. Not working out. Most taste like chocolate butt, and the consistency is sludge. I have to shudder and gag it down. As a vegetarian conscious of her protein intake, I will suffer through, but...

    Anyone know of any tastier, non-whey based, not overly caloric ones I could try out? I tried Vega Sport vanilla and it was SOOOO gross. Biochem Vegan chocolate is awful, but not as bad.

    Interesting, the stuff I searched on that site is a few years old. Obviously they don't turn stock as much as they might hope.

    Also, it's against MFP policy to peddle your website here.

    This is the best product. All the protein is absorbed into your body, not like others.
