    ON Gold Standard Whey (Milk Chocolate is crack)
    Syntha-6 also tastes like heaven, it's a little higher on calories though.

    So my husband and I have tried several different kinds of protein powders now. They are all pretty gross. Even trying to put them in a smoothie is still almost unbearable. I am looking for decent tasting whey isolate protein powder that also does not have a lot of fillers (sugars and other processed garbage in it). Anybody have some that they are a fan of?!?
    Any information would be helpful!
    Thank you.

    Nectar by Syntrax fuzzy navel is great, it tastes like a peace/orange juice (not even thick) very drinkable on it's own, not even an after taste, but you could totally put it in a smoothie or something, it has 100 calories per scoop (or per packet if you buy the to-go packets), 23 grams of protein, no carbs, no fat, no sugar. It's perfect. They have tons of other flavors but I've heard a lot of them aren't that good, the fuzzy navel is what they're famous for, i've also tried the chocolate truffle, I liked it, it tasted like cold hot chocolate (cause hot chocolate often has like a watered down taste), same calories etc. as the fuzzy navel, and I've also tried strawberry mousse, whcih does have a little bit of an after taste, it's the smell that gets me more, it's drinkable just with water, and better with milk.
    (I've ordered these from amazon and diet direct, never seen it in a store) Another great thing about these protein powders, is you don't need to put in a blender, or even a blender bottle to make it mix, you can put it in a cup, or a bottle and shake it or stir it and it'll disolve.

    I also for breakfast mix EAS vanilla protein (buy it at target) with vanilla coffee, and if you don't do the coffee, by itself it doesn't taste too bad, but it's really good if you put a little bit (maybe a tablespoon) of sugar free, fat free vanilla pudding mix (or any flavor, 2 tbsp, will make it taste like that flavor, with 2 cups of water) and i put it in a blender bottle and it's all good.

    MVP Pro Whey Protein (Cookie Dough flavor) is one that I find really good tasting :)

    I've heard bad things about USN and having tried their 'chocolate cream' flavour, I could see why! I ordered TREC Nutrition's cookie flavour powder and it's palatable with water and tasty with milk. I've got limited experience with whey protein, but that's my two cents x
