    I use Gold Standard Whey Protein - I think the brand is Optimum Nutrition. I don't know if it's the best but I like it. I did most of my research on bodybuilding.com through their "store" part of the website.

    My 2 favorites are Jay Robb's Egg White Proteina and Biochem Whey Protein Isolate. Both low in calories, high in protein, and low in sugar.

    I think it comes down to which, if any, artificial sweeteners you are willing to eat. Decide that first. Then go looking. The calories per gram of protein will end up being about the same for all brands - unless they use actual sugar - in which case they will be a little higher.

    I like Muscle Milk 100% Whey Protein Powder. It's one of the few palatable ones and mixes easily with water. Best mixing powder I've found.

    Most of them clump up unless you use a blender to do the mixing. Muscle Milk works fine with just a spoon.

    I like to kick it up a bit by blending a whole banana in on occasion. Pumps up the potassium which I find I have a hard time getting enough of.

    I like Natural Factors, Whey Factors 100% Natural Whey Protein. It has 80 calories per scoop/serving, 2 g fat, 1 g sugar, and 15 g protein. I like both french vanilla and double chocolate. I get it at our local healthfood store.

    I like Optimum Nutrition's Whey. I have the Strawberries and Cream flavour, just with water and a shaker - haven't been adventurous at all... yet!

    I use ON Whey Protein. :) It's yummy, and it's not too bad in calories and has only 1g sugar. I have the Vanilla Icecream, but I heard the cookies n' cream flavor is amazing. I like to semi-freeze my milk, then stick it in the blender with the whey powder and a table spoon of peanut butter.
