    Can't remember the name, but I picked up mine at GNC, along with a BCAA supplement. I have FODMAP problems, and at the time cut out dairy on an elimination diet to get my gut under control, so got the whey Isolate (not the concentrate extract - went for lower FODMAP stuff). I have also tried the stuff at wal-mart; not bad, but got burned out on the flavor about 2/3 through that huge azz canister.

    I've tried a few and disliked the vegan stuff I tried first. For flavor, I've settled on GNC Amp pure isolate (whey/25 grams protein per scoop) in Vanilla Custard and Chocolate Frosting flavors. The vanilla I use at home in smoothies with almond milk, banana, and greens, the chocolate I can tolerate with just water, so I keep it in my office and shake one up before I hit the gym.

    If you are looking for a plant based one, Olly makes one that is less gritty than others, especially when mixed with unsweetened cashew milk. It is pricey though for the number of servings you get.

    If you are looking for whey I agree with previous posters, Quest is very good. My favorite is the cookies and cream flavor. It also has a nice amount of servings in 1 tub.

    If you are looking at plant-based, I like Orgain and Life's Basics. I add something to them (cinnamon, blueberries, raspberries, or occasionally almond milk).
