I like Premier Protein in banana and strawberry. They also have a creame caramel, but it's hard to find. Costco and Sams sell them. So does Walmart. I also like Necter, available on amazon.

Syntrax Nectar makes lots of different flavors and they sell a variety pack so you can try different ones. Also, Unjury sells a chickens soup protein that's really good when you get sick of sweet. They also have unflavored which can be added to things. Just keep in mind what you like prior to surgery can change after surgery so I wouldn't buy a ton of stuff but it's good to try things so you have an idea before hand.

I like Premier Protein and Syntrax as well. Don't stock up on a lot of one kind. What you like before surgery you may not like after surgery.

You can also do a lot with chocolate and vanilla. Add a sprinkle of SF pudding or jello in different flavors, torani syrups, etc.

OMG I was on a two week liquid diet before surgery and a two week liquid diet after surgery and I got soooo tired of shakes! Especially sweet ones. My go-to was Unjury Chicken Soup flavor protein powder that I would whisk into warm water made with bouillon.

There are a zillion awesome ideas on Shelley's World According to Eggface blog. She saved me! http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/06/my-fa vorite-protein-shake-recipes.html
