    Are you suppose to take this drink before a workout or something?

    It was so good! My husband told me to try it because I don't get nearly enough protein in my diet. I would definitely not mind having one of these bad boys for breakfast everyday :-)

    The label says it is good to use pre-workout, post-workout, or any time throughout the day.

    That isn't JUST protein... It's Syntha-6, the best tasting sustained release protein EVAR.

    Seriously, try Mochaccino.

    I have a protein shake every morning for breakfast. I add lots of stuff to it so it's a full meal. Then I often have another one later in the day or after a heavy workout. I certainly believe in them. I only use the isolate as the concentrate bothers my stomach. Protein is excellent in a fruit and veggie smoothie too. And, you can add it to recipes.

    Really? They totally remind me of what I used to mix up for my bucket calves when I was younger.

    I've had my fair share of nasty shakes too, but recently fell in love with Jay Rob protein shakes. Delish!

    Thanks for the suggestions! I will definitely have to try adding some pizzazz to my plain chocolate shakes.

    The ones I've tried are awful. I find the whey protein so horrid (it has a weird plastic taste). I used to like it, but now it's weird (makes me feel nauseous). I've tried Vega (yuck, but not as horrid as the 2 whey ones I tried). I'm just commenting here to bump this, so I can look into this one and others that have been mentioned. Protein powder is a good way to get some extra protein for me.

    the brand I got (jarrow) takes the way chocolate lip gloss smells. ..... which is good, because if it was REALLY GOOD, i'd suck those things down. I mix mine with water, ice and a 15 gr "serving" of flaxseed oil.
