    I've been thinking of trying Slim-Fast High Protein Mix. I am new to all of this, any ideas?

    GNC Vanilla. Tasted like aspirin-flavored ice cream.

    Muscle Milk...hate the taste. I have 2 tubs sitting in the pantry waiting for dooms day and thats my last option.

    I use Apex Fit chocolate and drink it with water and PB2 at least once to two times a day and love it.

    I haven't tried any of the protein powders yet. My best friend told me about one that she's using, but some of the ones in this topic sound awesome. I might have to get more than one can, totally taking notes too. :smile:

    I had a free sample of Sun Warrior pea protein. It was the nastiest thing I've every tasted.

    Whole Food's Vanilla Soy Protein powder, didn't taste like vanilla at all and it had a yucky aftertaste. Almost gave up on protein powder after trying that one since that was the first one I had tried. Luckily my MFP friends assisted me before buying any more powder and I have much better tasting protein powders now.

    Anything with whole egg or egg white powder.. they actually taste pretty good but give me horrible indigestion and stomach upset!.. Real eggs don't bother me at all.. weird ain't it.

    Personally I can't stay anything with whey in it. I have some weird allergic reaction to it plus they all have a weird aftertaste to them. YUCK!

    I've only tried Amp Wheybolic in a cookies and cream or vanilla flavosr. They are fine by me. I usually just do one scoop right after my workout. I found out that mixing a little crushed ice in there and chilling it like that makes it even better

    ON caramel toffe fudge.... was ok to begin with but leaves a funky after taste and tastes odd with fruit so I resorted to mixing with just enough water to make it flow and would chug it.

    Market Pantry Vanilla - lumpy no matter how it is mixed and tastes cheap.
    Whhhhaaaat? I use the market pantry vanilla and love it! Maybe my standards are low since it's my first protein powder, but I never had problems with lumps? /shrug

    I've tried lots of nasty protein powder. Many of the store bought ones have an after taste that lingers forever. I'm in love with the Vi-Shape mix from Visalus. Best I've ever had.

    Me too! It is awesome. My results where stalled for months before I tried it, now I am dropping weight so easy! LOVE ViSalus!

    Lean Body 40g RTD Strawberries and Cream!!! I could not finish get half way through the shake.

    My favorite is either Gladiator Vanilla (from Smoothie King) or Isopure Creamy Vanilla with strawberries and pineapples.

    Only problem with this is it is mighty expensive and about half the protein as other powders. Tastes good! Macros aren't too great though

    ^ Agreed! This stuff was nastyyyy.
    I didn't like Muscle Milk either.

    I'm using this stuff called GAC Prolein now. Pretty good; my only problem is it may be TOO chocolaty for me! Haha.

    There is a vegetable protein you can get on Amazon.com. Its horrible tasting and for me was not digestible.
