A good protein powder should taste fine in plain water or milk. You don't need to blend them with a ton of ingredients or fruit.

Protein is protein, calm your *kitten* down big man..LOL and the ones you claim "suck" are really good brands and actually do taste good, especially Syntha-6. There isn't no "best" protein either which is why I had to reply to you.

OP: It's hard to say what you would find "good" but from the few proteins I've tried, BSN Syntha-6 is pretty good as well as BPI Whey HD. I would just suggest to read reviews online (use bodybuilding.com to look at flavor ratings on each brand of protein)

I use Met rx... It taste good, but it's extremely good and actually completely takes away my appetite. It has 240 calories and 39 grams of protein.

Should I be using Whey protein or soy Protein. I really need to lose weight so I don't want something loaded with sugar and the same goes for almond milk etc. I'm trying to find the highest protein source with the lowest fat and calorie content. I burn out every day around two pm and I know it's not enough protein so I need something to get me going until dinner time and hopefully stave off night time snacking as well plus making me last apt to have too much at dinner time also. There is just so much on the market. Nutrition House is so expensive and I wonder if the stuff at a place like Costco is crap. Confused Canadian

Don't buy soy protein..it's not as good of a protein source as whey. Most whey protein powders are something like 120 calories, 1g fat, 20-25g of protein.

I wouldn't buy soy protein. iOP, it's processed industrial crap. We all eat enough sounds it is. Whey is a much better choice if you can tolerate dairy. Tera's Whey makes some delicious flavors that are sweetened using stevia instead of artificial sweeteners and are free from the fillers that a lot of mainstream brands have. It does tend to clump unless you're using a shaker bottle, though.

That said, my ultimate reccomendation goes to Garden of Life. They just came out with thier new Organic Plant Protein this year, and it's really yummy. The vanilla is my favorite, but they also make it in chocolate, coffee, and smooth energy. Super smooth compared to most plant proteins that I've tried. Plus, it has a probiotic and enzyme blend in it, so that's always nice too!

Thank you for that. Someone needed to say it.

As for me, Optimum Nutrition - Chocolate... but to each his own.

Now, because my wife made me go out and find an organic powder - I'm on some horrible stuff I wouldn't recommend to anyone. But at a certain point, you're really just trying to get it in your body. So I don't try to make it special... just toss it in a little water, mixed it up, and choke it down.

Myprotein is a reasonably priced protein brand with many flavours. They usually have sales, and I got like 20% off my order. I purchased four flavour and they were strawberry cream, mint chocolate, toffee, and salted caramel. Strawberry cream was the best one out of the four, it taste like a strawberry milkshake and I take my time drinking it because I enjoy the taste. Toffee was my second favorite, some people say it has a chemically after taste but I didn't notice it. Mint chocolate is one of the highest rated flavours with strawberry cream, but it taste a little more minty than chocolaty which I didn't expect and it is my third favourite out of the four. Salted caramel was my least favourite because it doesn't really taste like caramel, taste more like vanilla with a tiny hint of caramel. When I run out protein and need to grab some more, I'll probably reorder strawberry cream and then try out their other flavours.

i love pure protein brand. i get vanilla so i can add fruit or chocolate.

natlierees · August 2015

Bulk powders berries and cream is amazing! Lemon meringue is good too

pazza164 · August 2015

Hi- I use the my protein range which can be purchased online. I use toffee flavour often and that doesn't taste too bad

loic901 · August 2015

Here is some of the best taste protein powder i usually get: ultra peptide 2.0, syntha-6 and some of the muclepharm line

hgycta · August 2015

I'm really picky and mainly stick with Quest's Vanilla Milkshake flavor protein powder (the other flavors are good, but nothing amazing in my opinion, although I'm anxious to try the new Salted Caramel and Banana Cream flavors), Spiru-tein protein powder (admittedly only tried Blueberries & Cream but was very impressed), and anything from MusclePharms line of protein powders (I try to stick to their Combat since I don't need anything fast releasing, but their 100% isolates taste really good too)

I was talking strictly about the best taste, "big man". In that regard, protein is not protein... Never said anything about the brands sucking or spiking the protein powders with fillers. But if you want to drink something that tastes like chalk, then be my guest.

Lol I've seen many of your posts on here and you come off as if you knew it all. My statement still stands..PROTEIN IS PROTEIN. What might tastes like "chalk" to you might not taste as bad to someone else. If taste matters to you in a protein shake, your doing this *kitten* completely wrong. Also, I'm aware of protein spiking which is another reason why I choose not to buy protein powders anymore but as stated earlier, I will not make a stupid comment like you about what's the best.

Anyways, way to reply to this a month later BIG MAN.

Are you done puffing your chest now, big man?

If having tried upwards of 45 protein powders claims that I know it all, then I guess I know it all.

I know taste is subjective. But thousands upon thousands of collective third party opinion proves you wrong (you know... other people saying it is good/bad tasting}.
