Where're the vegans at?

Hello!

Would like a suggestion for vegan protein powder.

Reading reviews is getting me nowhere. Thinking about Myprotein vegan blend.

I usually eat around 180g of protein a day. I would like something I can blend with ice and water and sometimes a banana.

Any ideas?

    They're probably all in the vegan group: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/45-happy-herbivores

    I like Vega (I usually get the Clean Protein version). Some people think it has a chalky taste, but I don't have a problem with it.

    A lot of brands sell individual packets. Do you have a health food store near you? Or maybe Amazon. Whole Foods sells a number of brands in packets as well. My health food store also gave me some samples when I asked.

    They are a couple of bucks each but I highly recommend trying a few if you can. Protein powder can vary greatly by brand-and in my experience vegan options were even worse, ie the bad ones were REALLY BAD. I personally like "satis fast" and thought Vega was disgusting.

    I usually use USN Vanilla which tastes good to but not vegan.
    I would prefer to get samples because I know I am a bit fussy how it tastes.
    I remember use hemp protein for a while but I just got sick of the flavour and all the extra stuff I had to add just to make it tolerable.
