I've been seeing a lot of this type of protein powder on social media. Has anyone on here tried this brand? People always advertise and give a discount code so i'm not sure if they just get a cut and if it's a pyramid scheme or if it's an actual good tasting powder.

    I tried the chocolate peanut butter and chocolate frosted cupcake and thought they were disgusting. I ended up throwing them out as I could not choke them down. I know other people who like that brand but I just found it to be absolutely horrible.

    What exactly did you not like about them? Were they artificial tasting? Or was the texture chalky? Just out of curiousity

    The texture was fine. The taste is what I didn't like. I don't know that I would call it artificial tasting. I just didn't like it at all. I usually get either Optimum Nutrition or the generic GNC brand in either chocolate or vanilla. I'm not sure if you've had either of those but I think they are much better than the ones I threw out.

    Optimum nutrition gold standard is by far the best protein powder I've had!

    The PES is delicious, especially the Snickerdoodle and peanut butter cookie. They have a 7 serving sample size (cute size jars) as well as single serving packets you can buy on their website to test it. Not a Pyramid scheme.

    I thought their Frosted Chocolate Cupcake was one of the best tasting chocolate protein powders I ever tasted.

    Granted, I'm speaking from a small range of sampling. I have limited experience of protein powders.

    Saying that, on its own as a shake for a snack, I don't think PES is very satisfying or filling.

    In that regard, I think Quest is the most satisfying. Quest's chocolate shake is horrible tasting, though.

    I just bought snickerdoodle and chocolate frosted cupcake. Just tried snickerdoodle and it's very good! I don't drink protein powder I usually mix with oat mean or make an ice cream and top with some cereal and a little Hershey chocolate or caramel syrup. It was yummy!
