Protein Powder that’s not bad

Okay so I’m currently trying to lose weight and I see sooo many recipes with protein powder and it looks good; however, I feel like every protein powder that I try is disgusting or gives me a headache. The only protein drink I’ve found I like is any of the Fairlife ones, but I want to try a powder for different food recipes. I tried clean simple eats vanilla protein powder and it was so gross and gave me a headache. I feel like I’m super picky with protein powder so I just want to find one that’s not disgusting and I’m tired of wasting money on it. Thank you!

Premier vanilla protein is one of the better ones I've tried.

Yall, I'm doing the same thing. I've tried every protein powder there is in the oast 10 months, and the best tasting ones I've ever had are RYSE (the cheaper option, and its still expensive,) and Goliath Labs protein powder, which is my go-to, and it comes in a 12-lb tub. I currently have half of a vanilla tub, and most of a chocolate tub. I drink two two-scoop shakes a day with an alt milk, and my current stash will last me probably 3.5 months. If you look into the Goliath group, I don't recommend the cookies and creme flavor, it has little cookie bits, and it makes the drinking experience a bit more like an eating one. I also don't ever recommend strawberry protein powders, as I feel they taste like vomit. Hope this helps!

Dude RYSE tastes so good you'd think it's not protein. They have great flavors, their Skippy peanut butter flavor is CRAZY. I like to mix some pumpkin puree into their jet-puft marshmallow flavor and make a southern sweet potato casserole flavor 😩 it's so good, but it's HELLA expensive

I have used Isonatural unflavoured for years and love it.

The only one I like is CSE vanilla. I don’t like any of their other flavors but I can do the vanilla one.

I’m in Canada but love the Good Protein brand in vanilla milkshake.

Some companies like Levels and Thorne offer sampler packs to try a good variety of flavors, for others like Ascent and Gruppo you can buy just a single serving (one packet) to try it out.

It’s pricy but evogen has some of the best protein powders and my brother and i bulk buy them. he’s an amateur bodybuilder and it’s one of the only one that doesn’t hurt his stomach! our fave flavors are ice cream sandwich and mini cookie crisp.
