So when I started I bought 4 or 5 protein powder. Never loved any of them but learned to used them in my shakes to use them up. I grew accustom to the vanilla malt shake from pro performance at Costco. It is gone. Used my Chile and I'm now using bariatric advantage to use it up. It makes everything thick but not foamy. It is time to make a new purchase but I'm afraid! Between the cost and the servings it lasts a long time! I usually order online. I use click one scoop in the morning and I've never bought a chocolate flavor. I bought a syntax mint chocolate chip based on everyone's opinion. It should be here tomorrow. But what basic powder do you use?

I use Unjury chocolate. Also Body Fortress, chocolate, vanilla and chocolate/peanut butter. You can get it at Walmart, Meijers, some drug stores. But Walmart and Meijers are the cheapest. Unjury I ordered it online.

Why not get samples before ordering a big tub? You can get tons of samples at vitalady.com. Also you can get some from unjury.com.

I like the chocolate isopure. It only has 3 carbs. The vanilla is awful though. Only the chocolate is good in my opinion.

I'm a huge fan of vanilla Jay Robb whey protein. It mixes up easily, is smooth and doesn't get thick and clumpy, and it's sweetened with Stevia instead of artificial sweeteners. It tastes like vanilla cake batter! I mix half a scoop into my cottage cheese and it makes it like a creamy dessert.
