    It was not a powder but I was in a pinch and picked up a tube of Body Fortress Super Whey Protein Shot, Fruit Punch flavor. It was horrific... like biting into a gelcap cold pill. If the taste was not bad enough, the aftertaste was impossible to get rid of.

    Body Fortress Chocolate Peanut Butter - blech!

    I like Body Fortress Strawberry.

    Body by Vi tastes THE BEST but not crazy about macros (or the cost)

    GNC Vanilla. Tasted like aspirin-flavored ice cream.

    And the chai flavour as well, leaves a nasty aftertaste.

    HAHA YES ISOPURE MANGO PEACH IS THE WORST THING I HAVE EVER TRIED.
    No.. really. I mean, I thought I could just force it down. Not even possible haha.

    Best proteins I've had are Platinum Hydro Builder in chocolate. It's really thick and fulling so it mixes well with water. Tastes like chocolate pudding.

    And Promax peanut butter chocolate. AMAZING flavor. Crazy overpriced though.. but the taste it worth it.

    GNC has a return policy on their proteins.. As long as you haven't used more then half they usually take it back. Tell them it's not agreeing with you and pick up something else to try.

    Optimum Nutrition Double Chocolate and Extreme Milk Chocolate. Both garbage. I bought 5lb tubs too, took forever to get rid of them. Had to mix them half and half with some Myofusion Milk Chocolate to make them even bearable. Never again!

    I picked up their chocolate so I can leave it at my desk, and honestly it's not much better at least to me

    I take Selekta Clear which was prescribed to me - it's Rice Protein for liver detox and it's Vanilla Orange flavoured.....seriously....who the eff picks "vanilla orage" as a flavour. I flipping hate creamsicles. And there is no other choices. Thank goodness I'm almost off it.

    Blech!!!

    I have another rice protein powder that's Prarie Naturals Cafe Caramel flavoured and it's not bad!
    Although I find that rice based ones are SUPER SUPER chalky, but i'm getting used to it.

    Oh? I did not know this. I am going to try that! I've barely used it so they should return it.

    Thanks for the info!! :)

    New to the powdered stuff and the only one I have tried is Body Fortress Strawberry( Walmart lol). I mix it with diluted almond milk in a blender cup and it is satisfying. I going to try some other brands though...

    Muscletech Vanilla. It seriously has a metallic taste.

    I love Muscletech Vanilla. Hy-Vee brand chocolate and Pure Protein Cookies and Cream have been the worst I have had so far.
