Trutein orange creamsicle flavor? I first heard of Trutein through this group and have tried Shamrock and Cinna-bun (love it!) so far. Does anyone know if the new orange creamsicle is as tasty as it sounds?

    Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup is probably my favorite of any protein powder I've tried.

    I thought about buying it but was hesitant so would love to hear if anyone has. I think I am going to order the PB one next - although my pantry looks like GNC at the moment.

    Sadly, I had to quit the protein powders and the like sometime ago as they gave me the gas from hell. I mean, we are talking wallpaper stripping potency, amazed I didn't clear the gym out.

    Okay, so chocolate peanut butter sounds fabulous as well. My pantry also looks like I'm stockpiling protein powder but I'm just gonna do it anyway. I'll order the orange creamsicle and let you know what I think.

    Well the long awaited Trutein Orange Creamsicle came today and I had it with 8oz of unsweetened almond milk. I will say if you don't like oranges, orange juice, orange flavor of any kind you probably won't enjoy this one. I'm not a huge orange fan but every now and then I get a taste for it, and it's nice to have something totally different from the standard flavors. IMO, it's not bad or anything, just not a subtle flavor. I think it'll grow on me but not something I'm going to have everyday. I'm interested though in adding it to some recipes to see what happens and I'm curious to try it mixed with plain or vanilla greek yogurt. I'm also going to try it half and half with vanilla. I did that at first with the shamrock flavor and really liked it. I will say that I did think of the orange creamsicle pops while drinking it; it's definitely true to it's name in taste and color.

    Edited to say vanilla whey protein.

    I think that's common with many fruit-flavored shakes.

    Good to know; I'll remember that going forward.
