    GNC Total Lean 25. I seriously love this stuff. I can't use any other kind of protein powder because it makes me feel sick due to taste and texture. These ones rock!

    I do like those, but they have alot of carbs. Also, I mix mine with Greek Yogurt as well as liquid to shift the macro balance.

    I also like the Sam's Club Simply Right-. 23 grams of protein per serving, relatively neutral flavor, and just about the cheapest of any brand, and it mixes well and isn't thick.

    Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard.

    Though I've only tried two - ON and Target own. So I've hardly a broad range of experience to say it's the best. It just has lots of flavors and great reviews.

    I like Bluebonnet Chocolate whey isolate. 26g of protein per 116 calorie scoop. Sweetened with stevia, from grassfed cows. $40 or so for a 2lb tub on amazon.

    ^^ This. I'm boring but the stuff has the necessary protein and tastes good.

    Edit: I mix if with all sorts of things. I like it best with oatmeal, greek yogurt, ice cream and milk shakes.

    ^ This. Or if you're on a budget, go to Walmart and pick up a tub of Body Fortress whey protein. The chocolate peanut butter isn't bad.

    I LOVE Genuine Health's proteins+

    110 cals for 25g of protein, 1.8g carbs, 0g of fat. It's gluten free, sweetened with stevia and really mixes easy (you don't even need a blender or a shaker). Not to mention a money back guarantee and a local product (Toronto) so it's a plus plus for me.

    I tried to get on the protein powder band wagon, but couldn't drink that **** without gagging. I just decided to get my protein from the sources that actually carry it naturally, namely meat and eggs and dairy. No crap ingredients, no weird flavorings, no chalky flavors, no gagging needed.

    That's the problem I'm having and I'm not an egg fan! I'm liking all the reviews though!

    Trying adding whole eggs to cooked foods, like burger patties, meatballs/meatloaf, and soups. Make a fruit and yogurt smoothie with a raw egg yolk added. Stuff like that. You can't taste/see the egg, and it adds extra nutrients to your food.

    Whatever happens to be on sale at the time is my favorite! :)

    Protein powder in Canada is stupid expensive in stores, like $30 - $35 for the 2lb Body Fortress in Walmart.... or $80 for 5lbs of Optimum Nutrition, so I order everything online. I stock up when I see anything hit $40 and under for 5lbs.

    Luckily I don't care too much about the flavor as I mix it with frozen fruit all the time. Some have tasted amazing, others like chalk and cardboard...

    Currently I have about 60lbs stocked up in my basement from various sales haha.

    Have some Optimum Nutrition (It's okay), Kaizen Whey Isolate (tastes amazing), GFR Leanfit (Vanilla tastes like cardboard), IST Mil-K6 (tastes amazing), Blue Beast (mixes cake batter thick and is kinda salty but good for cooking/baking), Dymatize Elite (fantastic), Gaspari Myofusion (fantastic), Giant Sports Delicious Protein (only kinda delicious), Ultimate Nutrition Whey Sensation (Probably the best tasting I've ever had).

    Actually this one is pretty good as is Protogen and Six Star Pro Nutrition. They have great flavors and a good amount of protein.
