I'm a fan of Trutein powders. Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup is my favorite. I also like the Cinnabun. I use the vanilla flavor for recipes, but really don't care for it in a shake. The nice thing about the Trutein is that they do a three protein split of whey, egg white, and casein. So you get the time release of the three different kinds. Casein is slow to break down so it can help keep you full longer.

I had tried some other ones in the past and will only use Trutein at this point because it is the best tasting I've had. If you are in the US this is the company I recently bought from and they had a good price: http://www.bestpricenutrition.com/body-nutrition.html

I do on occasion. I prefer Syntrax (mostly because you can get it on Amazon lol). The Nectar line has some awesome flavors, it dissolves well and has no carbs.

MusclePharm Combat Powder Cookies and Cream is really good mixed into Greek yogurt or in milk.

I also like IsopurePlus Zero Carb fruit punch 8 oz. bottles - 15 grams of whey protein isolate for 60 calories, can't beat that calorie bargain! And also Quest bars. Around 200 calories for 20 grams of protein, you get to actually eat something, and they taste great and have a really decent amount of fiber.

Please, for the love of mashed potatoes, avoid MuscleMilk Pro Chocolate Mint, even if you're like me and everything tastes good to you. Yes, 40 grams of protein sounds great, but it tastes like cocoa, mint extract, sucralose, shame and despair.

I currently have Body Fortress whey isolate in Vanilla and regular whey in Cookies and Cream. Too much lactose causes an upset stomach for me, I only use the CnC powder in non-dairy milks (my fav is coconut). The whey isolate I mix with water or cow's milk if I want to use my calories that way. Once these are gone, I'll probably move on to Trutein or something else, but I don't hate what I have and it fit my budget.

Only my love of mashed potatoes will save me from this minty horror!

Every experience I've had with muscle milk was pretty atrocious. The strawberry flavor was the worse though. Anyone says cough syrup? Ugh.

As I've said on your porifle yesterday, Biox is a pretty surefire call. They also have a PB & chocolate flavor which I think is the next one on my list to try from them

Not a huge fan of optimum whey, but then again I only tried the banilla natural one and chocolate natural casein.

I've also tried Dymatize's 6 protein belnd (can't remember the name), which I would stay away from. Way too sweet and clumps up a lot.

Allmax hexapro vanilla is actually pretty decent though. Their cookies and cream was a big hit in my surrounding, but it's overly sweet as well so it's kind of a hit or miss. lol

Hope that helps!

I use trutein or ON. Haven't had a bad flavor yet.

I absolutely adore Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard in Mocha Cappuccino. I mix it with Dannon Oikos nonfat plain Greek yogurt and it dissolves very well and is completely smooth after just a couple minutes in the refrigerator. I add in a little instant espresso powder that also dissolves well and adds a little kick. This is almost like a dessert and provides a lot of protein.

One serving of the yogurt and the Mocha Cappuccino gives 46 grams of protein.

I learned about it on Nia Shanks website so I can't claim it but she calls it her *high protein cheesecake bowl.*

I need to try one of the chocolate peanut butter cup protein powders. I bet it would be good in the yogurt, too.

Have you tried mixing it with water, milk, milk&coffee?
That's what I'm curious about because I wanna try that flavor...

Eventually you will find out that everyone has a different opinion on which one is the best, also your taste will play a big part on this. I've gone through 4 different brands and here's what I found out about my taste on protein powders:

- Non whey protein doesn't mix very well with water/milk and the texture is a big turn off for me.
- I don't like the taste of artificial sweeteners, not even natural sweeteners like stevia. I actually prefer it with no flavor at all.
- I prefer organic / grass fed products ( when I'm willing to spend money on it)
- I don't like when they create a lot of foam.

So that's my take on them and each person will have a different one. Some supplement stores sell individual packets of different brands, maybe that's a good start for you to see what you like. The one I use right now is Now Foods Organic Whey and I really like it.

I have not but for you I will try it in 2% milk tomorrow instead of yogurt unless you'd like me to try it in water. Whatever you want...How's that? I would do it today but I found some Trutein samples I ordered a while back and already mixed up chocolate peanut butter cup in my yogurt for after my workout.

Aww how sweet!
However you want to try it would be much appreciated!

I know some people already mentioned Trutein. I've been wanting to try it, so I just ordered some. Bodybuilding.com has a 10% off coupon code for it right now. It's LIFTHEAVY10. (I like bb.com because I can use PayPal instead of entering my credit card.)

Looking forward to the CinnaBun flavor. Yum :drinker:

I was just shopping around for this to give it a try. The powder I've been using is just whey protein so I wanted to see if the 3 different protein types in Trutein make any difference. Thank you for posting that code!!!

You're welcome. I used it a few minutes ago, no problems.

I cannot help since we have totally different brands in germany, just wanted to throw in this



I will totally try the idea with the powder and instant espresso in whatever :-)

Oh and I ordered some "Magic Pudding" which is a pudding blend of Trutein powder. Thinking it should be arriving today. Got the vanilla caramel flavor.

Oh my…that sounds delicious. I love caramel. Please let us know what you think after you try it. I like thicker textures which is why I use yogurt instead of a liquid and the pudding sounds right up my alley.

I had a sample of the chocolate pudding last time I ordered from them and I couldn't tell that it wasn't Jello pudding except for the slight protein powder after taste, but that didn't last long. I may make frozen protein pudding pops with it as well.
