Protein powder

Looking for a good tasting and palatable protein powder. I'm sick of chalky texture. Vanilla preferred.

    This is my favorite vanilla. It also mixes well with some of the clear wheys I have, like lemonade and orange

    UK? US? Somewhere else?

    Also, IME, what you mix it with makes a huge difference. I mix with coconut milk which has a whole bunch of good stuff in it and a slight flavour, whereas product suggests water is ok!

    I love trutein. I am 225 5’10”. I have about 16-17% body fat so lean is important. I eat 250 grams per day so shakes make that convenient. That being said taste is very important. I never get tired of the taste. I consume about 4 pounds every eight days. I change flavors every eight days.

    Get yourself some unflavored and add natural flavoring that you like. I use isopure unflavored. Most flavored powders add tons of junk that 1) isn’t good for you; 2) adds chemical junk to lower the quality of what you’re buying. You’ll get better flavor, less chemicals.
