Does such a thing exist? Any recommendations for something that tastes decent as well? My current one has sucralose (IIRC), and it's way too sweet and leaves an aftertaste that is still there hours (and many meals/snacks) later.

    Jillian Michaels Pure Protein Whey Protein has the least I've found...it does have "fructose" listed but it is way down on the list and says its sweetened with Stevia.

    I like the Triple Chocolate Shake. Walmart $9.97 per can.

    Naturade makes a great one. I found it at a local health food store.

    I currently use Designer Whey French Vanilla, it has stevia- it's not too sweet. I usually toss it in the blender with fruit.

    The gal on bodyrock sells one that is flavorless and has no sweeteners. You can also do egg whites that are pasturized or powdered egg whites.....

    I use Dymatize All-natural Chocolate protein powder. If you get this one, make sure you order the "all natural" one... the other version has artificial sweetener in it. It's definitely one of the best tasting protein powders I've had.

    I use Arbonne's Chocolate Protein Shake, and I love it. No artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors. One serving has 20g of protein, and is it vegan too (no whey protein), as far as know, the only one out there without dairy. The protein source is from cranberry, rice and green pea, so it's highly digestible. I combine it with their Fiber Boost, and it totally fills you up as a meal. I have an ID number, so if you want to order some, I can help you. Good luck!

    the best tasting ones I have found are body fortress. I am not a fan of the fake sugar either.

    Now Sports natural 100% whey isolate (unflavored, unsweetened)

    I LOVE this stuff. It's pricey but top quality with nothing added.

    I'm about to buy 10lbs from Amazon for $100. Figure it should last me around 6 months. I paid ~$16 for my 1.2 lb jars.

    I use Shakeology. Stevia in that. I like that is has more nutrients than most others.

    I use Jarrow's brown rice and whey protein powders. Both are stock with nothing in them so I mix in my own fruits and stevia (if needed).

    There doesn't appear to be an overlap between the recommendations here and the 'un-recommendations' in the worst protein powder thread. I'm going to look at several of these, and hopefully can find something that will taste good, has the right nutrient balance and comes in small enough quantities I can actually try before investing in a giant tub.

    I think you will like it. Just as any of the others...it won't taste like a milk shake, but I'm sure it could be jazzed up in a blender (I just shake mine with water). The main seller for me was all natural, and no after taste!

    I use the natural flavor from Bio Sports. It's just whey, no added sugars or sweeteners of any sort. Don't know how it would taste in just water, but it's fine mixed in a glass of milk or non-dairy milk (like almond). And it's great added to smoothies, just makes them a little creamier.

    Teraswhey is good but expensive, Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Natural is good and cheaper but higher carb/calorie since its fructose sweetened.
    I went through this same search last year and ended up settling on the ON Gold Natural for the price and availability (amazon).

    Ditto, but they no longer have Subscribe & Save as of a month or two ago :sad: I just had to suck it up and order a new tub at the regular price.

    Also, I don't have the label here in front of me, but pretty sure ON Natural is sweetened with Stevia and has no fructose. You may be thinking of their "Oat & Whey" which I think has some actual sugars in it. According to my food diary from yesterday, the ON Natural chocolate has 5g of carbs in 1 scoop, which for my purposes is close enough to 0.
