    I don't think you can beat Myprotein for quality, huge selection, taste and price.

    Is that what you use @Christine_72 ?

    Yes, except i have to sub with other protein powders when I'm waiting for my package to arrive. I live in Australia and my last order took nearly 3 weeks to get to me. This time i ordered an 11lb bag, so should last a few months. I use whey impact Isolate in choc/peanut butter flavour, and it tastes delicious which is very important to me.

    Good to know... yes the taste of it is important :laugh: What do you mix yours with, water?

    Well if I end up ordering from them I'll contact you first and get your referral link. :smiley:
    Thanks!

    Ok no worries, happy to refer :smile:

    I mix mine in milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, smoothies, ice cream and i make a yummy dessert called Protein sludge. I've never actually had protein powder mixed with just water, i always make a meal out of it.

    Just now saw your response...
    @Christine_72 :laugh: with a quick glance I thought you said "I mix it in wine" Not sure how I misread that looking at it now... I just knew I'd never heard that one shared before

    You got some great ideas to mix it in, minus the wine that is! Thanks for the share :wink:

    I added in a protein supplement too because I was having a hard time getting in enough protein for my deficit/exercise/strength training and I am trying to combat muscle loss while I lose. I tried a bunch of single-use packs from the store in a variety of liquids. My favorite combination, one that I drink every morning, is the Garden of Life raw organic protein powder, unflavored, and I mix it with freshly juiced green juice (a mix of vegetables and fruits).

    Everyone seems to have different tastes though, so my recommendation is to go to a store that carries that kind of thing and invest in the single serving packets till you find something you like. Then go online and find the cheapest source.

    Either Plant Fusion or Vega Protein and Greens. Both have the biggest plant protein numbers at the lowest calories and either can be used as a meal replacement. Especially made for easy digestion, covering all BCAAs and totally delicious.

    I love isopure zero carb. Makes it pretty easy to hit my macros perfectly and taste great. They have a whole bunch of different flavors, but I get vanilla

    One to not try- Sunwarrior Vanilla. It tastes like what I imagine raw pancake batter tastes like...

    I second BSN Syntha-6, I love all the chocolate flavors. It's higher carb than most powders (if you're currently using a meal replacement shake you're probably used to having some carbs anyway) but well worth it for the flavor.
    My other favorite is MTS Nutrition Machine Whey, again a little higher carb (not as high as the BSN though) but well worth it for the taste. Just ordered another 5 lbs of cookies and cream.
    I can't drink Quest because of the texture. I dislike Optimum Nutrition because it has a watery taste no matter how you mix it.

    You're going to get so many answers to this question haha. As mentioned above the Cytosport Muscle Milk for me was reallllllllly good. My go-to now however is Combat Powder by MusclePharm in Chocolate Milk or Cookies and Cream Flavor. My sister used to work at Bodybuilding.com so I used to get a lot of free powders back in the day and tried a lot. I love these two though. I went to amazon.com and read reviews on a ton of them, and that's what really pointed me to these two. Good luck!! :)

    I like Vega One, kinda a nutritional supplement too...50 % daily required vitamins and minerals, Omega3, pre and probiotics, fiber, greens, antioxidants etc.

    Same here. Whey protein makes my tummy feel AWFUL so I use the Vega One powders. Chocolate powder with almond milk and a banana blended in is delicious :)

    IMO the best quality isolate vs cost per serving vs protein per serving you can get.....and great flavours to boot. I also use The Protein Works custom builder to create a custom Casien. These are my two go to protein shakes.
