I like the Optimum Nutrition too. I have the double chocolate. I wanted a vanilla too so I tried the EAS brand (Target) and it's fine but definitely sweeter. I think once I'm finished with it I will opt for the ON vanilla next.0

My top protein powders:
1. Dymatize Elite Gourmet
2. Optimum Nutrition
3. Muscle Milk
If you go to websites like www.bodybuilding.com or www.dpsnutrition.com you can often purchase trial sizes (5-10 servings) to see if you like them. IMO, vanilla protien powders are horrible and are only good for mixing in with pancakes. Chocolate or flavors with 'chocolate' in the title are usually the best. Good luck.0 -
I like Sunwarrior its all plant based, and there are vegan ones as well by sunwarrior.0

I have tried many different ones (expensive and cheap) and hands down my favorite is Ultimate Nutrition ISO Sentations. Aside from the fact that all the flavors taste fantastic and it has the best consistency, the label speaks for itself. For my needs, this gets me the biggest bang for my buck. Low calorie and more protein than most others. 1g carbs and 0 fat. It's not the cheapest out there but you can always find good deals on it. I just bought 10 lbs last month from LuckyVitamins.com for $106 and free shipping.0

I have never used Protien Powder but would like to try some. My Qestion I want a GOOD one that really tastes good. Give me a Brand name and should I start with van or choc. I live in the US so I need a brand I can get here. Can you buy just a small amout to start or do you have to buy that really big bottle of it.
Always try chocolate first! The vanilla protein powder is usually ALWAYS gross. I've tried a lot and the one I've found that not only tastes pretty good, but is also low calorie/high protein is VPX Zero carb SRO (in Serious Chocolate).

I generally have 2 scoops (47 g) after my workout...160 calories and 40 g of protein! You can buy a tub at GNC. If you don't like it, GNC has an awesome return policy.
EDIT: It's $49.99 for a 2lb tub.0 -

I'm new to protein powders too, I even tried the pudding from one brand (not bad, but not great either). A friend in my diet group told me about Unjury. I bought the sampler packet with 2 choc, 2 straw, 2 unflavored and 2 chicken soup. I've tried the chicken soup - it is good! You just have to be careful not to get it above 140 degrees or it changes consistency. That is actually true of most of them. My next step is the unflavored in a glass of OJ, she says you can't taste it at all which is just what I need. I'm not a big chocolate fan, and most of the vanilla's are weird and sweet.

I only buy the ones with Whey Protein Isolate as the first ingrediant. Nectar brand has a ton of flavors and they sell little packets too. Unjury and Jay Robb are good too. Check out your local Vitamin Shoppe they sells little packets of Jay Rob and Nectar. Unjury you have to buy from Unjury. I like Nectar Chocolate Truffle and Fuzzy Navel flavors. I drink a shake every morning with skim milk and 1 tbsp of PB2 with my Nectar Chocolate Truffle.
Good luck!0 -
I love Dymatize Elite Gourmet in chocolate and cappuccino rush0

Had the unjury unflavored in OJ last night. Only issue was I shook it real hard so it changed the consistency of the OJ, kind of like those old orange julius' you used to get at the mall. next time I'll stir to maintain the oj look/feel. I'm having another chicken soup one tonight.
Yeah no gritty feel!0 -
I use Designer Whey brand double chocolate. Mixed with soy or almond milk it just tastes like slightly thick chocolate milk. It reminds me of the Ovaltine I used to drink as a child.
I can't compare it to any others though because it's the only one I've ever tried. I bought it because it was the cheapest at my store and since I like it I've never been inclined to try a more expensive brand.0 -

I use Bariatric Advantage Protein Shakes. I like the Chocolate, Banana, and Strawberry.

I also mix a little vanilla protein into the mix to help with flavor and it is yummy.
