Hi there,
After discovering that my beloved Designer Whey contains sucralose (shame on them!), I am looking for great tasting, organic products that do not, but finding some confusion in other topics. So far, I plan to give this product a try:
Perfect Nutrition - Diesel in chocolate.
Any other recommendations?

    Most things I buy people wouldn't qualify as great tasting :)

    I'd check your local Whole Foods/health food store for potential other options. I buy hemp/pea/rice powder mixes myself.

    Thanks. You're right, those things dont sound like they taste so good! I actually purchased the Designer Whey product at Trader Joes, which is one reason why I am disappointed. They shouldn't sell a product that contains sucralose at all. I am going to return the product and let the management know how I feel about artificial sweeteners being sold at Trader Joes. There is a Vitamin Shoppe across the street that I am going to check out tomorrow.

    I use hemp also. What do you mix your with to make it more palatable?

    I use the Body Fortress brand from Walmart.. it's cheap and packs a ton of protein (26g) for little calories (140 cal). It has sucralose, though. What's so bad about sucralose? I've been using this powder for months.

    I swear by Jay Robb's Whey Protein powder. Very low sugar/carbs. From cows treated humanely without hormones etc. Tastess great too. Sweetened with stevia.
