AllMax IsoFlex ... Haven't had it in awhile, but they have a chocolate flavour with choco bits .. You have to swish your drink around to get the bits of choco.

Just inhaled a Trutein Cinnabun shake with milk: as advertised. Very tasty for a protein shake, hid the sucralose taste, and blended well. Good stuff at a steep price.

priceplow.com they find the cheapest per gram or oz and link you to that site.

I have found that EAS with Whey BCAAs @ BJs is hard to beat for content and price.
23g per scoop @ 120 calories and mid/upper 30 dollar range for a 5 dollar bag.

My next step is to start taking Casein before bed.

BPI is on wheycheap today, $30 for 5lbs. Tough to beat. I can't speak too much about the profile.

I have about 6 of those now. It mixed sooo much better and doesn't leak a drop.

Love blender bottles. We have 3, the lid seal is the best part, they are beefy mofo.

Thanks for the heads up, but it's crap. Only 50 servings and it has a lot of carbs.

I prefer something like this. I use a 16oz plastic cup, put in the protein and water, mix it up with the hand blender then throw away the cup...no cleanup! Well, aside from singing off the blender real quick.

The Kaizen stuf I use, I just stir. Nice not needed a special contraption.

I finally got my Truetein samples in. The flavor is really good, but it seems to mix really thick compared to the powders I've used in the past (ON, Nectar) - like drinking cupcake batter. Flavor is really good though.

i haven't had that experience with my Trutein at all...

but after further review i think the Cinnabun is a bit "overdone"... could do without some of the sweetness...

their milk chocolate flavor is pretty good though...

I got some of that as well, some of the vanilla, and chocolate peanut butter. I'll try them and see.

It was strange - I used an extra half cup of unsweetened almond milk and it was still too thick for me (that's what she said? ) I tried the Cinnabon flavor this morning.

I've been using Nectar in Chocolate Truffle and it mixes on the thin side, so maybe it's just me being used to that.

I bought a tub of Dymatize Elite Whey Isolate in chocolate mint, and it's solid for $37. Mixes great, 117cal/24g protein per serving, and the taste is good. Not Trutein good, but at over 15 bucks less I'm not complaining.

EAS chocolate whey [23g protein per scoop](from Target) mixed with 1/2 glass Silk dark chocolate almond milk/ 1/2 glass water (or 1/2 choc soymilk 1/2 water) is tasty.

I stir it in when it's 1/2 full, add water, stir again. It's still chunky, but I deal with it. I just treat it like a big shot.

I equated it to a friend of mine as being "like blowing a giant chocolate goblin"

Once I start doing long Saturday outdoor bike rides again, I'm probably going to try the Gatorade recovery drink. Not as much protein (15g IIRC), but it seems to make more sense logistically. Keep it in a cooler, chug it down before loading the bike back into the car in the bike path parking lot.

That's weird. If I have any complaints about the flavor, it's that there's too much cinnamon.

From my experience, every protein mixes just fine with one of these.

I'm currently cutting weight, and made the switch from cytosport to ON because its a much "cleaner" protein. I'm still curious about myofusion tho. Hear a lot of good things about it.

Myofusion tastes great, and is relatively low-cal per serving. 150. A few calories here and there shouldn't make or break anyone's diet.
