    So many choices! I wish they had sample-sizes for sale so you could try some of these before investing money in the giant jugs and then finding out the one you bought is awful! Guess I'm going to just have to go out on a limb and get one...something chocolate for sure!

    I LOVE the double stuffed cookie and wanted to try the Chocolate Truffle... I called the company and they have a sampler!

    So far the only ones I have tried are the Jillian Michaels chocolate (made by Pure Protein) and EAS Lean 15 vanilla. They've worked great in the shakes I like to make for a treat. They were my first to try b/c I was able to pick them up cheap w/o having to order online (around $10 for the JM - although it's a small tub, I didn't want to invest a lot before knowing I'd actually *use* these types of products; and $13 for the EAS b/c I had an $8 coupon, bigger tub more servings but after trying the chocolate I knew I'd use it). I want to hop online and try some of these other amazing flavors from other manufacturer's that people are always talking about. Gotta talk DH into letting me spend more $$ on these big tubs, though...

    I drink rice protein powder, I've tried several and I like them all. Right now my fave is prairie naturals.

    Just as another option- I stopped using protein powder since so many of them have so much weird stuff in them and have been loving greek yogurt as a protein replacement! Vanilla and fresh fruit- most of the days protein, much more natural for me! Good luck!

    Optimum nutrition makes great protein powder that has 24 grams of protein for 120 calories. I have had their cookies and cream and french vanilla flavors. Both are great mixed with 4oz of milk and 4oz of water. Also, I often use the french vanilla powder in green or regular fruit smoothies on the days I am home and it works very well in there.

    I really lie Dymatize Iso 100 Hydrolyzed Whey Protein. It's 106 calories with 24g of protein and only 1 carb. It mixes really well and tastes great.

    I haven't tried many, but I really like Designer Whey... I usually get chocolate but the vanilla and strawberry (if you can find it) are yummy too. Only 100 cals and tasty enough to drink on its own with just water if you don't want to use more calories for a smoothie.

    Spiru-tein banana or cookies and cream one. The only ones I like. It's only 99 cals per sachet / scoop and it's like having a milkshake!

    I have spend a lot of money, and been very dissappointed. I am really sensative to after taste. Nu Tek Pro 5 is the only one so fat that doesn't give me an after taste. Some didn't give an after taste until a couple weeks or month of using it. I've been using Nu Tek for over a year with no problem. Several flavors. My husband likes the ones I don't, but we both swear by it. Also I want the most bang for my buck, Nu Tek is 145 cal, 32 g protein with only 1 g fat.

    Go to an actual supplement store and they'll let you try a sample of whatever you're considering.
