Protein Powders

[Bikingmomof3]

I use GNC's 100% whey protein powder in either chocolate or french vanilla.

I use this one:



We like their chocolate and vanilla. I've been wanting to venture out and try other flavors but I don't want to buy a big tub and possibly end up not liking it.

I know! They should be like the Spirutein, and come in tiny 1x packs to try 'em, then you can make the commitment and buy 5lbs. =D

I like anything that has a lot of vitamins and minerals with it; I tend to forget my multivites in the morning, so putting a scoop or two on my cereal is a workable replacement.

No brands for you, though, but I'm really liking whey protein. I think it mixes better than soy, but it might be a matter of the brands, too.

EXACTLY

The only trial size packs I've found around here are actual MRP's and I don't want that - just the protein, dangit!

I like Vitamin World's house brand of vanilla whey protein. I would like to try chocolate, but the vanilla is so versatile for smoothies with fruit and such, and I even put it on my cereal (along with milk), and I can't think of nearly as much to do with the chocolate so have not bought it.

well, right now we have a tub o chocolate from designer protein which is pretty good. don't know where my husband got it. we also have a tub of trader joe's vanilla whey not opened yet. eager to see how it is. finally I have some soy at work that i'm not so fond of. I agree the soy is not as good, at least this brand isn't . it is a lot more clumpy in texture and taste.

Let us know your vedict on Trader Joe's Vanilla Whey. I shop there all the time, but did not want to buy a tub of it to discover I did not like it. I have used Designer and liked it fine. GNC is about the same, slightly smoother (it was on sale, so I switched brands) I am getting very low, so I will be buying more soon.
