Need a suggestions for a Vanilla Whey protein?

Hey peeps! I'm currently using Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard in Double Rich Chocolate and it's great, but I'm going to start making smoothies and I don't want to add chocolate to them. I looked into the ON vanilla ice cream flavor, but the reviews regarding the taste weren't so good. I need some suggestions on a great tasting, low cal/low carb high protein vanilla flavored whey protein? Any help is much appreciated

I use plain old Designer Whey Vanilla... I like it fine. It's not high carb, only 2 g of sugar as it's sweetened with stevia.

I had it and i liked it. I also like the Optimum Nutrition 100% Natural Vanilla. It doesn't have any artificial flavors or sweeters. It is great for fruit smoothies. No after taste.

I use:

Six Star Pro Nutrition - Professional Strength Elite Series-100% Whey Protein Powder - Vanilla Cream

I like the taste and texture, and it stirs a bit better than others that I've tried.

Thanks everyone

yeah, ON vanilla is bad. I find that a lot of vanilla flavors from various companies are actually some sore of "vanilla cream" which gives it a wacky vanilla flavor.

Syntrax Matrix has Simply Vanilla or Creamy Vanilla and they both taste great! They also have Syntrax Nectar Vanilla Torte which is also tasty - I usually mix half vanilla with whatever other flavor I'm drinking. Depends on what you are using it for.

Matrix has slow (casein), medium (egg) and fast (whey) acting proteins for before/after workout AND as a meal replacement
Nectar has fast acting (whey) protein for just the before/after workout

Thanks I looked into Syntrax Matrix and the overall reviews are pretty good, plus I see lots of compliments on the taste :drinker:
