Protein Powder that tastes good??

[Booty]

HELP! I've tried everything. It's gotten to the point where I have to drink it out of a travel mug with a lid because even the smell makes me gag before I've even tasted it. Does anyone have some recommendations? I keep hearing about this Nutracelle Nutralean shake powder but it's one of those MLM things and it's quite expensive. Carb count isn't a huge deal for me IF there is a good amount of fibre in the shake.

What are you mixing it with water?

Blech...nope...I could never do that. I've tried almond, coconut and most recently, cashew milk. It's the heavy protein taste/smell that comes through for me and I can't stand it. I did end up sending for a few samples of that Nutracelle stuff and I didn't mind it. It's expensive as hell though...

You need to use water. Be careful with supplements as a lot of the cheaper ones and also expensive ones are full of sugars/sweeteners.

@trinity Why do I have to use water? Wouldn't that make the shake taste even worse?

The new one is sweetened with Stevia....so I think that's alright....I wish I could find one that I like as well as this one that doesn't cost me $85 a bag....

USP Labs Modern Protein. I mix one scoop with 8 oz very co.d 2% milk, 2 ice cubes and a teaspoon of peanut butter to boost the protein. I have been using protein powder for decades having been a competitive athlete in my younger days.

USP labs is a great company and their products are pure and effective.

These however are not MRP(meal replacements) these are protein supplement shakes.

I bake with it as well. PM me for some delicious and healthy recipes

It's full of godawful sweeteners and all kinds of other things I can't pronounce, but back before I went full pea and brown rice protein, I always found USN to be the tastiest one...

USN pure protein GF-1 strawberry flavour, it was like liquid crack! 

But, I've got a new rule, if I can't pronounce it, I ain't eating it!

however,

One scoop of pea protein, one scoop of rice protein, handful of blueberries, handful of raspberries and finally 1 tsp manuka honey? Blend it right up... Now that's the shit ; ).  Much tastier than any sixteen different sweetener adulterated, bovine lactose, whey concentrate/isolate filled bucket of poison!!

Makes it easier to digest.
I would stay away from any sweeteners 'natural' or not.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
