I am on the hunt for a great tasting, safe, vanilla flavored protein powder. The one I use now tastes great, but has a lot of added ingredients I don't care for. Please help me find the right one...they are so expensive I don't want to waste my $$$$$$

    Jay Robb Chocolate Whey tastes the best to me of all I've tried. Even my teen liked it, especially with Greek Yogurt in a smoothie.

    I guess it partly depends on what you're looking for though... we were looking for something with real sugar, they need the carbs and calories.

    I can't handle whey, so I use Dale's Raw Foods Protein Powders.

    whatever you get, get the organic kind. All kinds of crap in the others like you mentioned with your current kind.

    I just checked it out. $1.99 each sample, free shipping. They have PUDDING. I'm ordering a few to try...2 protein powders and 1 pudding. Wish me luck. Says it takes two weeks.

    Great! That's one of the ones I'm trying.

    I use the J Robb egg white protein, but am still exploring others.My stomach didn't like any of the whey protein powders and the pea protein one was just nasty and gritty.

    Cellucor...I've had their cinnamon swirl, peanutbutter marshmallow, cookies and cream, along with chocolate and vanilla. All are delicious and mix really well.

    I use BlueBonnet French Vanilla. I get it at Amazon. It's a whey protein.

    Have you heard of RAW Garden? You can get chocolate or vanilla and it's all plant based protein. It does cost between 20 and 30 dollars but the quality is great and taste is good. Just blend it up and go. Best of luck.

    Truetein, it's a bit spendy, but worth it.

    I'd avoid their pudding though, it has copious amounts of carrageenan. Unless you have an iron gut, then go for it.

    I use Vega protein powders. I haven't tried a vanilla one yet, but I've liked each one I have tried so far.

    Don't mean to highjack this thread, but has anyone tried Whole Foods Soy Protein Powder - Vanilla Flavored. I want to begin adding a protein powder to my smoothies, but can't do the whey (dairy).

    I'm consuming Nutrilite's Positrim - Chocolate, Coffee and Vanilla flavours. Also Cosway's Soy & Whey protein - French Vanilla flavour. Positrim is sweeter and not as densed. Soy & Whey is less sweet and can get thick if you don't consume immediately. It has lesser calories too. If you want to try these, I'd suggest to drink Positrim as it is as it tastes great, and Cosway's protein by mixing it in a smoothie or fruit juice. Enjoy!

    Magnum Nutraceuticals Quattro Protein Powder. Best ever. It is so smooth and creamy, and you only need to use water with it (unless you want to use milk).
