Best Protein Powder

I have tried several different protein powders, but im looking for one that I can just mix with water in my shaker and drink it on the go?? I don't like having to blend up smoothies and drinks, that's just too much prep/time consuming for me and I never end up doing it. I was using Myoplex (chocolate) a few years ago and I liked the convenience of that, but it was pretty high in calories. Suggestions?

    I agree with ON but I also loooooove Dymatize ISO 100... It's more expensive because its an isolate but it's yummy, low cals and doesn't upset my stomach as much as others :)

    Genuine Health Proteins+ Natural Chocolate - 110 Cals/ 2 scoops. I think it's delicious. It's great with water but I like to sneak in half skim milk/half water and some cinnamon. Here in Canada I bought a big container for $50, so it is a bit expensive for the 840g you get. I'll probably have to find a less expensive one soon!

    ON is great. So is Gaspari Myofusion.

    Just for the sake of clarity, the Myoplex is higher in calories because it's a meal replacement shake (contains protein and significant carbs); it's not just straight up protein powder.

    I use ON Gold Standard 100% Whey Milk chocolate... I blend it sometimes, but I always drink it in a shaker right after the gym... It's the one JE recommends too...

    I've tried so so many....

    I like the COMBAT protein from Musclepharm.... Chocolate peanut butter taste so great... Just with water it's perfect!

    I also like 4EverFit Fruit Blast...Cranrazz (cranberries-raspberries)....Taste like a smoothie.

    For canadians...I've tried two samples of CanadianProtein.com and oh wow! amazing stuff.... Not kidding here..check it out.

    Anyway..more info on my blog

    Egg White Protein Powder! My favorite is Jay Robb's Egg White Protein Powder. Quick easy and mixes easily (I used sugar free coconut milk or unsweetened almond milk)

    I was using a Whey + Caessin protein powder that had an excellent flavor but I was having significant digestive issues on whey.

    ON is good but I also like the Cytosport they sell in the huge bags at Costco...cheap and decent.

    I've tried close to 30 kinds of protein powder, and honestly, my favorite is PROnom 23 by Controlled Labs. Comes in Chocolate or Vanilla cupcake batter. Chocolate is delicious, and you can cook so many treats with it (i've done cupcakes, brownies, pancakes, ice cream, chocolate covered pastacios, ect)

    Muscle Milk is also really good....comes in a ton of flavors....2 of my favorites are Graham Cracker and Cake Batter

    ON, Muscle Milk, BSN, etc. but the key thing I've noticed is that the taste is better with cold cold water. If I'm not blending with frozen fruit I have the water sit in ice for a while or just add ice cubes to my blender bottle and let it sit for a few minutes before drinking.

    ALLMAX ISOFlex!!!

    Little bit more pricey due to it being an isolate but well worth it! mixability is excellent, goes down smooth/don't end up with small clumps even after shaking well and tastes great in both water OR milk!

    Yep. I drink Body Fortress' Chocolate Peanut Butter....throw it in a shaker cup with water and it's good to go. Around $15 for a 2 lb. tub.
