Isopure Dutch Chocolate, 50g of protein per serving, 1g of fat, 3g of carbs, 220 calories, and it's delicious0

Trutein.
Because:
1) They disclose the ratios of protein they use rather than hiding it in a "proprietary blend" (which means the manufacturer can put whatever ratios they want and don't have to tell you).
2) It's a blend of whey, casein and egg - so both fast and slower-digesting proteins.
3) It tastes freaking delicious. Chocolate Truffle is my favorite, but Cinnabun is really good also. The casein also makes it thicker than a straight whey shake, which I like. Can't stand watery shakes.
4) It mixes up easily in a shaker bottle. Don't get dry clumps of protein in my drink and don't need to dirty a blender just to mix a shake.0 -

I mix it with 8 oz. nonfat milk and usually add 4 oz. water also just to make the shake a little bigger.
The Chocolate Truffle tastes good enough to me that I consider it as much a "treat" as I do a supplement. I've tried a lot of different protein powders and this is the first one that I actually enjoy drinking.
They also make a protein pudding mix which is pretty good (I've only tried the chocolate). I'll have that as my nighttime snack a few nights a week. The stuff mixes up nice and thick, and if you refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes before you eat it, it's as thick as cake frosting!0 -

I guess I should add the disclaimer that I don't work for them or own stock in the company or anything, lol. I tried their protein after hearing a few recommendations from other people and it turned out that they were right and I liked it. Another nice thing is that you can order sample packets of different flavors pretty cheaply off their website, so you don't have to commit to a 2 lb. tub of something you end up hating. 0

I'm trying to get up into healthy weight range atm, so have been using Musashi Bulk Extreme protein in Choco Mint flavour. Mixed with skim milk it gives 51g protein, 10g fat, 65g carbs and 556 calories a serve.
The Choco mint is awesome because I'm able to mix my vital greens powder in with it and the "grassy" taste just kind of blends with the fresh zing of the mint and it is just delicious!!0 -
NLA for her

Oo The Choco mint sounds really good speaking of grassy, anybody know of any protein shakes that are mostly natural extracts ?

I like the Met-Rx brand myself.
Tastes decent and fits nicely into my macros/calorie goals.
