    I use the Biggest Loser Vanilla. I like the flavor in my skim milk, but it does have less protein (and less calories agaisnt some brands) than others. But I don't need a lot, usually I just use it as a boost after a particularly heavy weight lifting day at the gym. I didn't really shop around though. I tried a couple that I didn't like, and a friend had the Biggest Loser brand powder so I tried it and really liked it. I have another friend who likes the Jillian Michael's Whey powder in chocolate.

    Shaklee carries the Cinch protein shakes in 4 flavours (chocolate, latte, vanilla, strawberry) and they are ALL delicious!!

    I use Unjury - Chocolate Splendor, Vanilla and Unflavored - the strawberry is a little sweet for me, but good for making smoothies in the summer.

    For fruity, I like Nectar - the fuzzy naval tates like orange / pineapple juice and is awesome.

    A blender bottle is definitely needed for most protein shakes.

    The only other one I liked was from GNC, Lean shakes - they are tasty, but have a higher sugar count than the unjury and Nectar.

    I use the Jillian Michael's Pure Protein. Here's how I make it and it's good.
    I use one cup of ice
    1 scoop of the Triple choc protein
    1 1/2 cup of Unsweeten Almond Vanilla Milk
    (sometimes I add on tablespoon of natural peanut butter)
    I put all this in my "Magic Bullet" and blend
    It's like having a "good for me" milk shake.

    The almond milk is what helps it taste good. You can use the regular vanilla almond milk, however I am diebetic so I use the unsweetned. Hope this helps.

    Optimum Nutrition in Double Rich Chocolate is not too bad. Trutein is amazingly good- especially the Chocolate-Peanut Butter Cup flavor.

    The best one I've tasted is Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey in the Double Rich Chocolate flavor.

    Ditto -- I think it's really, really good. I add a little crushed ice to mine and it's like a milkshake. :)
    If you all like ON Double Rich Chocolate, you should try their Extreme Milk Chocolate flavor. It puts the Dbl Rich Chocolate flavor to shame.
