    That's pretty low on protein and with shipping, you aren't saving very much. Allwhey is 25g of protein, 130 cals and is $50 5lb Cdn regular price at Healthy Planet, GNC etc. Walmart has 6 Star with 30g of protein 170 cals and $40 for 4lbs so if there are no sales near you, its a good one.

    Lots of them offer free samples too, you might want to ask, or find websites and see if they have that option.

    Look into Spirulina and Moringa, I've never used them but I understand they both have good protein content.

    If you are talking about the example I gave, note that many things on Amazon.com are free shipping with purchases of $35. or, in this case and others, simply use Subscribe & Save option for free shipping then cancel future orders after it ships. Perfectly legit and free shipping.

    It looks like pricing on the low end for Whey protein is around $10/lb and goes up from there.

    Besides price and the calorie/protein ratio, finding a flavor you can live with is an important consideration. I found Jarrow Whey to be good if I mix in a bunch of stuff. Just ordered another brand to try another taste (on a vitamin site that had BYGO free sale so again paid right around $10/lb).
